    From Wikipedia: Combs died on August 27, 2019, after crashing a jet-powered car while setting a land-speed record as part of the North American Eagle Project on a dry lake bed in the Alvord Desert, Oregon.[2][3][7][8] The crash was caused by a failure of a front wheel, likely caused by hitting an object in the desert, which caused the front wheel assembly to collapse at a speed nearing 523 mph (842 km/h).[25]

    Imahara died on July 13, 2020, at the age of 49, after suffering a ruptured, previously undiagnosed, intracranial aneurysm.[37][3]

      Man, aneurysms are terrifying.

      They’re often undiagnosed because they can develop over time and regular MRIs and CTs without a reason aren’t really a thing because they’re expensive.

      One day you could just bump your head, go for a jog, or even sneeze and then boom, dead.
