Bad link.

That's a bummer, he always seemed like a pretty decent guy. 49 is way too young.

That’s terrible. Brain aneurysm he was only 49. I loved that show and it helped get me through many surgical recoveries when I was laid up and only kept company by the tv


May he Rest In Peace

I remember watching him on battlebots when he won it with robot. Then the scavenged it on mythbusters a few years later.
He was a genuinely good guy and the people around him loved him.

Good guy, both my kids followed him for the robotics. He really was talented and by all accounts a good person.

He seemed to have such a zest for life. Such a terrible loss at so young of age. Frown

R.I.P. Way too young. He created the Geoff Peterson robot on Craig Ferguson's late night talk show.

A friend knew him and told me on several occasions that Imahara really was a nice guy.

Sad news.

I used to always watch Myth Busters and he always seemed like a great guy (as they all did). Sad to hear of his passing.
