Wow!
Per the article, he's 49, not 40, not that it matters much. I've known several folks that passed young. When it's your time, it's your time.

Very sad.
On mythbusters, he had a chemistry with his co-hosts that resembled a close friendship. Seemed like a very smart and easygoing guy.

Saw him only on Myth Busters but I always got the impression that he was a really good guy in real life.

Is Mythbusters cursed? Two hosts die suddenly and young.
