Hated his annoying commercials so will not be surprised if a disgruntled viewer didn't murder him.
Still as a person from what I saw of him on the tv series , he seemed like an okay guy.
R.I.P.
 
I've posted it before, but, if you or a loved one gets a bump on the head and you're over the age of 40, you need a CT scan.

The connective tissues/suspensory ligaments in the brain become fragile after age 40, so even a simple bump you could have taken in your youth can kill you...

 
I'll put em both in the rinse cycle

RIP Billy Mays, you were an inspiration to me

I too had no clue who Billy Mays was. So I went a searching. You can get famous for that?

He is considered one of the best pitchmen of all time. The dude made HUGE amounts of money for himself and for those who used him to pitch their products.

He is an american pop culture icon.
 
Sigh... I really enjoyed his new show. He seemed like a very hard worker, and brought smiles to millions with his eccentric sales pitch style. He'll sorely be missed. No one who brings smiles to the world should die so soon 🙁.

Who?

you've got to be the least informed person in atot...

"chiropractic is bullshit"
"who's farrah fawcett"
"who's billy mays"

He isn't from the US either, I doubt you'd know any celebrities from NZ either 😛 It's not like Billy Mays was even a celebrity, either.

Exactly. And chiropractic is bunk, scammer.

Hey, he knows the important stuff.
 
why billy died.
When Michael Jackson got to heaven, he was told he could have anything he wanted. Among other things, one of the things he requested was an unlimited supply of bleach for his skin.

Sounds like it. Liam Neeson's wife Natasha Richardson and now Mays. Similar bump on the head I'm okay until I'm dead kind of thing.

I totally predicted this the other day.

Buddy told me "well that's the death trifecta" and I said that Ed McMahon didn't count cause he was too old, and another was coming.

since when do dead old people don't count as dead?
 
i looked at few of the clips from utube and he seems to be out of it. he was falling into the tub and couldnt get himself to balance on his knees with the sander.

I wouldnt be surprised if he was a hardcore alcoholic or had drug problems.

probably O.D.

This was the "62 and younger" death trifecta.
