Article from: The Boston Globe (Boston, MA)

Article date:

 December 19, 1991

CARY, N.C. -- Mike Sewell, a man with Down's syndrome who became famous through a McDonald's commercial profiling his family and work at the fast-food restaurant, died on Tuesday of complications from a lung infection. He was 21.

[Theonlyuberpickle]

Mike was a total bro.

[deadwarrior23]

this guy is great at putting those frys in the box, them shits looked like the ones in the commercial.

[BabbyPyro]

"my dad, he is a wonderful dude"

ohh, mike. Not a fan of McDonalds, but I am now a big fan of Mike's

[FilthProject]

Kind of sad he has a job and i don't. No offense or anything

[StanBennet]

@FilthProject I'm sure McDonalds will hire you.

[jadefalcon5]

honestly I'd love to work with this guy, anywhere really.

He's got a better attitude than the majority of our country. The guys awesome.

[jcvecere]

mike is alot smarter than the tartmuffin teens working the counter...ding fries are done...

[Spartacus217]

I'm sorry, but if he were working the counter, I'd lose my appetite.

[jandean61]

"out spoken".....RETARDED

[jardidge]

Just get him mopping the floors. I have a hard enough time getting what I ordered from the other retards working behind the counter

[Deathlordtwo]

Some people get all the chromosomes and luck.

[HAYU571018031]

[Quex01]

America, a place for special people...

[singinglawnchair]

Props to McDonalds for giving this kid a chance at being treated like a regular functioning individual, looks like he loved his job. I'd rather have people like Mike make food for me rather than some punk-ass teenager that I know is gonna stick pubes in my parfait because he hates his job.

[Wuhhhht]

"he is one cool dude" lawlz

[sark76]

dont know if this has been said yet but his last name was seawell

[jmpowers83]

[MetalEdge56]

If you mess with Chuck Norris you end up like Mike

[MrVeNoM2k10]

@MetalEdge56 lol thats true

[eggplantface]

Lol he rode to mcdonalds on the short bus

[teejaemon]

wow look at all the people looking down on people with special needs! so cool!

[terrorsquadlith]

[YTargain]

Mcdonalds: if you work there, your a retard.

[Yaesumuji]

I love all of these comments so much.

[Bobofjudia]

You know James sold Mike weed and went to strip clubs after work, THAT'S TRUE FRIENDSHIP RIGHT THERE.

[piratekiller1985]

McDonalds Uniforms changed alot.

[pika23]

it won't let me post a link. He died in 1991 from a Lung Infection. google Mike+down syndrome+Mcdonalds commercial

[Tomakak]

I like how the nigra had a 'Uh...yeah...best friends...right' look on his face. Shame Mike's dead though. He looks like the kind of person who'd accidentally give me an extra cheeseburger.

[Downzy2019]

lawl

[jandean61]

DID HE DIE ?

[kakashi744]

[HavokkG1]

"She is the Best" Comment of the century! I remember this commercial when I was in 8th grade.

[HavokkG1]

[HaloFreak12695]

mike died in 1997

[tracy80sgirl]

That news is so sad. What was his last name? I'm glad he got to make this commercial a few years before he passed away. He seemed so happy.

[caracalserval111]

@tracy80sgirl how did he pass away?

[NewStriker22]

@HaloFreak12695 , I think he died in 91 i will send link if wanted.

[singinglawnchair]

@HaloFreak12695 Actually Mike died in December 1991 of a lung infection. He was only 21. Very very sad.

[NorgelLegron]

@HaloFreak12695 he drank the oil.

[DemiLitreDuLait]

@HaloFreak12695 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! Not Mike! :(

[RCDawg85]

@HaloFreak12695 - I Googled for "Mike Sewell Down Syndrome" and found an article about him that said he died in 1991. If you Google it, it'll be the 3rd article down.

[BootyFister]

@HaloFreak12695 He actually died in 1991.

[tertommy]

Any updates on MIKE?

[theFFVIguy]

@lilbella2766 around 1995 I believe

[sugarrrsmack]

I noticed that too....that all the Mcdonalds commercials in the 80's,(except the Ronald Mcdonald ones), all were some kind of touching story, & most of them came with the same tune jingle just with different words explaining the story.
