DEVELOPING: Television pitchman Billy Mays — who built his fame by appearing on commercials and infomercials promoting household products and gadgets — died Sunday, FOX News confirms.
Mays was found unresponsive by his wife inside his Tampa, Fla., home at 7:45 a.m. on Sunday, according to the Tampa Police Department.

He was a passenger on the US 737 that had nose gear problems on landing in TPA yesterday. According to the CNN story, he reported that he had been hit on the head by objects during that landing. Makes you wonder if he had some head injury that didn't manifest itself until later:

Sorry to hear.
A friend of mine quipped, "wasn't he jsut on a commercial about health insurance? And now this?"
I thought it was cute.
Billy Mays did not have head trauma! It was due to heart disease, RIP.
