100 Things To Do co-author dies

Friday, 28 Aug, 2008 0

VENICE – Dave Freeman, co-author of 100 Things to Do Before You Die has died after hitting his head in a fall at his home. He was 47.

Freeman died on August 17 after the fall at his Venice home, his father, Roy Freeman, told The Los Angeles Times on Monday.

Freeman’s relatives said he visited about half the places on his list before he died.

The book’s recommendations ranged from the obvious – attending the Academy Awards and running with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain – to the more obscure – taking a voodoo pilgrimage in Haiti and “land diving” on the Island of Vanuatu, which Freeman once called “the original bungee jumping”.
