18-Year-Old Corbin Fisher Performer Commits Suicide After Firing Gun At Work

luke2An 18-year-old adult film performer who’d appeared in at least three scenes for Corbin Fisher has committed suicide after reportedly firing a gun in the restaurant he’d just been fired from.

Christopher Luke McAteer, who went by ‘Clay’ online, was the suspect in a workplace shooting at Ninki’s Japanese Restaurant in Owensboro, Kentucky. Police reports cite the incident occurring around 8:15 on a Saturday night. McAteer was reportedly arguing with another employee, and was fired after making threats.

About fifteen minutes later, he drove his car past the restaurant and fired five shots at the building. No one was hurt.

He was discovered later that evening in Butler County, KY with a self inflicted gunshot wound, and died at the hospital the next morning, on Easter Sunday.

552461d041d16.image‘Clay’s’ scenes were all removed from CorbinFisher.com, suggesting the studio doesn’t want to be pulled into a conversation about its impact on young, often impressionable performers.

McAteer’s family released a long obituary, some of which reads:

…he was reared in a Christian home where he was taught about the love and sovereignty of God, and, most importantly, the grace and forgiveness found through His son, Jesus Christ. […] Thankfully, Luke knew the Lord, and had recently rededicated his life. He had been pursuing a daily relationship with Christ in the recent weeks before his unfortunate loss with the battle of depression.

Amazing Footage Shows Failed Landing, Crash, Explosion of SpaceX Rocket on Drone Barge: VIDEO

Amazing Footage Shows Failed Landing, Crash, Explosion of SpaceX Rocket on Drone Barge: VIDEO

Spacex_landing

Yesterday, we watched the magnificent lift-off of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket as it hauled supplies to the International Space Station. What wasn’t broadcast live was the attempt to land the first stage of the rocket on a drone barge in the Atlantic Ocean.

Now, footage has been released from a chase plane that shows the failed landing and explosion. The landing was unfortunately a bit too hard. Better luck next time.

SpaceX’s Elon Musk says they’ll try again before the year is out.

Watch, AFTER THE JUMP

9 Things The IRS Would Tweet On Tax Day If It Were Cool

9 Things The IRS Would Tweet On Tax Day If It Were Cool
The IRS is the hottest Twitter account since @CIA. At least, it could be.

Listen, you expect that the IRS’s Twitter feed is not going to be very exciting, and THEN … well, it’s not. It’s a pretty standard government social media feed. Heavy on info, light on fun. But we’re pretty certain that if the IRS could let loose on social media, they would have a Twitter account that looks more like this:

Oh, also don’t audit us, IRS, please and thank you.
