FAA -- Billy Wasn't Wearing a Seat Belt on Plane

Posted Jun 28th 2009 12:58PM by TMZ Staff
The FAA is already deflecting blame for the death of Billy Mays -- claiming the legendary TV pitchman wasn't wearing a seat belt when he took a shot to the head during a rough landing on a flight he was on yesterday.

Here's what we know -- Billy Mays was aboard US Airways Flight 1241 flying from Philadelphia, which landed roughly when the front tire blew out as it touched down. After the flight, Billy told FOX 13 in Tampa that something struck him in the head -- here's Billy's actual quote:

"All of a sudden as we hit you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head."

We called the FAA for comment, and a spokesperson told us, "The passenger needs to wear a seat belt during landing and he didn't."

A spokesperson for US Airways did not want to comment until more information comes to light.

Billy posted about it last on his Twitter last night, saying, "Just had a close call landing in Tampa. The tires blew out upon landing. Stuck in the plane on the runway. You can always count on US Air."

 

In one of the articles I read it said he was hit in the head when his plane landed. Bring back memories of some one who hit their head skiing???

You beat me Neon

 

RIP Billy Mays. Maybe they should make him into a paste, make him stronger!

 

I was thinking the same thing... *looking around nervously for anything headed my way*

You're safe - you're not "50"..... but I am

 

Seatbelt or no seatbelt, something hitting you in the head could not prevent that from happening. Can you say LAWSUIT...


Im fucking sad, no more seasons of PitchMen

 

Does anybody know if Oxy Clean works well on skid marks.

I have a part time job taste testing taco truck food, so I was just wondering.

 

Shit.

you sir are going to hell..... that's funny as shit.... but still going to hell

 

Those of you that laughed at it are coming with me too.

 

Does this mean we have two more coming?

 

i was totally about to make a thread on this

 

thats crazy!!

But, i think its all a hoax..there with elvis somewhere playing poker.

 

Ka-booom!

 

Don't know it normally sticks to just three. Thats just something my grandparents and parents have always said. Normally it is pretty true, they are also oddly enough connected. But I live in a small town everyone here is related or something.

 

What is weird is that I heard this on ESPN, but not on purpose. It was during some baseball segment and Rod Kruk said "Billy Mays is dead?" But the other guys on the set were kind of scolding him for talking while they were on the air, as they had just come back from some video clip.

Looked it up and didn't see anything on the news outlets. Then say it on Yahoo about 30 minutes later.

 

hats off to jandrews. funny as hell

 

Shit, Vince wins by default.

 

His airplane had a hard landing when the tire blew out last nigh. Some piece of the roof hit him in the head.

They are going to blame the airline for his death.
