Apparently Swayze has died for real (though I know there have been lots of rumors that have proven to be false):

I admit, he was one of the few "hotties" I really liked--a little girl crush that never went away.

Swayze had an undeniable charisma. Point Break did get me excited about skydiving. I feel a little silly admitting that, but it's true.

cancer sucks!
it just sucks!
it's evil and heartless and will take the best ones out with out so much as a second thought.

Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

And an aff trained skydiver. Will be missed. Too soon.

I was just telling Bill...the one skit (other than cow bell ) that makes me laugh no matter how many times I see it...it's the Swayze/Farley Chip-Off.

I never met Pat, but I knew his brother Don pretty well. He's an accomplished actor, skydiver, and B.A.S.E. jumper.

Sweet dreams Patrick . . .

Don's on the left in the attached photograph.

And here's his filmography . . .

Damn I was hoping he would beat that shit somehow.

I'd like to see anybody beat Pancreatic cancer, actually...what an incredibly horrific disease.

Wow, what do you say? Class act, and actor. I loved Point Break when they did their last speed star. "Johnny, it's 1,000 feet...Pull The Rip Cord!" "After you Alphonse, I Insist!" (Swayze pulls Keauno's pc.) Reeves did an amazing rear riser pull just before he landed in the water for his 1st jump, wouldn't ya say? Swayze was a natural sky diver as well. He loved the sport and got up as many times as he could.

Now he's gone, but not forgotten. He can have all of the tunnel time he wants now. See you when i get there bro. Losing you is a bummer, but you fought the good fight.

it captured the thrills and fun and gave the non jumper a glimpse into skydiving and made them think... I gotta try that.

of course the reality of skydiving is a tad different

They say I suffer from insanity.... But I actually enjoy it.

I am greatly honored to have not only met Patrick, but jumped with him, and his brother,,(not together)

My heart goes out to Don, and his Family, they are one of the closest families I ever met!

the world lost a great person , and an actor!

Yea, I was expecting that 5-way on my first jump or that 3 minute 40 second freefall. Seriously, what a loss, what a lucky guy, I bet if he could have a normal life and live to 80 he would choose what he had EVERY TIME.

RIP Patrick! You were a classy guy!

My dad was 57 as well when he succumbed to this hateful disease.
