Step 1. Click "+" after the last tab on Firefox or Edge.
Step 2. Open Google. I have it as the first bookmark on favorites.
Step 3. Choose "Images".
Step 4. Click back to first tab where image appears.
Step 5. Left Click and drag image to new tab until the browser switches tabs.
Step 6. Drop the image on the images' search box.
Step 7. Click on the spyglass to search.
Step 8. Search tells you which late celebrity it is.

Net time to do this? About 15-30 seconds.

Come on, CO! I used to complain about people not being identified here, and even I can do a reverse image lookup.

He was 96. Funny thing, he was in a German concentration camp in WW2.

Robert Cleary, played the Frenchman in Hogan’s Heroes. Now, let me check if my memory is correct. Well, half right: His name was Robert Clary. I misremembered the spelling of his last name.

I had no idea the blonde chick from Roxette died 3 years ago of a brain tumor at 61. Where's the inspection log? How the fuck did we miss this entry?

To quote Blue Oyster Cult in Don't Fear The Reaper: "40,000 every day. 40,000 men and women every day." Let's presume that about 1/10 of 1% of the public are celebrities. That means about 40 celebrities die every day. This isn't the game of Pokemon, we can't catch 'em all.

If you can't trust lyrics from a 46-year-old BOC song for your statistics, who can you?

The problem with earth is that we don't have significant enough die-off events to keep population growth in check. That\s why the earth has about 8,000,000,000 people.

But since there are more people, let's say the numbers have doubled. That means that 80,000 people die every day, and if 1/10 of 1% are celebrities, it's 80 of those a day..

The current number is 158,686 deaths per day. So, presumably, that means about 158 celebrities die every day.

Which BOC song determined that one out of every thousand people is a celebrity?

I'm making a guess. My number might be too high, as 1/10 of 1% of 8 billion means there are about 800,000 celebrities worldwide.

So if I make it 1/100 of 1% instead, there are 80,000 celebrities worldwide and about 15 of them die each day.
