In December 2016, Imahara became engaged to his long-time girlfriend, costume designer Jennifer Newman.
There was still so much more for Grant to do, so much more to experience and enjoy.
R.I.P.

I still can't believe it, a world treasure just gone like that...

This news brought me to tears. Grant was my favorites on a show that taught me to think critically. Thank you Grant for who you were.

Haven't you caused enough pain 2020?!

My dad was age 49 when I lost him. Losing someone that young leaves an extra sting.

Nice guy.

So long Sulu from "Star Trek Continues". :(
SlightlyDodgy
Awesome series. Shame a few shit clones wrecked it for everyone involved

Gone too soon. Like a beautiful sunset at noon.

I unashamedly had such a crush on him, but regardless he was far too young & talented to go. He will be missed by many.
Dooknugget
My heart is so broken. He seemed like such an awesome man.

Geoff Peterson was such a great part of the Craig Ferguson show.

Enjoy three minutes of wholesome Grant Imahara goodness. https://youtu.be/JB_d_A2LdQI

I didn’t believe you, so I googled. Preview of his Wiki said “is”. Clicked, and it said “was”.
drahgosempire
I'm tired of crying
smtrrr
I am so sad. he looked like a wonderful person... and he was so young still :(
CrimsonShortOne
God damn i love him so much. He will be missed so much
Cheomesh
Huh, I thought there was just the two guys and the girl on that show.
gnarlyfartz
Alpha nerd with a smokin hot wife, at least we know he had a good life.
WhatsAnAndrew
I was so shocked when I saw this news this morning. May he Rest In Peace.
CidColetti
I know we only knew him from TV but the guy just seemed like a genuinely good dude. What a damn shame.
kamesha
Saw him T dragoncon - he was amazing and inspirational
PinkPrincess007
From twitter post of others who worked with him he was a very kind all around nice guy.
Metzae
I worked with him several times. He was a genuinely awesome person.
DarkBusterBaron
Can you make a post about it?
Metzae
Done! /a/mZSVdt2
InspiredForestRaptor
I thought this was a clever way of "hey this guy was on Mythbusters and I miss him"
InspiredForestRaptor
Now I am so sad.... T. T
Jusmar
He was always my favorite of the build team
sheebalasvegas
he was my fav of the whole show tbh
shorey66
I can't believe he was 49! He looks so much younger.
Mou5e
Gotta figure, Mythbusters came out close to 20 years ago. Where has the time gone my friend?
venster
Those asian genes!
uzidoesit2
Asian genetics my dude.
AReasonablyPrudentPerson
Such a handsome man! RIP
AnythingMuchShorter
I saw him in person a few years ago, must've been about 47. He didn't look any older than he did on Mythbusters when I was a kid.
Metzae
This was him at 45. https://giphy.com/gifs/S3yY1mnSHdzoJ5TPza

Aneurysm :\
knuckledeepinachicken
His brain was too stronk.

That's fucking terrible
WaaaahiteWolfRamza
Aneurysms my third greatest fear....
spicykale
hokeyreligions
They can happen anywhere, at anytime.
raulote
How is it possible for a young person to get one? He looked pretty young. (Just curious)
TheFinalCountdown89
Genetics= number one risk factor
RemiRixJones
Aneurysms can happen without obvious cause. Around age 40-50, there’s a sharp increase in incidence/mortality of some types IIRC.
Kougeru
It's possible for anyone to get one
Darrions
Aneurysms can come from heredity disposition, simple weakness in a blood vessel or as many cases old age weakening your blood vessels.
Darrions
Simply put it means you could die anytime without having a single clue about what is happening to you
sarboran5
That's how my dad went.
IAmDrBanner
Frankly, everyone with the means to should do a full checkup at least once a year. Scans and everything. There are so many things that /1
IAmDrBanner
can just end us with little warning if they arent caught early. /2
RemiRixJones
I agree with the sentiment, but we’re not at the point where a yearly MRI is feasible or diagnostically relevant for the avg person.
IAmDrBanner
Which is why I specifically said "If you have the means". I know it is not for the average person, of course.
ihateclownz
or if you don't live in the US just go get checked for little to no cost
redhotbrianpeppers
What a great misconception about healthcare abroad! You can't just show up without symptoms and say "I want a free brain CT scan."
Lucky246
Its this kind of shit that makes changing the US health care system an even bigger fight
PballQhead
There's no "checkup" in the world that covers an MRI, you need symptoms to get one otherwise is $4000+
PballQhead
Actually, now that I think about it, having had one myself for a potential aneurysm, they're literally prescription. Can't get one without.
IAmDrBanner
I realize. Which is why I said "if you have the means" and "Scans and everything".
PballQhead
Right, but literally no one in America has "the means", outside of having $5,000 a year.
