Don't know how this one got away, but apparently "Mr. Wizard" died three days ago!

I remember him from my childhood. I think I used to catch his stuff on Nickelodeon.

Apparently he died of multiple myeloma.

RIP "Mr. Wizard." You inspired many kids to enter the world of science.

"Donald Jeffry Herbert (born Donald Herbert Kemske; July 10, 1917 – June 12, 2007), better known as "Mr. Wizard"
