  • It’s shocking to think that there are actually celebrities who died in front of their fans. Like, they’re on stage, walking around, and the next minute, they’re just… gone. It might have been a heart attack, a shooting, or a fall. In some cases, audiences didn’t even realize the person had really died.

    In others, onlookers could only watch in horror as the scene unfolded in front of their eyes. And when it comes to celebrities who died in front of their fans, there are bizarre deaths, tragic deaths, weirdly comedic deaths, strangely appropriate deaths, murders, expected and unexpected deaths, accidental deaths, and everything in between.
    Take the death of Steve Irwin, for instance. The Australian wildlife expert, famous worldwide for his “crikey” catchphrase and never-fear attitude, was filming footage for a new television series at the Great Barrier Reef. He’d cornered a usually docile stingray when it reared up and started stabbing him with its barbed tail. The barb pierced Irwin’s heart, and he died not long afterward. Another bizarre tale is the death of 60-year-old actress Edith Webster. She was performing her grandmother role in a play called The Drunkard, the exact role she’d played for almost ten years. When she hit the death scene, she sang her final song and slumped over. It took the audience more than a minute to realize she had died for real.
    There are also tragic tales of celebrities who died in front of their fans. Take the death of Brandon Lee, son of famous and also ill-fated Hong Kong actor Bruce Lee. He was filming the death scene on the set of the cult classic film The Crow when he was actually shot in the stomach. Though he was rushed to hospital, he later died. Some, like Pantera and Damageplan guitarist Dimebag Darrell, were murdered by jealous fans. Others fell to their deaths, like pro-wrestler Owen Hart, better known as Blue Blazer.
    Then there were those who died on stage doing what they loved, like British comedy legend Eric Morecambe or Scottish guitarist Les Harvey. If you’re interested to learn the tales, both macabre and fascinating, of celebrities who died in front of their fans, be sure to watch to the end of the video.

    Learned about Dimebag's death listening to Howard Stern. That shocked me to the core!! I met Dime in 1995 after a Pantera show in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. He was the absolute nicest musician I'd ever met!! As far as the reason that guy shot him is because he thought Dimebag was the reason Pantera broke up (it was the singer Phil Anselmo' s fault, more or less). Plus he was severely mentally unstable. How he got in the club with a gun is beyond me. No one checking people at the door?? And ironically Dime was shot and killed on the anniversary of John Lennon being shot and killed....I still tear up when I hear Pantera, especially the song "Cemetary Gates"....RIP Dime! You will forever be missed!!!

    Another British comedian/ actor who died on stage was Sid James who died on stage in Sunderland, England in 1976. I think he had a heart attack just like Eric Morecambe. Sid James was born in South Africa but acted mainly in British sit coms and movies. The "Carry" On comedy movies in the '60's were his most famous roles but not sure if they made it to US cinema's so you are perhaps not aware of them. There was also another famous British comedian called Tommy Cooper who died in 1984 in similar circumstances but on television.
