Of all the land muppets, Sweetums was always my favorite. Rest well, big fella.
YES I MISS JIM TOO! HOPEFULLY FRANK OZ WILL KEEP THE LEGACY GOING!
THEY ALL GOT ONE LAST MOVIE IN! PRAYERS BE WITH HIS FAMILY!
I’m still mourning Jim Henson’s passing. Now this sad news!
Tragic. He will be missed.
Veronica, with all due respect about definition of heart attacks. I have had eight in the last 20 years. My most recent was a ventricular tachycardia. Had nothing to do with the heart muscle. This one would have killed me, had it not been for my ICD, (implanted cardioverter/defibrillator. So, when are time is up, it is up. Only God can determine that. My deepest condolences to the Henson Family.
Um, it wasn’t “the media” that called it a “massive” heart attack. It was the Jim Henson Company.
Massive isnt just a dramatic adjective. There is a difference between a “massive Heart Attack’ and a “Heart Attack” A mild heart attack affects a relatively small portion of the heart muscle, or does not cause much permanent heart damage..A massive heart attack affects a large portion of the heart muscle, or causes a large amount of heart damage.
My prays go out to the Henson family. Friends and loved ones
Jacob great point I swear all people that work in the media were bullies or were bullies as children on a lighter note when my daughter was being baptize the priest use the words now we take the wet water didn’t know they was any other
did they need to say “massive” heart attack?
its like when paul walker passed away and every report said “firey” car crash, instead of just “car crash”. we dont need these details, you’re just trying to make it exciting. i hate the media.
Terrible news, poor guy
So sad!
This is so tragic.
