Legendary pro wrestling manager Captain Lou Albano died this morning, MTV.com is reporting.
Albano, who was sent home from the hospital earlier this week and place under hospice care, was 76 years old.
Albano is best known to non-wrestling fans as the father in Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" video. That helped kick off the Rock 'n Wrestling connection that launched the then-WWF to national prominence in the 1980s.
SON OF A.....
DAMN dude, that scared the CRAP outta me!!!!!
Ah well, thrive in Heaven Lou Albano! 
It's a shock, while there were reports that he was ill, I never though it was THIS bad, and he returned home from the hospital the day before.
Captain Lou will be missed.
Rest in peace, paesano.
Damn... that guy was awesome. He made SMB Super Show epic beyond words. 
Rest in peace, man.
You scared me that you could be talking about Charles Martinet GT.
lol for a second i thought you meant the voice actor. But this is still pretty surprising.
Sad, another 2009 Victim 
Actually, this year reminds me of the year both Mother Teresa of Calcutta and Pope John Paul II died Oo
RIP dear Cpt Lou

Yeah, seriously! Who wrote that?
I guarantee not many of the topics around the net are titled "guy from video."
None of the articles the site links mention it. This both makes me mad and kind of reassuringly makes me feel young.
