The 6th Annual Celebrity Death Thread 2021 - The Old Gods Stir...

[Xeno]

RIP

His genuine passion for motor sport really got me in to it early in life. Him and James Hunt made F1 a sport that could both be entertaining and interesting, many times I would watch and be rolling with laughter at the commentary from both.

Yaphet Kotto has died at 81.

Probably best known around these parts for playing Parker in Alien and Laughlin in The Running Man, as well as one of the main characters in Homicide: Life on the Street.

[Corazon de Leon]

Ah that one stings a little bit.

[LewisD]

Ah man, he was was a badass

[Denster]

Great in one of my favourite films. Shame that but 81 is a good run. RIP mate.

I had no idea he was Dr. Kananga in Live and Let Die.

Marvin Hagler has passed away.

A top tier boxer in anyone's book.

One of the true greats. Rewatched his fight with Hagler the other day, what an 8 minutes that was.

[Dual]

Sabine

Such a cool lady.

Presume you mean Hearns and yeah, probably the greatest first round ever!

Oh aye definitely meant Hearns. Not sure Hagler shadow boxing in the mirror for 8 minutes would have been quite as good.

That Sabine news has really shocked me. Was only watching one of her Nurburgring video's a few days ago. I had no idea she was ill.

[LewisD]

No clue that Sabine was ill. She was brilliant

[SEP]

That's a proper gut punch. I hope Top Gear can put together some sort of special to commemorate her.

[Denster]

Hagler was obe if the first boxers i followed as a kid. I watched that Hearns fight with my dad. Amazing.
Legend. RIP mate.

[GrinWithoutaKat]

I've been re-watching the post Clarkson, Hammond and May TG, and just last night watched the episode where Sabine and Rory race cheap SUVs up an 'almost' mountain. Without doubt she was one of the highlights of the revamped show.

[kazanova_Frankenstein]

I too remember watching Hagler vs Hearns with my dad and brother.

I never saw the Hagler vs Hagler fight mind. I'm betting on a draw.

This one needs including.

[more heat than light]

Garage rock musician Dan Sartain has died aged 39.



Probs most well known for this track which was used in one of the Telltale Walking Dead games, but he has an extensive back catalogue which is well worth investigating. Sad news.

[Preezy]

39 is no age, such a waste. RIP
