David Paul, who was one half of the Barbarian Brothers (the other being his twin brother Pete) has passed away at the age of 62 just two days away from his birthday.
Paul was born in Hartford, Connecticut on March 8, 1957, and was mostly known for his role in the 1987 film ‘The Barbarians,’ of which he starred in alongside his brother Peter Paul. Although he and his twin brother also made an appearance in an episode of the ‘Knight Rider‘ and the Oliver Stone film, ‘Natural Born Killers‘.
