Autopsy Shows Billy Mays Had No Head Trauma

Billy Mays autopsyThe Hillsborough County Medical Examiner just announced the results of Billy Mays' autopsy -- and said there was no connection between Billy's death and Saturday's rough aircraft landing.

Billy had admitted to suffering a blow to the head when the front tires of US Airways Flight 1421 blew upon landing -- but the doc said he found "no signs of internal or external head trauma."

Dr. Chrostowski said Billy most likely died from complications due to heart disease. He said the autopsy showed "hypertensive and arteriosclerotic disease of the heart" -- which is known to cause sudden death.

The doc said Billy -- who was scheduled to have his third hip replacement surgery today -- had prescriptions for tramadol and hydrocodone, but said Mays had no history of drug abuse and "the counts of remaining medication are correct."

The doc will announce the official cause of death once all test results are in.

66. A lot of you should be ashamed of the stuff you are writing. He died, he has a wife and kids. Have some respect. Would you want people talking about you like that when you die? I think not!!!! If you don't have anything good to say then don't say anything. And yeah, U.S. Airways sure did bit the bullet!!

67. You're not supposed to mix those two medications, either...They may want to look into that...IF he was taking both at the same time...

68. As someone who has 2 patents, I sure wish I had a pitchman like Billy Mays. He was a great voice for the American Inventor. Hundreds of people now live the American dream thanks to him. Too bad all the hate on this site is written by people who never had an original concept in their tiny useless hate-filled brains. It's amazing how quickly some judge, while never looking at their own failures in life. OOOOH, i can rip apart a dead man on a comment board, but i still live in mommy's basement.... And to those touting 1st amendment rights, yes we all have them, but it doesn't mean that you're less of a douche.

71. #57 vivi libero o muori: What you posted is ignorant. Freedom of speech pertains to the GOVERNMENT and the PEOPLE, not a CORPORATION and the PEOPLE.

Time Warner people could come in here and wipe out any posts they want, they own this site and what people post here is not protected under the 1st Amendment.

I am not even a lawyer and learned this in elementary school.

74. His commercials are still being shown on TV - I 've seen three already, since he died. As my husband says, they paid him so they're getting their money's worth. They could lay off for a few days though, out of respect for the man.

75. Everyone making sick jokes about this man's death should be ashamed of their sickening words. It's utterly disgusting and not even remotely amusing. He may have had an annoying voice, but he was a human being like all of you people who think you're so superior, and was earning an honest living. He didn't force anybody to buy what he was selling, any more than any other commercial or pitchman does. May God rest his souls and comfort his family.
