No, John Curry was 44. Simon Cadell was 45, and I think Tim Gullikson was early 40s. Pretty sure there's an obvious one staring me in the face from the last decade too.

Helen Rollason was 43.

Everytime I open the 2017 names thread and see a dead tag with an update from 3 minutes ago I get nervous.

Right, Joey was alluding about this a few days ago, asking if Joost van der Westhuizen was the youngest Deathlist hit. Which got me wondering.

 

Deathlist hits (Segovia to van der Westhuizen) mapped out by age at death.

(snipped for length)

  1. 47 – Ray Moore, John Diamond
  2. 45 – Simon Cadell, Joost van der Westhuizen
  3. 44 – John Curry, Tim Gullikson
  4. 43 – Helen Rollason

I wonder if anyone younger will ever be a hit on DL.

If John Newmans cancer gets worse then he could be a hit.

possibly. We haven't gotten any updates in 8-9 months so that could be a bad sign.

And he will be a member of the cursed 27 club if he dies before August that year.

Funny thing, he turns 27 tomorrow coincidentally. I'm sure your thinking of August because that was when his illness was announced. 

About his deathlistiness, I don't think he's the type the committee would go for at all.

Would depend on whether or not he gives a bleak update.If he announced in December he had months to live then the committee would pick him.They would have to be sure he was on the way out before they considered him worthy enough.He is mainstream enough to be deathlisty.

I doubt they would really want to pick shitty pop stars though...

As long as they think he'll obit and know of his illness, they'll pick him. I doubt any of them knew who Fergie Frederiksen or Errol Christie was.

The criteria is they cant be famous for being likely to die soon.Newman is famous enough for DL .
