Famous pornstar, director and producer Denis Reed has died in a motorcycle accident on Saturday.
On Reed’s Facebook, a representative reports that the accident occured when he lost control of his motorcycle at a sharp right bend and crashed into a tree.
On the way to the hospital, the 31-year-old succumbed to his severe injuries and died.
Reed, also known as Jan Velička, Pavel Matous, Ian Voight, and other porn names, started his career in the adult entertainment industry in 2004, and had since become one of the most well-known porn actors from Eastern Europe.
He had appeared in hundreds of both gay and straight porn. One might recognise his work for sites like CzechBoys, Willam Higgins and Staxus.
He also became one of the guys behind Czech Hunter, reports Queerfever, and worked as a talent scout in Czech Republic.
A Czech news site reports that Reed leaves behind a wife and a young son.
Other sources describe Reed as a huge motorcycle enthusiast, and that his wife had asked him to stop using his motorcycle and to sell it away for his own safety.
The internet is mourning Reed’s death, and sending condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.
