[MarkRae]

What about Hitler? I read somewhere that he'd made an off-the-cuff remark about Jewish people...

[Bobbisox]

Oi...stick to Buddy..LOL

I heard that he lived to the ripe old age of 22. Is this correct, and is it true he died in a plane crash?

Did any other pop or film stars die younger than this?

On the assumption that you're not joking, yes on both counts. It's actually quite a well-known story: I heard that he lived to the ripe old age of 22. Is this correct, and is it true he died in a plane crash? People have even written songs about it...

Eddie Cochrane

Ritchie Valens,who died in the same plane crash in which Buddy Holly and The
Big Bopper ( J.P. Richardson ) perished.
He was 17 years 10 months.

The day the music died. RIP
