Jack LaLanne

[Damn Yankee]

I just read that he died on May 19..
Remember his dog Happy and those one arm handstands he would do years ago on TV?

 

[ladder13]

any idea how old he was?

 

[DrewW]

Are you sure he is dead? I can't find an article about it anywhere, everything I have found says he is still alive.

 

[Damn Yankee]

Look under his picture on here.

According to the "Dead or Alive?" website he is still quite alive.

Maybe he died, but was in such good shape that no one noticed.

If he did die, RIP. He did a lot of good for a lot of people.

If still alive, it appears he'll be 95 in September.

OOPS! Just checked the link...looks like he died last Tuesday.

That's funny right there, I don't care who you are.

Maybe Answers.com is full of PooP.

Two different "Dead or Alive?" sites show his as still breathing. These sites are usually pretty up to date.


Dear or Alive?

Dead or Alive? #2

My Mom had the Jack LaLanne stretcher. It was rubber 6 feet long blue with handles on each end.

Oh I forgot to say, it didn't leave marks on my backside.

These should be issued to every Mother in this country.

He's not dead. That's a goof.

I remember once as a little kid, I was watching his TV show and he told the audience that his German Shepherd used to be a Chihuahua, but started exercising and eating good food. I believed him.

Dead or alive, he is/was a remarkable man.

I went to the gym he had in Oakland, CA back about 1950 or there abouts. Worked out for a few minutes & Jack came by. He was walking on his hands !!! Talk about getting attention, he got it. Saw him on TV a couple of months ago, they said he was 92. He looked good.

 

[ChadW]

Definitely still alive.

No mention of his "death" on jacklalanne.com OR wikipedia... the best source of information anywhere....

But seriously.. wikipedia WOULD have it if he died.
