Paul Karason, who shot to fame for the shocking color of his skin, has died.
Karason, 62, died Monday at a Washington hospital. The cause of death is not yet known, but he had recently suffered a heart attack and a stroke after a bout of pneumonia, his estranged wife told TODAY.
His skin had turned its deep hue after he used colloidal silver to treat a skin disorder. He later said he never would have used the compound if he knew about this startling side effect, Morning Rush reported in the video clip above.
He faced a number of health problems, including prostate cancer, but said he was optimistic that his skin was beginning to lighten in a second TODAY interview in 2009.
