OMG, it's been a sad week . So sorry to hear and my prayers go out to his family and friends . Imzadi, DH always muted him too.

WOW.
I recently watched one of his Pitchman shows. He had his wife and baby daughter on the show. Lovely family. He also has his son from a previous marriage working with him. How sad. So young.

Wow. Did anything say if he was ever checked out by a doctor. I sure hope everyone else on that flight gets checked out if they haven't been.

I was also one who muted him but it is sad that he has passed away. Fifty is way too young.

Never muted Billy...my DS does an incredible Mighty Putty impersonation. Such a a sad week. All the celebs this week...my FIL last week. Enough. Please, enough.

I couldn't stand him yelling from my tv and would always mute him, but I'm very sad for his family. How horrible.

Mine too. She calls him the guy who screams at you to buy stuff, but she is very sad right now

I dont think I'm going to tell mine. She's become very obsessed with death since she saw our dog die 2 weeks ago.. Mommy when are you gonna die, mommy when are the cats gonna die, mommy when am I gonna die.. I can't take much more of these questions! And they aren't new to death.. my mom died, my dad died, mom gram died all with in the last 3 years. They just never saw a person die or their dead body..

So seems MAYBE the hard landing had something to do with it and perhaps because there are hundreds instead of tens of pounds in the overhead bins now that might have a direct impact on a head injury

Not sure what having the seat belt on or off has to do with something landing on your head or not tho...

Oh geez, sounds like another Natasha Richardson, with that window delay.

It definitely reminds me of Natasha Richardson. Anybody that gets hit in the head or falls and hits their head needs to go to the hospital and get it checked out. I guess we will find out if this had any bearing on his untimely death.

Sad.

What's weird is I asked Michael to start taping Pitchmen for me this morning! When I read this we watched it... wow!

I told Michael he'd better be NICE to me, what with all the 50 somethings going prematurely..

 

[eliza61]

I'm getting a little worried here. Farrah, Michael, now this guy. All of them are 50 ish. Ouch!! Think I'll make an appointment for a physical.
