    Robin Williams had a degenerative nerve disease, bringing him back as he was would be cruel.

    Bringing him back healed, or young and healed? I’d let you hunt some species to extinction for that.

    Paul Walker died cause him and his friend were speeding and street racing. Similar to Ryan Dunn who died drunk driving. I think it’s been long enough to call them out and remind people they didn’t die as heroes, they died being idiots and luckily didn’t kill a bunch of innocent people with them

    The thing with Robin is that, regardless of his mental health, he would’ve been the type of person to curse the choice of bringing someone back to be wasted on him.

    While it is commonly believed he took his life due to a constant battle with depression, we do not know exactly what his resolve was, and bringing him back could be seen as hell in his eyes.

      It wasn’t depression. He was diagnosed with Lewy body dementia.

      He allegedly took his life so he wouldn’t slowly lose himself, and become a burden on his family.

        Parkinson’s, actually. They corrected it to LBD during his autopsy.

        Apparently him and his wife weren’t satisfied with the Parkinson’s diagnosis as he had some abnormal psychological issues, so they decided to have some neurology tests scheduled. He unfortunately took his life before the appointment, so he never knew the real diagnosis.

    No offence to Robin Williams, but I think having a living specimen of an ancient species who lived millions of years ago might help scientists advance evolutionary biology by a lot

    Or maybe not, but look at that little guy, he’s so cute :D

    I normally don’t care when celebrities pass away. But I genuinely cried when Robin Williams died. And I’m still sad about it.

      I was on the set of Sea of Trees with Gus Van Sant when the news broke. Needless to say, we wrapped suddenly the moment the news broke.

    Robin Williams, but he comes back fully cured of everything and he gets to live a full life happy.
