Nov. 30 marks the fifth anniversary of Paul Walker's death, and we're honoring his memory with a look back at some of his best photos over the years. Paul's career took off after his role in 1999's Varsity Blues, and after that he starred in films like She's All That, The Skulls, and Takers. He became most recognized and beloved for his role as Brian O'Conner in the Fast and the Furious [1] series, but, tragically, a car crash claimed Paul's life [2] in November 2013 at the age of 40.
