More details are emerging surrounding the death of Jackass star Ryan Dunn, and it seems that alcohol was absoultely a factor in the June 19 car crash that ended his life.

While some people were saying that he had only had “three shots and three beers” the night of the crash, TMZ reports that his blood alcohol level was .196, well over twice the legal limit of .08.

In addition to alcohol, speed was another factor in the car crash.

Ryan was traveling at 130 miles per hour when he crashed his Porsche and died a violent death. The causes of death were due to blunt force trauma to the head in addition to the car bursting into flames. He was 34 years old.
