Monty Oum RIP at 33 :[

A few people here will recognise the name I think. He's the guy who created the Dead Fantasy animations, Haloid, Red vs Blue, and a few other things including the recent RWBY series. I really loved all of his stuff; he wasn't perfect in every area but the fight scenes he created were always amazingly well done, always really fun to watch. I really loved the Ruby, Yang, and Pyrrha characters in RWBY too.

He died due to a severe allergic reaction during a simple medical procedure, which must only be making it even harder for his friends and family to deal with.

Sad thing. Pretty young and was so good at what he enjoyed.

I really like rooster teeth but didn't really know much about him... Fucking sucks how this can happen, wouldn't have said their goodbyes, would seem like such a waste and the alternatives would be so simply live with whatever issue he had.

I lost my shit a few weeks back when a surgeon told me there is a chance my little girl could never wake from a general anesthetic after splitting her lip... Lost it, was in tears at the thought, all for a split lip.

It's crazy to lose someone like that, they should still be here... This dude should be alive.

Oh yeah, it's just a general anesthetic, but they have to tell you the risks... There is a teeny chance of problems happening but I didn't know and it was delivered to me very bluntly.
Basically said there is a small chance she won't wake again, I felt the blood drain out of my face and started to feel sick at the thought, went outside and thought what are we doing? This is crazy?
Then I cried for the first time in probably 15 years.

The thought off losing my girl like this was too much for me but I didn't realize how small the chances were.
