This Guy Died, Except He Didn’t

Occasionally, things in my life happen twice. It’s an anomaly I’m still trying to figure out. (Edit: This one turned out to be simply mistaken identity, which is a relief. It usually isn’t so simple to solve.) It first happened in the 1980s when a favorite actor, Will Sampson, died of a heart attack. Then about five years later, he died again of the same cause. No one remembered the first death but me. I’ve seen threads online in the past couple of years about remembered deaths that happened again later — the only anomaly I’ve ever been able to get any kind of validation for. Other things, not so much.
A year or so back, in my other-reality (no idea where this might be, but), Hulk Hogan died. I read about it, and about Cyndi Lauper and her history with him, which I witnessed back when she was big and doing music videos with him. But last night, I saw an ad on TNT about how he was going to be on some live wrestling show this week sometime, making a guest appearance or a comeback or something. And so, he’s not dead yet. Unfortunately, I can’t remember how he died — I just remember how his show with his family would be carrying on without him, etc. I don’t even know if it’s still on, as I have never watched it.
So I wanted to document his non-death, since it’s the first opportunity I’ve had to document a “memory” like this before it actually happened again. I’ll be intrigued to see when he actually dies.
Remind me later to tell you the other weird anomalies in reality that I’ve seen. I’ve become much more watchful for things like that now. It makes me wonder, a lot.

Is it possible that you were remembering bits and pieces about the death of “Captain” Lou Albano? He, too, had been a pro wrestler, and had appeared as Cyndi’s “father” in a couple of her videos. He died in October of 2009.
That must be it! Well, I’m glad there’s an explanation, for once. lol Thank you for clearing that up. I feel mildly less crazy.
Better absent-minded than crazy, eh?
