      He was on a flight that landed hard in Tampa. Luggage hit his head and he went to bed not feeling well. Both of these are from the article.

      Since luggage hit his head why wasn't he checked out at the hospital? It is quite possible that he had a brain injury.

      He may have been a bit annoying at times, but Billy Mays certainly was good at his job, and he did his job in a positive way. He will be missed.

        Maybe he developed a blood clot after hitting his head on the flight.

          It's another sad day for the advertising world. With the loss of Billy Mays, watching TV infomercials, won't be the same without him.
          He was a great TV pitchman, he helped sell millions of products and he will be missed.
