Author Topic: Michael Jackson has passed away Bill Gabel Film God Posts: 3873 From: Technicolor / Postworks NY, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 06-25-2009 04:55 PM                     Michael Jackson has passed away in Los Angeles today from a heart attack. He was 50 years old.  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia. Registered: Dec 1999 posted 06-25-2009 05:07 PM                     Now that's a shock.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 06-25-2009 05:55 PM                     I knew he'd get out of playing those concerts in Great Britain somehow!!!  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 06-25-2009 06:13 PM                     Other reports are saying Jackson is in a coma, perhaps a severe coma from several minutes or longer without oxygen due to cardiac arrest.  |  IP: Logged Chris Hipp Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1462 From: Mesquite, Tx (east of Dallas) Registered: Jul 2003 posted 06-25-2009 06:30 PM                     Why do I get the feeling his death is going to have the same affect on internet forums as Steve Irwin's? People are already acting the same "No, we don't know he's dead, it is just a rumor." CNN.com is saying he is dead now and that he was in a coma. Shocking, but not terribly tragic.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 06-25-2009 06:35 PM                     Yes, the L.A. Coroner's office finally gave official confirmation of the news. Sad news, but not very surprising considering all the turmoil surrounding the guy's life over the last decade. One report said Jackson was $500 million in debt.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 06-25-2009 06:38 PM                     At 4pm today on the radio, the announcer mentions of paramedics rushing him to a hospital since he had a cardiac arrest... ..then the wife calls me and said that he died.... "Whoo!" what a week for the "Threes": Ed McMahon on Tuesday at the age of 86, Fawcett Thursday at the age of 62, and now, Jackson also on Thursday at the age of 50. I bet all of the pressures related to that horrible debt finally overwhelmed him... ..signs of the times... -Monte  |  IP: Logged Joshua Waaland Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 800 From: Cleveland, Ohio Registered: Dec 1999 posted 06-25-2009 06:45 PM                     They always die in threes. Recently however they have been dying in bigger groups it seems. Maybe this week will bring four. I hope not.  |  IP: Logged Allison Parsons Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 630 From: East Peoria, IL Registered: Oct 2004 posted 06-25-2009 07:00 PM                        CNN is reporting he is back from the dead, ready to reinact Thriller. Ok, bad joke. There goes my favorite childhood singer. I'll have to break out the E.T. and MJ box set I have on LP tonight.

They say tragedies happen in threes. I hate to think of who could be next. Well, now we know.  |  IP: Logged Chad Souder Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 962 From: Waterloo, IA, USA Registered: Feb 2000 posted 06-25-2009 07:32 PM                     Pepsi is shooting off fireworks in his honor tonight  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.
