Shocking celebrity deaths

Bruce Lee (November 27, 1940 - July 20, 1973): Considered by many as the most influential martial artist of the 20th century, and a cultural icon, Lee is noted for his roles in five feature length films, The Big Boss (1971), Fist of Fury (1972), Way of the Dragon (1972), Enter the Dragon (1973), and The Game of Death (1978). On May 10, 1973, Lee collapsed in Golden Harvest studios while doing dubbing work for the movie Enter the Dragon. Suffering from seizures and headaches, he was immediately rushed to Hong Kong Baptist Hospital where doctors diagnosed cerebral edema. These same symptoms that occurred in his first collapse were later repeated on the day of his death. On October 15, 2005, producer Raymond Chow stated in an interview that Lee died from a hypersensitivity to the muscle relaxant in Equagesic. His iconic status and untimely demise fed many theories about his death, including murder involving the Triad society and a supposed curse on him and his family. (Wikipedia)
