My co-host, Ashley Crewe, and I were told we would be introducing <a title=\"Tory Belleci\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tory_Belleci\">Tory Belleci<\/a>, and\u00a0<a title=\"Grant Imahara\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grant_Imahara\">Grant Imahar<\/a>a, from MythBusters. No big deal, we had introduced people before, piece of cake.<\/p>\n<p>We get to the venue, hours before it was to start, and get a lay of the land, and what we are supposed to do exactly. Long story short, we find out we&#8217;ll be doing more than just introducing them. We&#8217;ll be basically interviewing them live on stage in front of this big audience. We were nervous. Thankfully, Ashley knew way more about MythBusters than I did, and really saved our butt that night.<\/p>\n<p>Both, Grant and Tory, were nothing but super nice, and helpful to us on stage, and backstage, that night.<\/p>\n<p>The following morning, I got to work with them again at the Oilsands Discovery Centre. Where they did a more intimate presentation for some local kids. Again, both guys, nothing but good dudes.<\/p>\n<p>And, it was easy to see why. They were both doing something they absolutely loved, and had real passion for.<\/p>\n<p>May you Rest in Peace, Grant.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>EDIT: this event took place a short time after my eyebrows were shaved off, as part of a Canadian Cancer Society fundraiser. I was chatting with Ashley, my former co-host, she reminded me of that, haha.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Grant Imahara, an electrical engineer and roboticist who hosted the popular science show\u00a0MythBusters\u00a0and Netflix&#8217;s\u00a0White Rabbit Project, has died.
