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

"Imahara died suddenly following a brain aneurysm, The Hollywood Reporter has learned."

These "reporters" need to educate themselves a little better.

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

As a mechanical engineer I always enjoyed watching him do his stuff

Makes me feel very old today

RIP Grant

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.
