That happened to a famous British comedian...Tommy Cooper.He was performing at a televised event when he just sat down and then went flat.For a little while people thought it was part of his act.

That one is actually on YT for anyone who is interested (viewer discretion obviously advised). It does seem like a fairly peaceful way to go.

I worked in a big city ER for years and I can assure you that you’re correct. I still have nightmares of some of the stuff I saw...things that didn’t even remotely resemble what he experienced.

I watched that video on YouTube about a year ago. I wasn’t familiar with Tommy Cooper but, somehow, the video appeared on my YouTube recommendations. It was sad but at least he went peacefully, although I was a little surprised at how long it took someone to figure out that something was wrong.

I would rather view the Tommy Cooper death video than the Budd Dwyer death video. I still hate myself for watching that one.
