Dr. Zorders 1,272 Posted January 3, 2015 Whatever that means. Whichever one you thought was most shocking or "meaningful"....... or just the person who died that you liked best, whatever. I decided to include the victims of the flight shot down over Ukraine but since it didn't start WW3 I won't be voting for it. However there were a lot of scientists on it. Oh and I tried to put them in a mostly chronological order but I couldn't be bothered to be too exact and if your favourite is not there I'm sorry, vote "other" and tell us.

Guest droosy Posted January 3, 2015 Rik, the biggest bottom burp, Mayall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Zorders 1,272 Posted January 3, 2015 I just added some new ones on the end so a couple of you who voted for the ones at the bottom might have to re-check your votes as it kinda screwed them up a bit. I'm going with Robin Williams btw, truly shocked the hell out of me, and biggest actor death since Neil Armstrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathray 2,942 Posted January 3, 2015 Tony Benn as one of the last major political heavyweights of the 1970s, especially on the hard left and Rik Mayall from a comedy point of view. I reckon this year will get the Queen, Prince Phil or Bush. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 8,043 Posted January 3, 2015 Williams, though I admit the earth-shattering death of Alexander Imich comes close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RandomCanadian 105 Posted January 4, 2015 I picked Joan Rivers though it could have easily been Robin Williams. I was loyal Fashion Police viewer and miss her cutting and brutally honest humour deilvered on a weekly basis. I'm not too thrilled about her replacement either. Robin's death, if I dare say, hit the world like a ton of bricks. I actually cried when I heard about his passing it just seemed unreal. My honourable mentions go to Jan Hooks and Jean Beliveau. Jan's passing was a shock, 57 is way too young. Not a big death to the world, but the passing of Jean Belliveau was a loss for Canada and the image of Guy Lafleur at Jean's coffin was moving.

Book 3,594 Posted January 4, 2015 Maybe not THE biggest death of the year, but somehow emotional to me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,073 Posted January 4, 2015 Robin Williams, but I had forgotten that Sharon died. I think he comes close. Apparently, he was an excellent general, but his government was unremarkable and, of course, cut short by his stroke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lard Bazaar 3,803 Posted January 4, 2015 The biggest shock one for me was Peaches. The one I was most gutted about was Rik. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
