MANILA, Philippines — Comedian Arvin “Tado” Jimenez was among the 14 people killed when a tourist bus fell into a ravine in Mountain province Friday, police said. Police report confirmed that “Tado” was among the 14 fatalities who died on the spot. Jimenez on Thursday, February 6, even posted on his Instagram account that he has a long trip going to Bontoc town in Mountain Province.


In his last Instagram post, Tado, true to his nature as a comedian, was even able to joke about his grades in elementary.
Meanwhile, friends from the industry immediately mourned Tado's passing.

“Magkakasama lang tayo last week, gulat na gulat ako at nakipag inuman at sinabayan mo pa kami sa kwentuhan. Ang dami pa nating plano at isasama mo pa kami dapat ni waki sa mga adventure ng tour raket mo. Tado Jimenez hindi naman katanggap tanggap etong balita. Napakabuti mong tao at dedicated sa pamilya. Di ko na maintindihan," says Cooky Chua.
