Umrl je Grant Imahara, eden od voditeljev oddaje MythBusters (Uničevalca mitov) na Discovery Channel

Grant Imahara, eden od voditeljev legendarne oddaje MythBusters (Uničevalca mitov) na Discovery Channel je v ponedeljek, 13.7.2020 umrl. Star je bil 49 let. Kot je poročal The Hollywood Reporter, pa naj bi Imahara umrl zaradi možganske anevrizme.

Grant Imahara, ki je bil sicer inženir strojništva in strokovnjak za robotiko, je bil najbolj poznan po znanstveni seriji/oddaji MythBusters (Uničevalca mitov) v kateri je skupaj s soigralci razbijal mite o tem in onem. Seriji se je pridružil v tretji sezoni in zamenjal Scottie Chapman. Del MythBusters skupine je bil med leti 2005 in 2014. Videli pa smo ga lahko tudi na Netflixu v seriji White Rabbit Project v kateri se je »MythBusters trio« Grant Imahara, Kari Byron in Tory Belleci ponovno združil.

Predstavnik Discoveryja je povedal:

We are heartbroken to hear this sad news about Grant. He was an important part of our Discovery family and a really wonderful man. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Nekaj sožalnih besed so izrekli tudi nekdanji sovoditelji.

I’m at a loss. No words. I’ve been part of two big families with Grant Imahara over the last 22 years. Grant was a truly brilliant engineer, artist and performer, but also just such a generous, easygoing, and gentle PERSON. Working with Grant was so much fun. I’ll miss my friend.
