The Last Words Spoken By Famous People ~The grisly thought about a deathbed might be quite unnerving for anyone, but not for these famous people. Knowing the last words that someone spoke can sometimes throw light on their character or on the circumstances in which they died. You can't help but feel that some of the last quotes by famous people on this list encapsulate their personas. From the ever level-headed Winston Churchill, who declared in his final moments that he's 'so bored with it all' to the last wish from John Belushi to not be left alone. These famous last words can sometimes be ironically funny, and other times - eloquent and truly deep. #1 Todd Beamer Was A Passenger On United Flight 93, September 11, 2001. These Are His Last Recorded Words At The End Of A Cell Phone Call Before Beamer And Others Attempted To Storm The Airliner's Cockpit To Retake It From Hijackers. The Plane Crashed Near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

It is good he was able to climb all those steep steps so close to the end.

Not many would say this, no matter their beliefs.

I agree, Rick. Most people, even non believers, cry out for God's help when in big trouble.

I recently saw a reenactment of this on TV ... a fatal misunderstanding.

It sure was, Rick. I could not believe he was gone so quickly.
He seemed so down to earth and real. I really liked him. |

Amazing, Rick, but she didn't live long enough to become famous.

I have an electronic chess set, very nice, anyway, it has a setting where you can play as if you were playing against him. I've never even opened it yet, i have so many chess boards. I should get it out and play on that setting, probably get whupped but it'd be fun

Yes!! Very much so. Their life style certainly seems to lead to early death. |

#54 Brittany Murphy
The young star collapsed in the bathroom of her Hollywood Hills home on Dec. 20, 2009 after battling flu-like symptoms for a few days. She cried, “Mommy, I can’t catch my breath. Help me,” before passing out in the arms of her mother, Sharon, and husband, Simon Monjack, her mother recalled, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The coroner ruled Murphy’s death an accident and the police closed the case. Yet its circumstances cast a spotlight on Monjack just months before his own death. The pair met on the set of his film White Hotel (2001), and married in May of 2007.
Alternately grief-stricken, pointed and vague when answering questions about his wife and his own history at the time, Monjack refuted reports that Murphy was addicted to prescription drugs, despite the numerous pill bottles found at the scene. “My wife was not abusing prescription drugs that I was aware of,” he told PEOPLE after her death. ~ |
