I always appreciate seeing the person inside the suits. I’m sorry to hear he died of complications from a fall, poor man…my main takeaway is that it sucks to get old. Hope he had a life as happy as it was long.
I suspect most stuntmen don’t get to have 97th birthday parties, so I echo DarkGrandmaofDeath’s hope. RIP
Consider also that his last stunt credit was just ten years ago, when he served as a stunt double for Ernest Borgnine.
From his MST3K credits, you might say he is a People person.
