These Celebrities Died Tragically Young

Bruce Lee, 32 Years Old

The martial arts icon died from cerebral edema after he collapsed while recording dialogue for "Enter the Dragon" in Hong Kong. He'd been prone to both seizures and headaches, but the edema was reported as fatal. Known for his longstanding martial arts and film career, his legacy is still relevant today. His wife returned to her home of Seattle, Washington, where she had his body laid to rest. His son, Brandon Lee, also died young, after suffering an injury while on the set of "The Crow."
