At only 66 years of age, apparently of natural causes.

RIP. Loved him in Police Academy (his most famous acting role of course), he was a "high"-light of my childhood.  :bluesad:

I'm almost 6-foot-7 so I could so relate to that scene in the first "Police Academy" where he rips the driver's seat out of the car so he could drive from the back seat.  :teddyr:

R.I.P. big man!

R.I.P. I remember him of course from the Police Academy films. He was often an highlight in those, especially some of the later films.
