Michael Clarke Duncan -- best known for his Oscar-nominated role as a death row inmate who possessed magical healing powers in the 1999 film "The Green Mile" -- died on Monday at the age of 54, according to his fiancee Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth.

Duncan had been in a Los Angeles hospital since July 13 following a heart attack and died on Monday morning after close to two months of treatment.

yeah, heart disease has nothing to do with diet or exercise. but it will never be popular because people like to feel in control, like they can do something to stop death. that and keeping people scared makes it easier to sell them crap.


he was a unique actor, when he was cast for a role he made sure no one else could ever play it. his presence will be missed.

diet and exercise have nothing to do with heart disease.

overweight people live longer.

i exercise because it makes me feel better, not because it will keep me from being sick. either extreme will hurt you, but that heart logo on coco-puffs will not stop you from having a heart-attack. it is marketing. it might give you metabolic-syndrome but that is about it. and walking is the best exercise there is, but that can't really be marketed like yoga or a bow-flex.

having an agenda like building muscle or being a contortionist =\= trying to be healthy.

overweight people live longer.
