I was about to say Gwen Stefani isn’t dead, but realized that’s Brittany Murphy

Murphy and Williams.
I don’t even know who 4 of those are.

Neither is Wade Boggs

Heath Ledger not dying might have prevented the awful DKR from being made, so him.
The rest can fight to the death over who else lives.

I want to say Cobain and Williams because I’ve heard most suicide survivors regret their decision (please correct me if that’s inaccurate), but Farley.....oh man maybe him and I could figure out a way to bring John Candy back.

Don’t recognize about five of them.
I’ll take Farley, and for a sec I was hoping that was Do lores O’Riordan in the top left, but it’s not....so Cobain.

I didn’t remember Chester Bennington (top left, singer for Linkin Park) was dead but he also went by suicide. Who is top right?

I honestly can’t say, and excellent point. Seems like a lot of people in the spotlight/creatives go that way

Farley and Hedberg are good. I’d like to see Williams back. Murphy and Walker would be good opposite each other.
I don’t know if I can pick 2

Pr obably shouldn’t bring back anyone that intentionally killed themselves.

I don’t know if people regret it, but I have seen studies referenced saying that if you can delay someone’s attempt, even briefly, they often reconsider.

Wade Boggs probably should be dead though:
Note that the sign may be an understatement: Wade Boggs Told Charlie Day He Drank 107 Beers in a Day. We Believe Him.

I'd bring back the two who didn't die of suicide or an overdose.
![]() 06/08/2020 at 13:02 |

I didn’t recognize four of them, and wasn’t certain about a fifth.
That said, I'm right there with you on those two. One of my best friends and I will randomly text each other Hedberg jokes. Sometimes with months in between them.

I with you. runner up would be Cobain. Farley was at his prime. Mitch, just a funn y guy. A severed leg makes a perfect stocking stuffer.

Yeah that’s what I had heard too. It was an article about the nets under the Golden Gate Bridge and how few people go on to try to complete suicide again

Have you not seen the episode? That’s the whole premise: the gang tries to beat Boggs’ record! The episode is called “The Gang Beats Boggs” and then there’s a second episode where the ladies and Frank try and do it.

But what if the other side is way better and they come back really pissed at you?

Yep, was reading a lot about this stuff after there was a spate of suicides at Cornell when I was in Ithaca. They put fencing on the bridges as a temporary measure, which seemed a bit oppressive, and intuitively pretty useless, since people could just walk a very short distance and jump into the gorges from nearby cliffs, but people far more knowledgeable than me seemed pretty convinced that even putting up a small hindrance would be sufficient to let most people rethink their decision.

Yeah, only two of the people here didn’t really want to go. Bringing back the others would kind of be a dick move.

More than two by my reck oning.
Brittany Murphy died from pneumonia , Paul Walker and Kob e Bryant both died in accidents and you can’t really be sure the overdoses were intentional.

How about none of them?
I mean, if we can bring back celebrities why not “regular” people? Or are celebrities worth more? I mean why cant I choose to bring back my buddy Kevin who died of a sudden stroke at 42 and left behind a 9 year old son. Or how about Qin and David who got blown up in Iraq?
Maybe its wrong to circumvent the natural cycle of life and death because it inherently v alues one life over another. I mean, aren’ t we currently marching and protesting over the inequality of the value of certain human lives right now?

Tough call.
I remember being shook by the death of Brittany Murphy. I cannot explain why. I was upset. I just recall it hitting me in a way that didn’t make sense for knowing of a person, but not actually having any sort of relationship with them. it was weird.
Hedberg and Williams would be at the top of my list. I was also looking forward to post-NBA Kobe. And what is F&F without Brian OConnor?
Damn. Tough fucking call.

Yeah Paul Walker was banging his daughters underage friend so he can stay gone in my book and I assume all the suicides want to stay gone. So Kobe?

Hedberg & Farley for sure. Mitch was such a singular talent. Amazing comedian.

The only person I recognize in those pics is Robin Williams... I would love to have him back. But... there would be problems.
If you brought back someone who killed themselves (like Robin Williams):
1. Wouldn’t they be pissed off that you brought them back?
2. Wouldn’t they want to off themselves again since they decided they didn’t want to live?
What would you do about these issues?
And another thing... what if you brought them back, but they weren’t the same... like what happened to Khal Drogo when he was brought back from the dead on Game of Thrones?

Good reasoning!
