2025 SDMB Celebrity Death Pool

There are points on my list that I will absolutely dance with joy when I cash them in.

These are not those points. :cry:
RIP, Ryno.

Oh, c’mon, I picked David Irving for my list. And then this guy dies instead.

That’s okay. Every time a bell rings, God kills a Holocaust denier

Only three celebrities had more picks than Ryne Sandberg. It was complicated finding all 20 because one player misspelled his name.

Dr. Pavel from The Dark Knight Rises dead at 60.

Aboutboul was a real icon here in Israel, and a major sex symbol when he was younger. Besides acting in Israeli productions, he’d built a decent career in American movies and TV as a “hey it’s that guy!” character actor, mainly playing Russians and Arabs. His death was very sudden and surprising - he was apparently swimming at a beach without a lifeguard, got caught in a rip tide, managed to fight his way back to land, and dropped dead of a heart attack.

In the U.S. he was in 25 episodes of the show Snowfall set in the early days of the crack epidemic.

Michael Ochs, brother of singer/songwriter Phil Ochs and a rock ‘n’ roll photographic archivist of over 3 million vintage prints, proof sheets and negatives.

Got some Ryne Sandburg points, too.

RIP, Ryne. You were an outstanding baseball player.

Olympic biathlon medalist Laura Dahlmeier has died in a rockslide in Pakistan.
69 points that I doubt anyone got.

Paul Mario Day, original lead singer of Iron Maiden, 69.

He’s runnin’ free, yeah.

That was actually Paul Di’Anno, who stopped Prowling last year.

We must protect Bruce Dickinson at all costs.

It’s not like he routinely pilots airplanes or anything. THOSE THINGS CRASH!

Oh, wow. That movie was something else. Farrah Fawcett was amazing in it. RIP, Rose. Your film affected many lives. Women learned they don’t have to just keep taking it, forever and ever. You changed laws.

I just checked my list, and I’m pretty sure I have 94 points, and not 114, as it says on the list. My deaths have given me 35, 24 and 35 points, which is 94.

Stop bragging

Bragging? I just kicked myself out of the top 10!
