Maybe he can turn himself around, but I remain skeptical. He's not making 50 if he doesn't stay sober. He looks awful. https://www.tmz.com/2023/06/08/bam-margera-detox-lamar-odom-rehab/

Pat Robertson, a hit for me and some others.

The date is December 13, 2023. Dick Van Dyke trips over some furniture and breaks his neck, dying at his 98th birthday celebration. He becomes the 49th Deathlist hit of the year, yet Jimmy Carter remains favored over "that's all!" on the "50th death of 2023" poll.

I'm going to say not Jimmy Carter.

Tina Turner, a hit for the Deathlist and a huge one here as well.

I'm going with Le Pen, but I have a funny feeling whoever it is, it won't be Jimmy Carter next, yet again.

Fortunately for Trump, this guy had the name first. https://www.scmp.com/author/orange-wang

As for Bam, It would not surprise me at all if he goes this year. A risky pick pulling a young-ish washed up troubled celebrity, but I'll take it. On the other hand Steve-O really is a great guy, he's had a remarkable turnaround in sobriety.

Constantine II for many of us as well.

prescient words indeed.

@gcreptile I checked the masterlist and you have Tim Curry as an entry for me, in place of Bam Margera. Thanks for putting this together, tons of work for you I know.

My Correctlist predictions with DL 2023 positions: 2. Henry Kissinger 3. Bob Barker 5. Nigel Starmer-Smith 6. Jimmy Carter 7. Tony Bennett 11. Jacques Delors 17. Joanne Woodward 21. Joss Ackland 22. Jean-Marie Le Pen 23. Milan Kundera 34. General Pervez Musharraf 38. Rolf Harris 39. Ryuichi Sakamoto (joker) 44. Sonny Rollins 49. Andy Taylor

Where is that exactly? I see a "topics" section on the right side but none of those names.

Fixed it for you, so it's correct for the Masterlist. Lesson learned, wait until the last minute to submit teams!

@gcreptile Was it ok for me to substitute Frank Borman for Benedict? If they have to go in order I guess I'll be stuck with Andrew Tate (Risky, but also by far the youngest on my list)

@John Key I will keep it straightforward and you can place my first sub Tom Lehrer in place of Pope Benny. Lesson learned though, next year I should wait later to submit the list!

Similar but not the same as my shadowlist for 2023, here goes: Alan Greenspan Alberto Fujimori Andy Taylor (Duran Duran) Bam Margera Barbara Walters Tom Lehrer Bob Barker Burt Bacharach Chaim Topol David Graham Eva Marie Saint George Alagiah Gianluca Vialli Giorgio Napolitano Glynis Johns Harry Belafonte Henry Kissinger Imelda Marcos Isabel Perón Jack Nicholson James Earl Jones James Watson James Whale (Joker) Jimmy Carter Jimmy Swaggart June Spencer King Constantine II of Greece Liza Minelli Louis Farrakhan Michael Caine Norman Lear Pat Robertson Paul Hogan Pervez Musharraf Pope Benedict XVI Andrew Tate Prince Edward, Duke of Kent Raúl Castro Ric Flair Rolf Harris Rosalynn Carter Sandra Day O' Connor Seiji Ozawa Shane McGowen Shannen Doherty Sonny Rollins Ted Kaczynski Ted Turner Tina Turner Toby Keith Vladimir Putin Willie Nelson Subs: Tom Lehrer MOVED TO MAIN Andrew Tate MOVED TO MAIN Frank Borman Jane Fonda Ozzy Ozbourne

@John Key, I have edited Pele out for Ted Kaczynski. But I wanted to know if it was ok to change my list before the 31st using someone other than my 5 subs? If it isn't, I will replace Kaczynski with one of my 5 original subs.

First ever dead pool play, since this one seems so straightforward, here goes: 1. Rolf Harris 2. Jimmy Carter 3. Henry Kissinger 4. Ted Kaczynski 5. June Spencer 6. Benjamin Ferencz 7. Bob Barker 8. Liza Minelli 9. Glynis Johns 10. Tom Lehrer 11. Violeta Chamorro 12. James Watson 13. Sonny Rollins 14. Alberto Fujimori 15. Tina Turner 16. Harry Belafonte 17. Rosalynn Carter 18. Sandra Day O' Connor 19. Paul Hogan 20. Joanne Woodward 21. Ethel Kennedy 22. James Earl Jones 23. Robert Duvall 24. David Graham 25. Giorgio Napolitano 26. Barre Seid 27. Isabel Perón 28. Jimmy Swaggart 29. Raúl Castro 30. Jack Nicholson 31. Michael Caine 32. Pat Leahy 33. Buzz Aldrin 34. Emperor Akihito 35. Eva Marie Saint 36. Alan Greenspan 37. Ted Turner 38. Louis Farrakhan 39. Toby Keith 40. Prince Edward, Duke of Kent 41. Seiji Ozawa 42. Norman Lear 43. Hans Blix 44. Pervez Musharraf 45. Ric Flair 46. Burt Bacharach 47. Imelda Marcos 48. Chaim Topol 49. Bam Margera 50. Vladimir Putin subs: 1. Tom Lehrer Moved to fill in for Pope Benedict XVI 2. King Constantine II of Greece 3. Jane Fonda 4. Shane McGowen 5. Frank Borman

Not looking healthy at all Decide for yourself if there is anything to this. It's not true until the Kremlin denies it after all.

I will certainly put him on my personal 50 list for next year. Way too good a chance he dies of something not natural, and the health rumors aren't stopping.
