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


I think I need to be educated on this too Smile . Are you saying that he didn't die from the aneurysm???


Q, by no means am I qualified to be anything in a surgery room except the patient, what are we missing?

he seemed like a cool dude -- one who didn't make you feel stupid in contrasts to his intelligence Smile

i enjoyed those shows - actually might learn something interesting as opposed to all the garbage on TV.

RIP Mr. Imahara

You don't die suddenly following a brain aneurysm. What does that even mean, dying "following an aneurysm" or "from an aneurysm"? A brain aneurysm is something something people have for years, and they don't even know they have it until they find out by one of the following ways.

1- They have symptoms, go to doc, have an MRI done and find the cause.
2- They are asymptomatic but found the aneurysm incidentally while doc does a diagnostic workup on something else.
3- The aneurysm ruptures, resulting in bleeding causing massive brain damage, and they die.

If I had to guess, Imahara died because of #3, the rupture of the aneurysm. You don't die just because you have an aneurysm sitting around doing nothing. Most aneurysms are small and do not rupture.

Yup. I have an aneurysm on my aorta. It's just there, going along fine until something happens...like enlarging from stresses, then a rupture. As long as I watch/control my BP and be reasonable with my diet, it'll remain just sitting there, going along fine. At least that's the theory according to my cardiologist.

RIP, young Imahara. Such a shame at that youthful of an age. He and his cohorts Kari and Tory were always entertaining to watch. Fact is, Mythbusters pretty much lost me as a regular viewer when they cut those three from the show.
