In my opinion, no disrespect to the dead but what a horrible list. The other stars and notable figures sections especially seem to have lots of people who are known most for dying and probably aren't even notable enough to have individual Wiki pages. There's De Niro's grandson, a stuntman, surfer who died in an accident, guy who was most known for his 5 minutes of screentime in Breaking Bad and an Alabama man who was on a podcast. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

livingbygrace 326 Posted December 25, 2023 Maybe it's me but when people put out a video of those that died this past year before the actual end of the year it bugs me.. When you have a year notable people die in the last two days of the year they are not in the video when they would have been only if they died before the video was made. It always makes me feel the video is incomplete to the year's deaths. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why put it out at Christmas time when we have 6 more days of the year? Some would say what's 6 days but think of all the notable people that died in the past few years on those 6 days. Pope Benedict, Carrie Fisher, Debbie Reynolds, and Betty White. Non of these Icons would be in those videos. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
