Celebrities You Didn't Know Had Died

JERRY NELSON

HOW - Emphysema



Jerry Nelson, puppeteer best known for voicing the Count, Floyd Pepper, Gobo Fraggle, and Camilla the Chicken, and the first performer of Mr. Snuffleupagus.

For over 40 years, Jerry Nelson voiced the world's most beloved vampire besides Blacula. Counting is to the Count Von Count as orgasms are to women -- he can't get enough. And as little children, we all loved watching him annoy the shit out of the other Sesame Street denizens when he followed every number with a "Ha. Ha. Ha." Who among us hasn't done the same while eating individual spaghetti noodles or counting ambulances on their way to a tragic emergency?

A lesser publication would use this opportunity to make a hilarious number joke, but God help us, we wouldn't know how to count past six if it wasn't for Nelson. So we're hoping that he's enjoying that big math castle in the sky right now.

LANCE LEGAULT

HOW - Not Specific



If you watched TV in the '80s, and one of the TV shows you watched had like a bad guy who was in the military -- congratulations! You know who Lance LeGault is.

LeGault played bad guy Colonel Decker in The A-Team. He played bad guy Colonel "Buck" Greene in Magnum, P.I. He played three DIFFERENT bad guys in Airwolf. He was even bad guy Colonel Glass in Stripes. He worked with John Candy, Tom Selleck, and Mr. T. Does it get any better? It does -- LeGault actually started out as Elvis' stunt double and is famously known for having a voice "four octaves lower than God's."



He also appeared in the original Battlestar Galactica, The Incredible Hulk, Wonder Woman, Buck Rogers, T.J. Hooker, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and, of course, MacGyver.
