There's now a serious doubt that it was indeed a tragic accident

Me to M/R. Remember I was doing some homework in the front room in the house on my own. I had the match on just to keep me company. Could not believe what I was seeing on Telly. It all happened so fast, it was like a dream. The worst thing was when the TV camera closed in on a man completely covered in flames. The strange thing, he was walking so calmly as if nothing was happening.  Then several people jumped on him to put the flames out. Poor chap. I hope he made it, but I doubt it. I can also remember a Policeman with his hair on fire. It was very shocking. It was live telly and did not want to be seen again.

Truly dreadful. Best wishes to the survivors and the families of the victims on this day.

I also remember that bloke on fire.  Horrific and shocking.  I believe he died shortly afterwards.

Does it have to be just famous people?
People you know are more significant.
My uncle on my dad's side passed two days ago.

Personally I think it does, if not we could post every day.

I had 2 friends die at the weekend 

[Master Ray]

Personally, I think if it hits you hard, it belongs on the thread... maybe with a little explanation about the deceased and what they mean to you?

Agreed with ray As normal there isn't any rules Every post is up to the individual

R.I.P BB King
There`s only one live gig in 1980 I was - but that was impressing
And so many other artists wanted to play like him (with that emotion and how to play a guitar)

Remember him well 

and his G/H cast mates.

Oh Ray, don't like hearing about people this age dying. He must only have been a couple of years older than me and thee.

Does make you ask -- how long have I got ??
