Celebrities Who Killed People in Real Life

Matthew Broderick

Fresh off filming Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (1986), Matthew Broderick and his co-star Jennifer Grey took a trip to Northern Ireland in 1987, but the vacation was tragically cut short when Broderick failed to keep his rental car in the proper lane and collided head-on with a car being driven by a mother and daughter, killing them both instantly. Broderick was badly injured, but Grey escaped relatively unscathed—although according to People, she was traumatized into quasi-retirement. Broderick was reportedly charged with careless driving and fined $175, reported the New York Post.
