Well, I woke up this morning expecting a nice day, was going to watch some IT Crowd followed by a session of writing my book, but that changed when I looked at Facebook and saw "Rest In Peace Robin Williams, you were taken away too early from us." Obviously after two minutes of being awake I was rather tired and didn't know what to make of the situation so I fired up my laptop, went to Wikipedia and searched for Robin Williams.
Believe it or not he has died. He was found dead in his home and was pronounced dead there.
As soon as the news hit many celebrities such as Simon Pegg, Eddie Izzard, Bill Lawrence and so on took to Twitter to share their grievances. I'm sure a lot of his fans are very upset, including me. Robin Williams shaped a lot of peoples childhoods with movies such as Jumanji, Flubber, Mrs. Doubtfire and Hook. Not only was he an outstanding actor, but he was a superb stand up comedian and amazing person too. The whole intro to Aladin was improvised by Robin Williams, using his creativity to think up the beginning.
Obviously Robin Williams will be missed dearly by his family, friends and fans. Just remember how creative the man was and all the work he did to make us laugh, cry and share our emotions with his work.
"You're only given one little spark of madness You mustn't lose it."
- Robin Williams, July 21 1951 - August 11 2014
