Billy Mays was found dead in his Tampa home. William "Billy" D. Mays, Jr. was a television direct-response advertisement salesperson most notable for promoting OxiClean, Orange Glo, and other cleaning, home-based, and maintenance products. His distinctive beard and loud sales pitches made him a recognizable television presence.

Personally I am crushed. I really like Billy Mays.

Wait, what?
When did this happen?

Blackstar · « **Reply #2 on:** June 28, 2009, 11:13:08 am »

They found it out today

StarryShay · « **Reply #3 on:** June 28, 2009, 11:15:19 am »

Are you kidding me? This is ridiculous.
How did he die?

It is unknown right now.

Yeah, so I guess the autopsy should be complete by Monday afternoon, then they'll know what happened..

So sad... he was pretty entertaining.

(if it wasn't for his commercials, my mom would've never gotten interested in OxiClean and OrangeGlo; both of those products have been a blessing to our family - esp. OxiClean, since that stuff's even great for getting stains out of cosplay...LOL)

D: Yeah, I was just reading the MSN article about him.

They're dropping like flies. .

Teasel · « **Reply #12 on:** June 28, 2009, 12:38:59 pm »

I had just gotten done watching an episode of Pitchmen where Billy Mays was wearing a suit of armor for an ad when I found out.

I honestly really liked Billy Mays, he had a good sense of humor, and he was just an awesome guy...

SageBell · « **Reply #13 on:** June 28, 2009, 12:57:34 pm »

article states he said it was hit in the head in the bad landing on the airplane.. even though the airline states there were no reported injuries.
Trauma can happen later from an accident. There is teh proof. woke up dead... as in died in sleep.
swelling could have increased from injury over that time frame then..
We will know the results mon afternoon

Teasel · « **Reply #14 on:** June 28, 2009, 01:05:27 pm »

I was just talking with my mom, who is a nurse, and I telling her that he should have gotten his head examined. It wasn't too long ago that an actress hit her head while skiing and died later. Be this a lesson to everyone: if you hit your head hard, get it examined by a medical professional. If Billy Mays had decided to visit the hospital instead of just going home (he probably thought it was nothing), he would still be alive today.

MiriaRose · « **Reply #15 on:** June 28, 2009, 01:08:56 pm »

Actually, there is no proof of a link between his death and the airplane crash. His family finds the fact that people are thinking that ridiculous, actually. He should have gone to a doctor, yes, but that might not be the cause of death.

Coconutty93 · « **Reply #16 on:** June 28, 2009, 02:36:58 pm »

We're not gonna start anything over this! The poor guy died! Don't go fighting over 'how' because it probably doesn't matter. Just mourn his death calmly. The professionals will figure it out and then it will be announced. Until then, try not to make assumptions and try not to bithc about it.
RIP Glo-man! You were awesome! ♥

OK NOW I AM PISSED

The medical examiner's conclusion: "Cocaine use caused or contributed to the development of his heart disease, and thereby contributed to his death."

BILLY MAYS WAS A F-ING COCAINE ADDICT

F-U BILLY MAYS

Teasel · « **Reply #48 on:** August 09, 2009, 12:32:01 am »

Now now, that doesn't mean he was still doing cocaine. No need to get all PMS-y and start insulting him, he was still a great guy.

You know, there was a time where just about everybody did coke: it was called the 70's.

It was in his system at the time of death.

Billy Mays did cocaine up until his death.
