David Letterman

[Life Is Beautiful 718]

His mother, a staple of Late Night/Late Show (I always loved her "Guess the Pie" segments), passed away yesterday (R.i.P.) on Dave's birthday.

He's also had quintuple bypass as early as 2000, when he was 53, which is approximately the same age his father had when he passed away.

Definitely a candidate and a very big name that should not be missed.

Considering his mother died in her mid 90s, then it'll likely mean he'll reach a great age as well. Just a thought. 

 

(Disclaimer: It doesn't eliminate the possibility of a terminal cancer diagnosis or something like that, so that can end his life earlier.)
