Mythbusters' Grant Imahara's Cause of Death Released After Sudden Death at 49

Mythbusters host Grant Imahara died suddenly at the age of 49 and now his cause of death has been released.

According to THR, Grant passed away suddenly after suffering from a brain aneurysm.

According to the Mayo Clinic, “a brain aneurysm is a bulge or ballooning in a blood vessel in the brain. It often looks like a berry hanging on a stem.” When aneurysms burst, it can cause bleeding in the brain, called a hemorrhagic stroke. The Clinic added, “A ruptured aneurysm quickly becomes life-threatening and requires prompt medical treatment.”

“We are heartbroken to hear this sad news about Grant. He was an important part of our Discovery family and a really wonderful man. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family,” a representative for Discovery said in a statement.

Just six months into the year, we’ve already lost so many amazing stars and we’re remembering them all.

Our thoughts are with Grant‘s loved ones during this difficult time. RIP.
