Bud Spencer ist tot: Sein letztes Wort war "Danke" Image copyright EPA Image caption Bud Spencer played in more than 20 films from the 1950s to the 1980s
Italian actor and filmmaker Bud Spencer, who starred in a number of spaghetti westerns, has died aged 86.
He passed away peacefully on Monday in Rome "and did not suffer from pain", his son said.
Spencer, whose real name was Carlo Pedersoli, was known among his fans as the "big friendly giant" of the screen because of his height and weight.
The actor, who was also a professional swimmer, appeared in more than 20 films from the 1950s to the 1980s.
He frequently appeared as part of a double act alongside Terence Hill - whose real name was Mario Girotti.
Spencer"s movies included Double Trouble, Go For It, Ace High, They Call Me Trinity and A Friend is a Treasure.
"With our deepest regrets, we have to tell you that Bud is flying to his next journey," Spencer"s family said on his Twitter account.
The actor"s son, Giuseppe Pedersoli, added: "He had all of us next to him and his last words were "Thank you"."
Paying tribute to the actor, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi tweeted: "Ciao #BudSpencer We loved you so much."

Hollywood star Russell Crowe said: "RIP Bud Spencer. My heart goes out to your family."
The actor was a known fan of Spencer"s work - at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year he thanked a journalist for comparing his double act with Ryan Gosling in The Nice Guys to Spencer and Terence Hill.
Crowe said: "Dude, now you"re talking. That"s a really flattering compliment, thank you very much."
Spencer was born in the southern Italian city of Naples in 1929, but later moved to Rome, where he became a promising swimmer.
In 1950, he became the first Italian to swim 100m in under one minute.
He later abandoned his sporting career and began acting in westerns and comedy films - appearing alongside Hill in 16 films.
The actor said he chose his name as a tribute to his favourite beer Budweiser and US actor Spencer Tracy.

The British vote to leave the European Union is the worst political misstep in Europe since World War II, former Clinton Treasury Secretary Larry Summers said Tuesday.
The EU won"t crumble, but it becomes a "less sound experiment" without the influence of the United Kingdom, he argued.
The fallout of Thursday"s referendum could send Britain into recession, Summers told CNBC"s "Squawk Box," pegging the chances of that at about 50-50.
World central banks have little firepower to throw at potential global economic unrest created by a Brexit, the former Obama administration economic advisor said, calling the current environment the "moment of least capacity" for policymakers to make a difference.
With the European Central Bank in stimulus mode and the U.S. Federal Reserve with only one interest rate hike since 2006 under its belt, Summers said there"s not much room to ease monetary policy further if necessary.

Wimbledon, one of the years most important tennis tournaments, got underway in London today, just days after the host country voted to leave the European Union.
The Brexic vote sent seismic shocks through the global financial markets while causing the value of the British pound to plummet more than 10%. The decline comes at an especially unfortunate time for the worlds top tennis players; they now face the prospect of a devalued pot of Wimbledon prize money at the end of a two-week run at the All England Club.
Wimbledons hosts had announced that this years tournament will pay out a record 28.1 million in prize money to the winners in various categories this year, but the value of that record payout is now more than 11% lower in the wake of Britains EU exit.
The winners of the mens and womens tournaments at Wimbledon will earn 2 million prizesbut after the pounds drop-off, the earnings will be worth roughly $2.64 million, based on the value of the pound when markets closed on Monday. The same amount would have been worth more than $3 million in U.S. dollars before last weeks Brexit referendum.

As point of reference, that means this years Wimbledon champions will make less money than Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams took home for winning their respective categories last year. Last years singles winners were awarded roughly $2.8 million apiece.
The value of sterling on Monday was at a new 31-year low of $1.322 against the dollar. Whats more, there is little hope of the value of sterling rebounding significantly this year, much less before the end of the two-week Grand Slam tournament. Investors are now extremely wary of the British currency, betting that the Bank of England will cut interest rates in coming months, while ratings agencies Standard & Poors and Fitch both downgraded the countrys credit rating on Monday.
Of course, the Wimbledon winners are still getting a decent payday and, fortunately, the All England Club had already opted to give the singles champions a raise of about 6.4% from last year, so that takes away some of the sting.
Antonio Conte kicks the ball during Italy vs Spain match
Any team news?
Italyhave been dealt a huge blow with influential midfielder Antonio Candreva ruled out due to a groin injury.
Antonio Conte made eight changes for Italy"s1-0 defeat to the Republic of Ireland on Wednesday, with qualification to the last 16 already assured.
Juventus stalwart Giorgio Chiellini will return to partner club teammates Andrea Barzagli and Leonardo Bonucci.
Spain coach Vicente Del Bosque used the same starting line-up in the first three matches and is not expected to make any changes.
Alan Smith"s prediction
The clash of the round as two heavyweights collide. If recent history is anything to go by, Spain will be feeling the more confident, their superiority symbolised by the thumping 4-0 win in the Euro 2012 final.
And with Andres Iniesta excelling and Alvaro Morata regularly scoring, the defeat to Croatia should not leave a mark. Italy will hope the same applies to them after making lots of changes for the loss to the Republic of Ireland.
With few impressing, the original lot will come back to try and find the level they did against Belgium. With three familiar stalwarts at the back for Antonio Conte, Italy may sit deep to try and frustrate.
