If you get a chance to see his work in HBO’s series “Oz”, it is unforgettable. So sorry to see him in such suffering.

I would never have known his names, but some of those commercials are pretty funny.

My favorite of his Allstate commercials...

Raccoon Mayhem

I love your work, Mr. Winters. When one of your commercials comes on, I actually watch and remember it.

Allstate, I hope you pay him well. He's worth it.

I imagine he’s suffering from some kind of peripheral artery disease. He simply isn’t getting proper blood flow to his body extremities

He’s not overweight. I wonder if he is diabetic or was a heavy smoker?

How did he get this infection? The article does not give any details.

From the article: "I went septic due to an illness that I had as a kid and it caught up with me."

No, he went septic because he ignored an infection.

I can't find any report of what that childhood illness was.

My favorite ‘Mayhem’ commercial was when he pretended to be a satellite dish atop a high roof. When he fell off and smashed into a carport below, they ran some fine print saying “Do not attempt this at home.” All these years later it still makes me laugh.

I recently completed thrice weekly neuropathy treatments, the therapy occurred over six months. My balance has improved significantly, as well as the reduction of pain and numbness in my legs and feet. I recommend it to anyone suffering from neuropathy.

One of his first as Mayhem: teen-age girl driver, jealous of another girl who was “like…not even hot”.

Sorry to hear that, but I always hated those negative ads. Whatever they were selling, I didn’t want it.

I think he was also on law and order SUV at one time.

He was also in the first John Wick movie
