More MJ Autopsy Results

Posted by on Tue, Feb 9, 2010 at 4:45 PM

Sad and macabre: his body was 69 inches long, he had a small pink tattoo near his lips, he had vitiligo, he was wigged.

69 inches = 5'9". Why is that noteworthy?

Perhaps not, Matt…but I just ran his BMI on his height and weight (136 lbs.) BMI = 20.1. Which puts him smack dab in the middle of "Normal." Wow. Is that right?

He weighed less than I do, and I'm just a half-inch taller.
I don't suppose his exercise regimen and diet wer rush-published posthumously?

#2, you're right if MJ were 17 years old. He was 50 years old, however, and this chart suggests a BMI of 20.1 is possessed by between 5th and 10th percentile of men.

Vitiligo. Just looked it up.

So I guess he bleached his skin so it wouldn't look uneven?

Wow, I'm amazed the vitiligo was real. I always assumed it was a cover story. Now I feel like an untrusting asshole.

@6 Keister…that's my point, but the BMI charts say that his weight is "Normal" for a 50 year-old man. No matter that it's in the 5th to 10th percentile.

Please, dear god, let someone leak autopsy photos of his nose, so we can finally know what the hell was really up with that.
