Celebs who died on the same date

Death is the dark enigma at the center of life, and sometimes, it comes in strange ways … or on strange days. For instance, it's surprisingly common for people to die on their birthdays. There's also the weirdness that occurs when two famous people depart from the Earthly plane on the exact same day, within hours of each other, sometimes in really similar ways. These situations are probably just coincidences, but when they happen, they certainly feel weird.
The absolute strangest glitches in the Matrix, though, might be when celebrities tied together by interest, profession, or fate die on the exact same calendar date, but in different years. It almost feels as if these dates, and these people, are linked together by an invisible thread from the Grim Reaper. While the causes vary, as do the connections, here are some of the most notable cases of celebrities dying on the same date.
