      RIP indeed, I wasn't aware he died years ago until watching this video. I used to watch a lot of Myth Busters episodes that included a lot of his work alongside his co-hosts. It's sad to know his passing, we at least can view the legacy he left behind thru his works on MB and other movies/tv shows.

    This was someone who’s just as old as my dad and honestly a part of me died when he did. Mythbusters was the very reason I’m an engineer today and it all started with a bunch of guys do cool experiments for learning. I think I watched a bunch of Mythbusters episodes after news of his passing broke out, and with lockdowns at that time it sure was a great, albeit somber choice.

    This happened to my step-father. He was home cleaning when he had a major headache and stumbled down the stairs, managed to call an ambulance, and was rushed off. He had a brief period of lucidity before he went in for emergency surgery but never regained consciousness again. They ultimately chose to pull the plug some months later when no brain activity returned.
