Banshees Scream 110 Posted October 15, 2005 I've always hated the fact how the media could never accept when a famous star dies. The sad part is none of them ever live on. - Elvis Presley died in his home on August 16 1977. - Andy Kaufman died from a rare form of lung cancer on May 16 1984. - Jim Morrison croaked in a bathtub in france on July 3 1971. "Though the exsact cause of death remains a mystery" - John Lennon was shot dead outside the dakoda on December 8 1980 by a crazed fan. If there's anyone else i've missed out on i apologize but i would think these are the main celebritys that people have said to have seen after there death date. Espeacialy Elvis.. I believe Andy Kaufman's situation was a bit different. I remember reading that many of his faimly friends and fans thought Andy faked his death at his funeral and that he would pop out of his casket as a joke which he never did.

maryportfuncity 10,662 Posted October 15, 2005 Andy Kaufman: Comedian with decidedly oddball act. Best known for his role in eighties comedy 'Taxi' portrayed by Jim Carey in 'Man On The Moon' and - therefore - the subject of the song of the same name by REM. If any celebs faked their own deaths it's none of the above. I reckon you'd get much shorter odds on Tupac - who might rightfully have considered his life to be in danger - and/or Richie Edwards of the Manic Street Preachers who was the musical lightweight of a band and an increasing irrelevance on their records. Also prone to self centered gestures to prove his committment to his art. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,235 Posted October 15, 2005 ...many of his faimly friends and fans thought Andy fakedhis death at his funeral and that he would pop out of his casket as a joke which he never did. Perhaps that was the original idea. My guess is that they put the lid on too tight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weatherman90 7 Posted October 17, 2005 Actually OT Fritz I cant say as how I even care. Hey Brimley! Good to see ya! Hey speaking of Brimley...I suggested this along time ago but I'm pretty sure the thread is long gone by now, but I suggested that we add Wilford Brimley as a possibilty. Wilford is 81 now, and diabetic. On top of that, he is pretty huge. He has been in quite a few westerns, and these days most people just see him on the Liberty Medical Supplies commercials, that run frequently on TV. (The commercials were parodied by SNL a few years back.) (Finally some relevance in this thread!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
