RIP Cliff Robertson

Actor Cliff Robertson died today in a tragic airplane accident. The Spider-Man 3 star was an avid fan of flying and owned several aircraft. He was flying his Messerschmitt Bf 108 when a gaggle of geese got in his path, causing him to swerve out of the way. Robertson then miraculously flew through a barn before crashing into a combine harvester, instantly killing him.

Robertson was recently famous for his portrayl of "Uncle" Ben Parker in all three Spider-Man films, but his career spanned six decades. He was in many films that you probably have not heard of, such as Star 80 and PT 109. He is on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and won a best actor Oscar for his role in Charly.

Robertson has no living family, and is instead survived by his legions of devoted fans who mostly think he really was Uncle Ben and have been waiting for him to die for years now.

You actually had me going, despite the fact that the death you described sounds pretty violent.
