Hi vPyro. No, I'm not the original Theoretical, but, I am his brother. I have sad news to tell you. You all may know Theoretical as a normal person on vPyro, or a former member of a fireworks group. The sad news is, Theoretical, my brother Josh, died last night after being in the hospital for about two weeks after being in a tragic car accident. I am very sad to tell you this news, but, I was just looking through his old internet history, and saw this. I didn't know where to post this, but, I felt I should post it. I will not do any fireworks work on here, but only visit to watch you talented people who play RCT3. My brother Josh used to always talk about RCT3, even at dinner. He told us that he printed out all these guides to make his fireworks perfect, but did not make it to the end of making them perfect. He said as well, that he wanted to do a fireworks recreation of the Titanic theme, and a recreation of a holiday piece. I would fulfill his dream, but I have no clue how to do it. If any of you knew him, maybe you could fulfill his dreams by making it, only to show the rest of vPyro. It's been a sad day for me, and hopefully you loved my brother.

Oh my...this is...well purely saddening. There aren't really words to describe the pure emotion in the situation.
I cannot possibly imagine how you must feel, but I send you and your family my deepest sympathies, and I mean it.
Your brother was an avid member here, a positive contributor, and I'm overjoyed to hear of his passion for the game; I'm positive he was a good kid.
My friend, I do not know you, but please - be safe. I am truly extremely sorry for the loss of a fine individual such as he.

Theoretical was a very good member here. He was always interested in making the shows on RCT3. It's very sad to hear that he died in such a tragic way and I am deeply sorry to hear about it. It's sad to loose such a honest and committed member here.

wooha :O . I'm right now speechless.

13 years old and already leaving this beautifel world :( . Thanks for letting us know as he was one of the newer members that tried really hard on vpyro. he respected our rules good and always has interesting things to say. I was already wondering where he was as he was pretty active and suddenly not, guess this was the reason. I'm really shocked because he's missing so much.

And to the rest of the family. you have my support and respect as something like this always leaves scars. A kid leaving the family at this age is horrible and should not be happening.

Rest in Peace Josh! He'll live on in our harts.

This is really sad, he was definitely a promising member and was there often to provide his input. I can't begin to imagine how tragic this has been for you and your family and friends. My sincere condolences.

R.I.P.

One thing I hate more than anything is people asking questions that are already answered.
Please, read the forums and pinned topics before asking obvious questions.
Thank you.

My best wishes. To pass away at such an early age is a tragedy. I will say a prayer for him tonight.

He actually PM'd me once with some tips as well as personal advice for my young cousin & I could tell he was a generous spirit; know that he will be looking down from heaven & you will see him again one day.

My sincere condolences from France. It's a real tragedy. I hope V pyro will not die too after this.
We should not let the site go down, in order to keep his memory.

I wish a long life to V pyro and his community, even if the master is dead. it's i think the best we can do now.
