During the emotional call, Billy's wife is asked to move his body from the bed to the floor so she can perform CPR -- just like in the Michael Jackson 911 call -- but then an unknown male takes the phone to tell the dispatcher, "It's too late."

We're told by Tampa police officials the mystery male heard in the call was a family friend who was visiting from out of town.

31. What does wearing your seat belt have to do with items falling from where they were stored? I don't think that it matters .
RIP Billy and my condolences to the family.

32. first,once the operator hears he is rigid,she stops telling them to try CPR.
if any of people knew what kind of moronic phone calls 911 get everyday,
you would realize the operator has to talk like that.
second,the autopsy today will tell right away if the bump on the head caused his death.
who said he wasnt wearing a seatbelt? that hasnt been confirmed by anyone.
He said stuff fell on him ,not that he hit his head on the ceiling.
He probably had a regular heart attack.
He was getting a new hip today but kept flying all over the place pitching his crappolla.

36. Didn't work for me either! Not that I really wanted to listen to it anyway!! Maybe it was the English guy that he did "Pitchman" with? I had to call 911 for a death and you are in total shock and no one else was with me. You are in shock for days. That's why I can't understand why Michael Jacksons father and sister could go to an awards ceremony even if it was a tribute to Michal. Let's respect Billy's family. R.I.P. Billy

41. That 911 call should be personal and not released. So sad, his TV show was just taking off. The Taco Bell commercials were going to be funny. The As Seen On TV brand will suffer without Billy. Billy's last pitch...

Here's how to order... Call Now.

42. The surest way to know someone is gone is if they've pooped their pants,no poop and there's still hope

43. OMG! how very sad. RIP Billy. Prayers for Billy's wife and family. He will be missed.

.....that said....the voice of the 911 operator has got to be the most annoying monotone whiny condescending voice. Do they not screen operators not only for knowledge but voice quality as well?

44. I can't believe how rude the 911 operator is. Why are they all so rude!!?? I don't understand it, "Ma'am you're going to have to calm down!" I mean, please....can't they be taught to use a nicer tone. Then she keeps asking why it's too late...please.. Ridiculous.

45. At the end the dispatcher says something about, "Put away the family pets"

Anyone know why?
