Ayer (1989) (pfft whoever) ....until the 2000s when I got a nice little run going... Jack Lemmon (2001) John Entwistle (2002) Gen George Patton IV (2004) Then it dries up. Bobby Womack was kind enough to try to get things going again last year (2014).

msc 18,546 Posted June 28, 2016 According to a cursory look on Wiki, my birthday was the death day of Robert McNamara, Tom Weir, Louis Armstrong and Nye Bevan. And lots of obscure people. If you go back way over a century, you find Guy de Maupassant (who wrote about deadpools) and Thomas More (who was on Henry VIII's personal deadpool). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,267 Posted March 29, 2018 Only extremely notable birthday for me is Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. I guess someone could say Alf Ramsey since he was a deathlist hit but I have no idea who he is. Otherwise, the names I recognized when I read through the list of deaths on my birthday were all due to dead pooling... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 11,079 Posted March 30, 2018 The Birthday Problem: When does the probability that two people in the same group share the same birthday exceed 50%? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_problem Answer: It's 23. Now I wonder how many people have posted in here and whether there are shared birthdays... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,079 Posted March 30, 2018 Out of soon-to-be 42 people, we have two matches. The first match came at nr. 29. We have 9 September birthdays and only one in December. Both matches were in September. Second most-frequent month is August with 6 birthdays. So I'm pretty sure that the zodiac sign Virgo is the most frequent one. And as astrology says, Virgos like to categorize, to get things into order. Oh, and famous deaths on my birthday: RIch Piana (that's why I could easily remember that August 25th was such a deathless day...), Neil Armstrong, Ted Kennedy, the woman R Kelly peed on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Up North 3,771 Posted March 30, 2018 Deaths on my birthday - Jack Dempsey and Danny la Rue (to cover the spectrum). Births on my birthday - Clint Eastwood would be the most famous. In the specific year that I was born it was a glorious 5 day spell from 28th May to 1st June in 1968. 28th May 1968 Kylie Minogue 31st May 1968 Me 1st June 1968 Jason Donovan We're having a big get together to celebrate our 50th. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
