A coroner has stated that Billy Mays died from a pulmonary embolism not a blow to the head as was once thought.
Mays, 50, was on a US Airways flight Saturday when the plane experienced a rough landing. During that time, something fell from a compartment overhead and hit him on his head. He later joked about it on his Twitter page.
The Oxiclean spokesman died later that same weekend.
But according to a Tampa coroner the preliminary autopsy results show evidence of heart disease, with no trauma to the head. Mays had an enlarged heart and a thickening of the ventricle.
Sad news, but I bet US Airways is breathing a sigh of relief..

Another “celebrity” who was 50 just died. He had a lot going for him.
May Billy Mays rest in peace despite some of the negative things people say.
