    Dying Off The Radar

    Jeremiah Farrell died on July 4, 2022. A mathematics professor, he created what is often regarded as the "greatest crossword in history", which ran in the New York Times on the day of the 1996 US general election and was able to be solved in two ways: However, no obit for him in the NYT, or seemingly anywhere else outside of this website.

    The Dead of 2024

    Posting here because he could go in about four different categories: Dick Allix dead at 78. Started off as a musician, playing drums for Vanity Fare including on their cross-Atlantic hit "Hitching A Ride". Then went into sports management, firstly with Eric Bristow. Then was involved in the great darts schism of the early 90s, eventually ending up as one of the PDC top brass and being an agent for most of the current commentators on the arrers.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2025

    A first mention on the forum for possibly a popular name in future deadpools, Haitian copper-turned-gang-leader-turned-military-coup-leader Jimmy "Barbecue" Chérizier.

    Last Of The Iron Lungs

    As roughly 10,000 people have joked on XformerlyknownasTwitter, "looks like Cheltenham finally finished off Alan Brazil"

    Deathlist Cup 2024

    Charlie Bird is a hit here. Eric Dornfeld (typo'd by me in my entry as Dornfield) will be if he gets a QO, having died last night.

    Dead Pop Stars

    Always reminded of the teenager who died of alcohol poisoning following a "Hungry Eyes"-based drinking game (he did a shot of ouzo every time the word "hungry" is said).

    Dead Pop Stars

    Wonder how many other bands would manage that. Aztec Camera have 21 full-time (ie, not touring) band members with blue links on Wikipedia, but four of those are dead. EDIT: Blood, Sweat and Tears have 44 still-living blue-linked full-time members, including American Idol runner-up Bo Bice and the guy who wrote the lyrics for the English-language version of the Pokemon theme.

    Of note he was also one-third of Hatebeak, the death metal band with a parrot on vocals:

    Death, Italian Style

    Character actor Gigio Morra, possibly best known outside of Italy as the guy running the clothing sweatshops in the original Gomorrah movie, dead at 78.

    Rumours

    Someone claiming to be a journalist with O Globo claiming on Twitter that Dani Alves has killed himself in prison. Not exactly convinced by this one.

    11. Mel Brooks

    Unless Mel decided to become a recluse at some point in the past 10 months, long after COVID was a day-to-day threat, then this is just another internet "free-thinker" believing whatever he's told by someone else.

    Journalists

    Rod Liddle (he's the fella that ran off and left his wife for a young one) never been the healthiest of men, mentally or physically, but he looks about one lunch-on-expenses away from a multiple heart attack here.
