34-year-old Dunn appeared in all of the "Jackass" movies -- famously shoving a toy car into his rectum in the first flick back in 2002.

Dunn and an unidentified person both died in the crash which happened around 3 a.m. at Route 322 and New Street in West Goshen Township. It's unclear who was driving the car.

Just hours before his death, Dunn posted a photo on Twitter showing himself drinking with friends.

This is a tragedy, he was such a great actor and a funny person. He will be missed by Jackass and all those people around the world who enjoyed Jackass.

This is sad man, I was a huge Dunn fan. Other than Steve-O, nobody took more crazier stunts than this. I just hope he wasn't drunk, because a picture has been up of him drinking just a few hours before. If that's the case, then that really sucks. Anyway much respect to Dunn, several funny stunts especially the toy car one.

Man he was one of my favourite Jackass blokes and it sucks to hear that he's dead.

Apparently he was travelling at 180km/ph, which I think is 110m/ph, but basically that's damn fast. Also, as mentioned above, he was drinking with mates before crashing, so it could be likely that he was over the limit while he was driving.

Also sad to hear that the other guy in the car with him died too.

An actor? Reality stars are actors now?

So the world just regained some IQ points back, I didn't care for Jackass and considering the way he died, no big loss.

No big loss? Many fans would be really offended by that but your not a fan so whatever. Dunn is very respected, just sad how he died.

I'm like legit depressed right now. I loved Ryan Dunn not just on Jackass but even on Viva La Bam and his own show. All the good memories of him and I love how him and Bam always had a little rivalry on the show but were always friends. Goddamnit I really can't believe it. Out of all of the Jackass guys, he would be the one that I would think would die last.

I'll probably remember him the most on Viva La Bam though. He did some crazy shit and I'll miss him even though I never personally knew him. Alcohol is a drug that seriously fucks up any judgement you have though. Whether he was legitimately wasted while driving or just doing some stunt I don't care personally, it's just sad that he's dead imo so RIP Dunn.

Out of all the Jackass crew he was one of the few I didn't mind.

I have no sympathy for him though considering the way he died. It mentions that he was drinking with his friends hours before and then they crash a car driving at an idiotic speed. I am sorry but that is what happens when you are an idiot and drive under the influence.

Hopefully it will teach some people that alcohol and driving don't mix.

Drinking horse cum garners respect? Now I mourn the fact that people think people like him are to be commended for acting like blueberries.

Guy was drinking and tweeting while driving. No big loss, only sad thing is that he killed somebody with his stupidity thats the real tragedy.

Well outside of rapists, killers etc I tend to think any loss of life, not least at a premature age is anything to make lite off.

Still I am with Troy and deezy, as far as how pointless and annoying shows like Jackass and the people involved with them are. The question is was it all worth for Dunn, and anyone with any common sense would say no.

Was very sad to see this not only because this is someone I've watched since I was a kid but because of the way it went down. Too many people drink and drive and they need to stop. Always have a DD or a backup plan. Don't take the risk to kill someone else because you decide to act like a fucking moron.
