Troyer also starred in one of the most disturbing celebrity porns I ever saw. He was a demanding little guy, ordering the girl all around. Also the noises coming out of him were :-\ .

RIP.

sounds like suicide

his claim to fame was his height, but there's only so many mini me roles plus it can't help knowing that everybody is laughing at him

Bit of film trivia I never knew -

Mini Me was inspired by Mini Brando in the Island of Dr. Moreau -

Nelson De La Rosa from that film was also Pedro Martinez's little buddy during baseball season a few years ago.

look at him

he said on the stern show little kids point and laugh, adults probably do too

mini me was a character designed to be laughed at, and that movies series died almost 20 years ago so he can't make money and fame off of that anymore, youtube is a big step down from hollywood

he has always been laughed at in some way or another, even his porn was supposed to be a joke

guy probably just wanted to be normal, he never had that chance

Probably alcohol overdose. I wonder how many beers it takes for him to get hammered? I remember him on some reality show ten years ago or so and he was a drunk. PIP.

A medical condition that kept you only three feet tall can't be conducive to a long life.

Terribly sad, but 49 is not a bad innings. That’s 155 in dwarf years.

Sounds like he probably went out like Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf. In Hank's case, a lot of it supposedly had to do with being molested as a kid. Granted, Vern's condition was more severe, but perhaps he had other demons.

They'd only do it to mark their souls.  Probably not intentionally, though.

Anyone should know it's nature in action (his appearance).  That's all.  A person who'd think to laugh at him, without so much as knowing him, isn't worth the mind to be paid.  They're just kindling for the fire at that moment in time.  Worthless in all respects, as it would stand.

They've been tested, and they have failed.

I don't understand how people in 2018 ask other people to give them an answer to a question that they themselves can search for online within seconds, rather than having to ask someone else to reply back with an answer, which could take minutes, or never. For the most part, the person asking the question will most likely never come back to the thread anyway, so why even ask the question. I believe if it's something you really want to know, you will look for yourself, rather than having someone else do it for you. There is NO excuse for this in this day and age. It's complete and utter laziness. MASSIVE pet peeve of mine.

well considering I'm at work doing 12hr shifts and only get to use my phone for maybe 10mnts during our lunch break I wasn't gonna go searching, not then anyhow. Figured I'd ask, come back later when or if I have the time and scroll thru the thread...not that I need to justify my actions for your satisfaction.
