R.I.P. Kurt Thomas

[Johnny Unusual]

Kurt Thomas passed away a few days ago.  He was an Olympic athlete and the first athlete to win a Gold medal for Artistic Gymnastics World Championships.  For movie buffs, he was also the star of the ridiculous and silly cult classic Gymkata about a master of a new martial art that mixes karate and gymnastics.

Awww, don't tell me that. He wasn't the greatest actor, but he created some memorable moments with his athletic ability. Timothy Van Patten never walked up stairs on his hands or beat the hell out of a town full of mental patients from a pommel horse.
