We're all going to give up the ghost sooner or later. That is one inevitable truth that applies to every single person, whether you're a cashier at your local 7-Eleven or the president of the United States.

However, the passings of famous people get much more scrutiny and attention than those of a regular Joe. In fact, some are so fascinating that people come up with elaborate conspiracy theories to explain their suspicious circumstances.

A few months ago, Redditor u/1kBabyOilBottles asked fellow netizens: "Which celebrity [passing] do you find suspicious?" And it turns out there are quite a few. Did the girl who accused Prince Andrew really take her own life? And what are the real circumstances of actress Natalie Wood's passing in 1981? Scroll down to see these and more stories that still live rent free in people's heads.

    "She posted in Twitter that noone believe if she committed s*****e" This is something that gets brought up a lot - but she posted that about 5 years before she died. Her death - as well as her life - was indeed tragic. And I by no means want to defend anyone involved in what made her life so tragic, but a lot can happen in 5 years when it comes to mental health.

    He was a singer during the 50's/60's.

    And no broomstick could have done that amount of damage to his body according to people that viewed his corpse.

    Also despite being checked into the hotel, all his belongings were missing. Including thousands of dollars in cash.

    Not sure what the broomstick has to do with his passing. After an inquest and investigation, the courts ruled Cooke's death to be a justifiable homicide, as he was shot through the heart by the motel manager, in self defence.

    After Ledger's death, it was revealed that his
    masseuse had called Olsen after discovering
    the actor's body. And after Olsen was informed
    about his condition, she sent private security
    people to his apartment instead of calling the
    police. Afterward, she refused to cooperate with
    DEA officials unless they granted her immunity
    from any future prosecution.

    Dorothy Kilgallen

    She was a journalist and popular 1950s and 1960s game show panelist who was skeptical of the conclusions of the Warren Commission’s investigation into JFK’s assassination. She published several articles about Jack Ruby and the trial in 1964. She continued to investigate the assassination after that point.

    She was found dead in her apartment in 1965 from alcohol and barbiturates. No one close to her stated that she had ever had a problem with d***s or alcohol.

    Interesting that she died just as Marilyn Monroe died; who also had connections to the Kennedy Administration and people believe she was taken out because of that.

    Young man playing acoustic guitar while singing into a microphone, related to celebrity passings topic. Elliott Smith. His girlfriend was in the shower and heard a scream. When she came out to see what was happening, he had a knife sticking out of his chest, so she pulled it out. Apparent s*****e. Something about that doesn't seem right to me.

    Edit: he was stabbed twice in the chest, apparently by his own hand. He had been arguing with his girlfriend before her shower.

    Yes!!! His death is so very suspicious. Extra facts: *He had just set up studio time with his producers to put out a new album and everyone who knew him stated that he was not s******l. *He was sober. *His last project was to write music for Gwen Stefani, who, suspiciously, neither paid him or credited him after his death. *There were no hesitation marks and he was stabbed twice at an angle that was highly unlikely self inflicted. *His GF at the time of his death Jennifer Chiba took the money and ran away into obscurity before he was even cremated. RIP Elliot, at least some of us know you were brutally m******d by manipulative freeloaders.

    Man wearing headphones and a black shirt speaking into a microphone during a podcast about celebrity passings. Recent one: Charlie Kirk's assassination has a lot of weird details that don't add up. Multiple decoys in the crowd, the rifle supposedly being disassembled and reassembled multiple times for no reason, and the wounds not lining up with the calibre of bullet that was supposedly used. The crime scene wasn't even cordoned off and multiple people in the crowd reportedly took things.

    But also the inconvenient details from the authorities' end? If the FBI were going to frame someone, I don't think it would be a hyper-online groyper considering the way they're trying to spin it as an excuse to crack down on the political left.

    I don't even know if we're going to get more details, since Trump's FBI is such a complete s******w.

    It was an accident in that he was wearing body armor, and when the bullet ricocheted upward that ki-lled him. They wanted to fake an assass-ination attempt to boost his popularity. The same way it boosted Taco's popularity before the election.

    Nothing about the circumstances was reported as being suspicious, but the death of Jeff Buckley - I just found it so hard to accept that someone at that point in his career when everything was taking off for him could just go swim in a river completely sober and drown and the one guy who was with him didn’t even notice it happen.

    Maybe it’s just it broke my heart and I couldn’t come to terms with it, but it’s never felt right to me.
