RIP, Mr. Whitman.

He was excellent in The Comancheros, loved the part where he bent the shovel over John Wayne’s head.

I always liked watching Stuart Whitman. In addition to The Comancheros, he starred in Rio Conchos, which is basically the same story.

I’m thinking the cause of death is probably being 92 years old...

[Sans-Culotte]

I just remembered that he was in the terrifying “Night of the Lepus”!

[gloryblaze]

Yes, he could really ride. He looked so much more comfy at full gallop than I ever did...

Lifelong smoker,I’m guessing some kind of pre-existing lung illness, COPD, chronic bronchitis, etc.

With Lyle Waggoner from “Carol Burnett Show” going, that makes 2 handsome dudes. Who’ll be #3?

Condolences to family and friends of Stuart Whitman. R.I.P. sir.

“Lifelong smoker.”

Yeah, he would have made it to 93 otherwise.

I was teasing. Forgot the smiley face. Also poking fun at some of the panic trolls.

Some men just look like they were born to be cowboys. Stuart Whitman is one. Ben Johnson is another. They wore chaps over their diapers.

[Sans-Culotte]

Is there anything more terrifying than an attack of giant bunnies? The horror!
