    The weird thing - for me anyway, was that I watched Armageddon about a week ago on free-to-air when I hadn't seen it for about 10 years.

    A healthy lifestyle is no guarantee that you'll live longer/better than someone with an unhealthy lifestyle. There are vegetarians who regularly exercise who die prematurely, yet carnivorous smokers who live longer... but statistically speaking healthy lifestyle practices greatly improve your odds of living longer/better. e.g. greatly reducing chances of having a heart attack. It doesn't make you impervious to heart attacks, but you're just less likely to have one.

    I guess the guy was just unlucky. I'll remember him in his role in the Green Mile, and also as Wilson Fisk in Daredevil.

    Jeanne Calment
    , the oldest person ever recorded at 122 years old, smoked for approx. 100 of those years. As an ex-smoker, if someone guaranteed me that I would live to that age while still smoking, I'd take up the habit again

    Is that someone who eats smoked ham or rolls up their steak and lights it up?

    One of my career dreams if I became a full-on film director was to work with Michael Clarke Duncan, guess that'll never now... ...such a talented actor and he surely will be missed.

    R.I.P.
