Title: 'Informercial King' Found Dead in Tampa Home

You may have seen him in various informercials. This salesman, Billy Mays, was found dead at his Florida home.

This is a tragedy.

I just found out the news about ten minutes ago. Pretty depressing. With Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, and Billy Mays all dead in the same week, I wonder who will die next. :/

i'm sure vince is the happiest man alive right now, he knew billy mays was gonna beat the shit out of him for repackaging all of his products on tv. i mean literally, he called him out on live radio and wanted to have a showdown with him. again, 50 years old is too young to go. he didn't look unhealthy, i wonder what caused it

They say that it was most likely a head injury (internal bleeding) that he received in an accident yesterday.

"U.S. Airways confirmed Sunday that Mays was among the passengers on a flight that made a rough landing on Saturday afternoon at Tampa International Airport, leaving debris on the runway after apparently blowing its front tires.

Tampa Bay's Fox television affiliate interviewed Mays after the incident.

"All of a sudden as we hit you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping," MyFox Tampa Bay quoted him as saying. "It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head."

McElroy said linking Mays' death to the rough landing Saturday afternoon would "purely be speculation." She said Mays' family members didn't report any health issues with the pitchman, but they said he was due to have hip replacement surgery in the coming weeks."
