David CarradineDavid Carradine was found in a hotel room with a rope “tied around his penis and another rope around his neck” — and police said Friday they believe he could of died of heart failure due to an orgasm.

The 72-year-old Kill Bill actor’s body was discovered in his luxury suite at Bangkok’s Swissotel Nai Lert Park Hotel.

A police officer told reporters that “It is unclear whether he committed suicide or not or he died of suffocation or heart failure due to an orgasm.”

The police officer had originally said that Carradine’s body was found “naked, hanging in a closet,” and that police at the time suspected suicide.

A rep for the late star believes that Carradine wouldn’t have taken his own life.

Initial autopsy results are expected to be released in two days.

Kill Bill star Carradine was part of the famed Hollywood acting family that included his father, John Carradine, brother Keith and niece Martha Plimpton.

    So sad! I heard on the news that he admitted to having suicidal thoughts a few years ago; he said he kept a loaded Colt 45 by his bedside and felt like ending it all sometimes. This was a cry for help! I wish he had gotten the professional intervention he needed. Whether it was suicide or accidental suicide due to erotic asphyxiation, he obviously was a lot more troubled than anyone realized. We have lost a great talent!
