Oh wow, he was such a terrific part of the show. I saw one site saying, "Imahara died suddenly following a brain aneurysm [...]"
I have a Nephew who's big into robotics, mech engineering, he was a huge fan.

RIP, man I was saddened to see that this morning. He seemed like a really good guy. Enjoyed him on Mythbusters.
This one was a bigger gut punch than most of the recent passing for me. This man was brilliant, and I’ve never seen anyone comment on him with anything other than him being a genuinely nice and caring person.
MythBusters was a huge part of my growing up.

It's quite shocking. He was older than I thought and looked so healthy. I loved his role on Mythbusters.
Yes, he was always so calm and methodical with his approach to their builds. He was also really enjoyable to watch, fun loving, kind, and even a bit shy but always endearing. It's a sad and sudden loss but we have many backlogged years of shows we can look back on as well. RIP Grant, he was one of the good ones.Grant Imahara, host of MythBusters, dies at 49

Have to agree, although the gut punch is coming from a different perspective for me.
I'm exactly one month and 4 days older than him. I will be 50 in September. It was way too early for Grant to go.
I want to remember him in the TableTop episode in which he plays Dead of Winter (which convinced me to purchase the game). I recommend this video to everyone, it's so genuine and fun.

This one really surprised me when I read it this morning. MythBusters is one of my favorite shows and Grant really brought a lot to it. I fully agree with the poster above who called him brilliant. I loved watching what he would come up with.
Sad news for sure. 2020 seriously sucks.

I didn’t want the show very much. He seemed like a nice guy. A shame he died so young. Good to know he didn’t suffer.
