I have no idea if she intentionally did face plants in food without it being at a county fair pie-eating contest or such.
Wait. Didn’t Beck’s mother do just that? The suicide thing.
***************************************
This website is not sympathetic to Beck, but the circumstances of his mother’s death match what is reported in other places. I’ll leave the determination of “fabrication” on his part up to you. His credibility is not good with me for a whole host of reasons, one of them being a video I saw purporting to show Beck getting Vicks Vapor Rub smeared under his eyes to cause his eyes to tear up for one of his “weepy” segments.
From website link:
Mary Beck drowned on May 15, 1979 in the cold waters of Puget Sound, Washington. Beck (who was 15 at the time even though he continues to lie and say that he was 13) has said on countless occasions that she committed suicide. The Tacoma Police Department and U.S. Coast Guard investigations concluded that the drowning was accidental. This discrepancy has been widely reported in the past but since both of the witnesses to the drowning are dead, the veracity of Beck’s weepy claim of maternal suicide and abandonment have been largely unchallenged. But piecing together Beck’s own contradictory statements regarding his mother’s death, reveal solid evidence that he simply fabricated the story.
