A horse, but a very notable one: 1998 breeders cup winner (the horse) Awesome Again dead at 26. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Awesome_Again Died at an Old Friends Equine "retirement home" for horses. Other notable horses that live in Old Friends homes include 1996 breeders cup winner Alphabet Soup, animal actor Popcorn Deelites known from the Seabiscuit movie (played Seabiscuit) and Zippy Chippy, a horse known for holding the record of most losses in modern racing.

Films with entirely dead casts
arghton replied to Spade_Cooley's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
Most watched Finnish movie ever, Tuntematon Sotilas (1955) has two alive cast members. Anja Geissbühler will be 83 next february and isn't in a good condition and Taneli Rinne will be 87. Neither one had a big role though. -
A few Finnish president's chief of staffs have died lately (Antero Jyränki b. 1933 this year and Kauko Sipponen b. 1927 last year) so I decided to check how many of these from the era when the president had almost unlimited power (During especially Kekkonen's and Koivisto's tenures. Both are dead now) inside the country are still alive. Here: Kurt Westerholm (b. 1920, died 1973) In office 1958-1966. Richard Tötterman (b. 1926, died 2020) In office 1966-1970. Saw him on television a while ago. Active but very frail and couldn't properly hear what he's saying. Juhani Perttunen (b. 1938) In office 1976-1984. Hasn't been active anywhere for years. Jaakko Kalela (b. 1944) In office 1984-2005. Looks very frail in new photos. Another group of frail people edited 6.3.2021 to add deaths of Westerholm and Tötterman

Edward. Anne looks even worse than what Margaret used to look a couple of years before her death and I bet Charles won't reach 85. Andrew? Nope

Peter Alliss dead. 5 left on number 17. -
Atleast another DECADE? I don't think that will happen, even though I'd not like seeing Charles on the throne.

Finnish reality tv star known mostly for being near death but not dying for the last year, Janita Lukkarinen dead at 27 after fighting cancer atleast one or two years. https://www.iltalehti.fi/viihdeuutiset/a/ff1b9df1-17b4-43d2-b2e3-103bf32fead6 Wanted to live until christmas, but cancer's a bitch

Went with Wade. I'm betting that age and possibilities can cause Lizzy to suddenly die and Wade looks the least like a resurrected corpse. However, it's always the corpse that ends up winning.

Thought I'd recommend singer and musician Pave Maijanen here too. Has ALS, in a bad condition and 70.
-
Imelda Marcos, in a shitty condition and haven't seen her in a while anywhere. Has a big shoe collection, but can't use them anymore

Musharraf's first prime minister dead: https://www.bolnews.com/pakistan/2020/12/mir-zafarullah-khan-jamali-former-premier-of-pakistan-dies/

Barry Corbin. Looked 15 years older than what he is in Better Call Saul.

Singer, songwriter and musician Pave Maijanen's ALS has progressed pretty quickly to the point he can no longer talk and is in a wheelchair. He's known for his famous songs in the 1980s and downfall in the 1990s, especially for getting the last place in the 1992 eurovision song contest. https://www.seiska.fi/Uutiset/Sairaus-vei-puhekyvyn-Neumann-ystavansa-Pave-Maijasen-kohtalosta-Vaikeinta-on-tajuta-ettei He's also 70. One I recommend to put on some list.

Biden and Richards are pretty healthy people in their seventies. The Queen would probably be a good addition to the list, as she's going to be 95 next april and if she died it would be a pretty big hit to miss

Pretty quiet here after Trebek's death.
