Bernie Mac – Pneumonia Complications

Bernie Mac was a popular comedian and considered as the greatest one in Hollywood. He was one of The Original Kings of Comedy next to Cedric the Entertainer, D. L. Hughley, and Steve Harvey. Mac launched his career as a successful comedian starting from stand-up comedy routines inspired by Richard Pryor as he did with many comedians. Mac was able to build his style from this.

His investment paid off when he started receiving major roles in hit movies like Friday, Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, Ocean’s Eleven, Transformers, and many more. He passed away from Sarcoidosis, which greatly damaged his lungs. He eventually died from pneumonia complications in August 2008.
