Okay, this is probably stupid, but... when has that ever stopped me?
What about Enterprise? The series was approaching its end. The people in charge did a viewer poll to find out who the most popular character was. The fans picked a pretty likable guy. So, in order to make the series finale more emotional and dramatic... They killed him off.
And, while you're randomly and inexplicably pulling out random links about people dying in strange ways, why are you ignoring all the men who have died recently, for whatever reason?
