I've never heard of anyone surviving suicide :mellow:

 

 

Well...

 

Some people have successfully faked evidence of their own death, incl. faked suicides. There are still - for example - a few die-hards who imagine Ritchie Edwards of the Manics is out there somewhere. 

 

Sky reported on a man who's life's work is finding living people who faked death - https://news.sky.com/story/you-only-live-twice-the-man-who-catches-people-who-fake-their-own-death-11637341

Morgan Burke, the longest serving athletic director in Purdue history, died at his home Monday after battling a rare disease for the past year. He was 68.

University officials said in a statement Burke had been diagnosed with amyloidosis, an ailment caused by the build-up of an abnormal protein which prevents the body's organs from functioning properly.

Half way through the year and we've reached 10. Would have to think there's a relatively good chance we may go close to 18.

And Berlin mourns "Lord Knud".

 

No, not Knut, the polar bear cub, that was long time ago. https://www1.wdr.de/stichtag/stichtag-eisbaer-knut-100.html

 

No, also not Lord Kroak. That was aeons far away. https://www.games-workshop.com/de-DE/Seraphon-Lord-Kroak

 

Lord Knud was a local radio personality. https://www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de/dj-und-radiolegende-schlager-moderator-lord-knud-ist-tot.1895.de.html?dram:article_id=478857

Red in the news: "Jean Smith has died"

 

Who is Jean Smith?

 

Checking Google.

 

Oh, it's Jean KENNEDY Smith.

 

Well, that's a story. Last ambassador of the  Kennedy-Clan...

We have a thread for the Kennedys. Her death has been reported, and commented on in there several times already.

She wasn't the last Kennedy ambassador.  Caroline was one as well.

As widely discussed in the Ian Holm thread

!:D

Yeah, though I reported it here before it was reported in his thread and this very thread is universal. So shut the fuck up.

Joel J. Kupperman, who became a child star in the 1940s on US radio as the resident "Quiz Kid" genius on a game show, has died aged 83. If I remember right he was admitted to hospice some time last year during the Deathlist Cup, but I lost the tweet where his son said that so I didn't use him as a player.

It's being reported that Kupperman died of complications of Covid-19.

Yeah, it was a bit risky, but still, the uniqueness is a bit of a gift. About as shocking as the unique Michael Falzon for msc.

 

Australian actor/producer Michael Falzon dead from cancer aged 48.
