Why: On Pandora:
I didn't know he was dead. I also have no idea what he looked like.

Answer: Weight-related respiratory illness :(
Throughout the later part of his life, Kamakawiwoʻole was obese and at one point carried 757 pounds on his 6-foot-2-inch frame. He endured several hospitalizations because of problems caused by his weight. At age 38, he died of weight-related respiratory illness at The Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu on June 26, 1997.

The More You Know: I always pictured him as a little old man, like Mr. Littlejeans or that guy that played the new Oompa Loompa. Boy, was I wrong.
