He got hit in the head during a hard landing of a US Air flight yesterday (tires blew out on landing). This could turn out to be like the actress named Natasha Richardson who died of a seemingly minor head injury during a skiing accident.

Is he famous enough to trigger the butterfly effect of another Global Celebrity Death Trifecta, or would it just be pitch men that kicked off in response? Sham Wow Vince and Ron Popeil, you'd better get your affairs in order, cause an ill-wind is blowing.

They are saying he got hit on the head when his plane landed yesterday. I guess one of the planes tire had a blow out and he got hit by something. His wife said he didnt feel well when he went to bed last night.

I guess Kaboom, Orange Glo and Oxiclean must be more toxic than thought.

No Billy just threw in the fourth death for free. However you will have to pay shipping and handling.:eek:

my mind was cocaine+prostitute=jail. Lol

I copy and pasted his last post on his Twitter Acct - right after he landed in Tampa.........

"realBillyMays


Just had a close call landing in Tampa. The tires blew out upon landing. Stuck in the plane on the runway. You can always count on US Air.

My dad loves those "sham wows."

He said they are GREAT for picking up water, but you wouldn't wanna try and dry and anything with it.

He uses them all the time.
