Richard Pryor, the groundbreaking comedian whose profanely personal insights into race relations and modern life made him one of Hollywood's biggest black stars, died of a heart attack Saturday. He was 65.

He will be missed!

Freebasing didn't give him MS and if he died from that he would have been gone in 1980.

He was a great comedian! Not shy about anything!! Im glad he broke grounds!

Freebasing did get him a lengthy stay in a burn unit. It's a real shame how he had to live for the last several years. He was a funny guy. And he didn't always have to be vulgar to be funny. Anyone remeber the movie he did called "The Toy" ?

Richard Pryor died during his fourth heart attack, drug use contributed to his heart troubles.

"Pryor suffered his first heart attack while high and in the middle of a threesome."

He was a great comic.
