Billy Mays DEAD! US Airways OxiCleans Unbuckled Pitchman Liability Amidst Grim Reaper Death Week Lotto Scratch-Off!
OxiClean Pitchman Latest Casualty in Grim Reaper Death Week No-Hitter! Billy Mays!
"All of a sudden as we hit...you know...it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head."
Jun 28th 2009 11:50AM - Nichopoulooza
In what will surely go down in history as the most gruesome celebrity-harvest of the 21st century, Nichopoulooza has confirmed that TV pitchman Billy Mays is dead. Found at his home in Tampa, Florida early this morning, after barely surviving a mid-air head wound, which may or may not have been a direct cause of his death. He was 50. [The new dead.]
According to the Tampa PD, the 50-year-old TV pitchman known for his hilarious and ungraceful OxiClean outtakes finally stumbled into a spot he couldn't get out. The unresponsive husband was found dead by his wife Deborah, who thought everything was normal at 7:45 AM, until she realized that he was more unresponsive than usual.
Mays' body has been removed from his home, and in an unusual twist, the OxiClean which Billy pitched may prove to be a major foul for local CSI and forensic examiners, as the sterile environment and orangery scent prohibits usual forensic discovery.
Mays was one of the passengers aboard a plane that landed roughly at Tampa Airport yesterday. He told a local FOX affiliate he was hit on the head by falling items.The FAA is already deflecting blame for the death of Billy Mays -- claiming the legendary TV pitchman wasn't wearing a seat belt when he took a shot to the head during a rough landing. Laura Brown, the FAA spokesperson gave this quote about Billy Mays:
"The passenger needs to wear a seat belt during landing and he didn't"
NOW SHE SAYS SHE DIDN'T SAY IT.
"At this point in time, we cannot have any idea who was or wasn't wearing their seat belt on the plane."
Here's what we know -- Billy Mays was aboard US Airways Flight 1241 flying from Philadelphia, which landed roughly when the front tire blew out as it touched down. After the flight, Billy told FOX 13 in Tampa that something struck him in the head -- here's Billy's actual quote:
"All of a sudden as we hit you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head."
FAA says: "The passenger needs to wear a seat belt during landing and he didn't."
A spokesperson for US Airways did not want to comment until more information comes to light.
Billy TWEETED last night on his robotic Twitter [which completely omits any of the other deaths of the last week] saying, "Just had a close call landing in Tampa. The tires blew out upon landing. Stuck in the plane on the runway. You can always count on US Air."

He told a local TV station, had just returned from Philadelphia, where he shot a new OxiClean commercial. Mays was at his home around 6:00 PM last night, and according to a source Mays was "acting fine and normal ... he was talking business with his father-in-law."
