Harvey Korman (1927-2008)
CELEBRITY DEATH TOLL UPDATE
HARVEY KORMAN
FAMOUS FOR: He won some Emmys from his preformances on The Carol Burnett Show, and was featured in three of Mel Brooks' best films (History of the World Part I, High Anxiety, and, one of my favorite movies ever made, Blazing Saddles). Oh, and he did the voice of Mr. Mxyzptlk the Great Gazoo on The Flintstones, which I didn't even realize until now. Damn.
CAUSE OF DEATH: Complications from the rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Which the doctors most likely couldn't have helped even if they hadn't been, ahem, dum dums.
AGE: 81
