A man who witnessed the collapse of conservative media icon Andrew Breitbart, the founder of BigGovernment.com and other sites, said he collapsed like a “sack of bricks” and died with a “thick white band” around his forehead.
The testimony comes from Christopher Lasseter, 26, who was walking his dog outside the Brentwood Restaurant and saw Breitbart leave the eatery, cross the street and fall to the ground on the opposite side of the street.
On assignment from WND, Los Angeles private investigator Paul Huebl found Lasseter Tuesday evening.
In a video provided to WND and posted on YouTube, Huebl filmed the inside of the Brentwood Restaurant, showing the bar where Breitbart was in conversation with a Los Angeles marketing executive and drank a glass of wine before leaving the restaurant to cross the street.
Standing at the site where Breitbart died, Huebl conducted a videotaped interview with Lasseter.
Lasseter reported he noticed a big thick band of blanched white skin around the top of Breitbart’s forehead, extending around the hairline to the back of Breitbart’s head, that “made me do a doubletake.”
SNIP
In response to Huebl’s question whether Breitbart said anything, Lasseter answered, “No. He was just growling, like a grumble as he passed away.”
He also noted that Breitbart expelled his last breath with a “guttural sound from the bowels of his stomach that didn’t sound good.”
Breitbart, according to Lasseter, was alone when he died.
An unidentified man called “911″ and administered CPR until the police arrived and took over; that is when Lasseter said he left.

My thoughts, too. Never heard o9f such a thing...but will take a looksee.
A thick white band across the forehead is typically a sign of extreme fear. The excitation of nerves in the skin interfere with the circulation of the surface capillaries and shut down blood flow, and the skin turns from normal light pink to very white, i.e., died of fright.
maybe it was Brucine like in the Mechanic.
so the real question is... are there any quick acting poisons that produce those symptoms
i’m fairly certain the answer is going to be ‘yes’
Increasing episodes of chest pain Prolonged pain in the upper abdomen
Shortness of breath
Sweating
Impending sense of doom
Fainting
Nausea and vomiting
I have had an "Impending sense of doom" since McCain was selected as the GOP nominee.
It'll be ok, the GOPe gave us Romney this time.
Agonal breathing is ineffective breaths that make a growling sound. Normal in death.
I am more interested in the white band.
>>Does anyone know what has happened to the materials Breitbart said he had that would damage Obama?<<
Personal opinion? They passed it off to Beck. Breitbart and Beck were good friends at one point (ACORN take down). Beck said some stupid things and Breitbart (being Da Man) denounced him and said that, “He is dead to me.”
When Breitbart died, Beck was visibly shaken on air. Not the phony tearing up shaken, but you could see that he looked green like he was going to throw up. I’ve never seen that before in him.
Now on Beck’s show, you have an actual vetting of Obama. Maybe the Breitbart people got spooked. Maybe Beck went to them or they figured that Beck has been threatened before and he was next on the list anyway, so they threw it to him.
Beck is in TX (not LA, Washington or NYC) and enough of an egomaniac to think he is untouchable. He is continuing this “vetting” on tonight’s show.
Let me tell you if you have ever seen someone die from a massive heart attack, the fear in their eyes is too much to bear.
If anything, the feeling of impending doom has become a feeling of imminent doom.
No doubt Beck has a big ego, but he also has the sense to hire bodyguards & do what they tell him to do. If Beck is taking over for Breitbart, more power to him!
How about checking out the bartender?
Good point, or maybe the "marketing executive" who last spoke to Andrew in the bar?
All I can add to this is I know Andrew liked Cabernet wine. My husband bought Andrew a drink on Saturday, February 11, 2012 in the hotel bar where CPAC was held (The Marriott Wardman Park in DC). He requested a "Cab" - cabernet red wine. Andrew hung out with CPAC attendees for a couple of hours in the huge Marriott bar - he was treated like a rock star. :-)
Other than that, I wish the source on this story was an organization other than WND... I rarely trust anything from this source.
Truth. I like Beck, don’t mind his ego as long as he is warning us as he is. I’m a GBTV subscriber for that reason.
I agree. I am really enjoying “Real News”.
I LOVED “Independence USA”, but Brian Sack has to go.
Me too! :-)
Can we ride him out of town on a NAU superhighway?
I'll even put up my own Ameros.
Netmilsmom,
Tantalizing info at that link.... I hope Beck unloads big time on 0.
for some reason that link dumps my Droid phone.....
Sorry.
Beck is not letting this slide.
