Title: Darth Vader Dies

For all those currently playing Star wars online and anyone who watched and enjoyed the films will be interested or possibly moved by this. But this would spread out wider community than just the lightsabre fans as personally I was not aware he had been so involved in the Olympics or the other films mentioned.

It's odd to think how many people and how many skills can go to create one iconic character. I was aware of James Earl Jones voice and David Prowse as the man in the suit but had no idea there was a third member of the 'Darth Vader' team.

He was the nerds version of the Stig. Even before anyone knew about the concept. Pretty cool.
