Verne Troyer, AKA Mini-Me, dies at 49

[Obelisk]

Verne Troyer, best known for his role as Mini-Me in Austin Powers, passed away earlier today.

No word on the cause of death, although he was admitted to a hospital last month over health issues.

RIP, Verne. I loved your acting and your YouTube videos were fun to watch.

Just saw this on the news. Yet again someone who left too soon, it's been a really terrible week.

He will always be remembered as Mini-Me but what also sprung to mind was him being the face of bgo.com adverts.
