Remember watching this guy when I was a little kid in the 60's. Ate healthy and worked out every day - lived to be 96.

George Burns drank every day and smoked up to 10 cigars a day... lived to be a hundred. :ss

Both men were legends in there own right. But you have to laugh when you think about it though.

Didn't I just see him selling a juicer on an infomercial?

Obviously Jack was not into football. Juice indeed.:D A few more Sundays like this and I'll be joining Jack in the great reward. RIP Jack.:)

I had some juice...80 proof

Noooo! He can't die. He's Jack LaLanne. Everyone else in his family died young.
Edit: Just rtfa, pneumonia can kill old people really quickly, no matter how good of shape they're in.

Best damned juicer I've ever owned. He's made an impact on my family. Thank you Jack. RIP.

There are some people you only realize were still alive when you find out that they have passed. Jack LaLanne was one of those people. RIP.

Here's a pretty cool post I read today about him, it's interesting that so many people were against him when he first started.

Joe, I remember watching him in the morning when I was a kid. My mother would do the workout routines and I think I did too.

RIP Jack.

On the lighter side, here's a comedic classic - the "juice weasel". The secret to long life. :r
