TIL James Irwin was the first moonwalking astronauts to die when he suffered a heart attack at age 61 in 1991. He always believed that his heart disorder was related with his flight to the moon. NASA didn’t substantiate Irwin’s claim because he was the only astronaut to develop the problem

Yeah, going to the moon leading to heart disorders sounds like a pretty tough thing to study.
I didn’t realize he died in 1991. He visited my school in about 1984, I got a signed photo of him on the moon.
Not funny, but I was reading it was like moonwalk dance, until redd more.
My neighbor would somehow believe it was because of the “jab” 30 years later be damned.
The curse of Michael Jackson lives on.
So…. smart as he was logic wasn’t really his strong suit?
