13. Randy Rhodes:
Randy Rhodes was a British guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne’s band and a good friend to Ozzy. Ozzy’s nickname for Rhodes was Whammy because he was such a klutz: knocking guitars down, tripping over wires, and other clumsily things. One day while tripping over something, he thought of the idea to develop a guitar leveler for the guitar called the whammy bar. Randy Rhodes had a tragic airplane accident in Florida where he died instantly. He was flying a small plane near his tour bus while other members were sleeping, and ended up flying into a mansion instead. Rhodes awesome guitar playing was sorely missed. Zach Wilde ended up taking over guitar duties after that.
