    Paul Walker died cause him and his friend were speeding and street racing. Similar to Ryan Dunn who died drunk driving. I think it’s been long enough to call them out and remind people they didn’t die as heroes, they died being idiots and luckily didn’t kill a bunch of innocent people with them

    I’m not sure I want Williams to see the Trump era of America. I think it might have killed him again.

      Whoever downvoted you, has never seen actual Robin Williams Standup or knows much about his political views.

      Robin hated Bush Sr. and Jr., especially Jr., with a passion.

      trump would send him off the deep end, as you suggested.

    As much as I would love for Robin Williams to be back and brightening the world again it would be incredibly selfish of us to forget that he was incredibly unhappy in life and killed himself in a very unpleasant way because of it.

    So definitely the centipede.

      Iirc he killed himself because he had an aggressive form of dementia and didn’t want to live like that.

      Yes, I started thinking in that direction as well, but then I thought about how the radiodonts did their millions of years of existence and now can rest.

    The thing with Robin is that, regardless of his mental health, he would’ve been the type of person to curse the choice of bringing someone back to be wasted on him.

    While it is commonly believed he took his life due to a constant battle with depression, we do not know exactly what his resolve was, and bringing him back could be seen as hell in his eyes.

      It wasn’t depression. He was diagnosed with Lewy body dementia.

      He allegedly took his life so he wouldn’t slowly lose himself, and become a burden on his family.

        Parkinson’s, actually. They corrected it to LBD during his autopsy.

        Apparently him and his wife weren’t satisfied with the Parkinson’s diagnosis as he had some abnormal psychological issues, so they decided to have some neurology tests scheduled. He unfortunately took his life before the appointment, so he never knew the real diagnosis.

    Robin Williams had a degenerative nerve disease, bringing him back as he was would be cruel.

    Bringing him back healed, or young and healed? I’d let you hunt some species to extinction for that.

    When I say I don’t care about celebrities that includes the “good” ones. Weird centipede thing 100%.

    No offence to Robin Williams, but I think having a living specimen of an ancient species who lived millions of years ago might help scientists advance evolutionary biology by a lot

    Or maybe not, but look at that little guy, he’s so cute :D

      That specimen might also die really quickly considering it’s a whole different world, not even the atmosphere is similar, and without more of it’s species to multiply I would say it would be really cool to see but not super helpful to study

        Yeah. I dunno. They look like that weird alien parasite from TNG that tried to take over star fleet while eating bugs.

    I normally don’t care when celebrities pass away. But I genuinely cried when Robin Williams died. And I’m still sad about it.

    Gonna be honest, I only vaguely recognise the name Patrick Swayze without knowing exactly what he’s famous for. An actor, I think? And I have zero idea who Paul Walker is. Anomalocarus I gather from context is an extinct animal of some sort, which is cool, but I lack the knowledge to know precisely why this specific species is highly valuable.

    So Robin Williams gets my vote almost by default, even if I didn’t have more reason to choose him beyond that.

      I admire your dedication to contribute something to the conversation while only knowing less than half the knowledge necessary one would guess necessary to have an opinion worthy of sharing.
