Full House star Bob Saget's death left fans devastated when he passed away in January 2022.

The popular comedian and actor was 65 when he suffered a "blunt head trauma," which was widely reported to have caused multiple skull fractures and haemorrhaging in his brain. His autopsy left many with more questions than it did answers due to the horrific nature of his injury.

At the time, the New York Times’ Science section tweeted, “Far from a head bump that might have been shrugged off, the autopsy described an unmistakably serious set of injuries that would at the very least have probably left someone confused, brain experts said.”

Meanwhile, CNN chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, who is a neurosurgeon by trade, broke down the details of the report during a New Day segment. At the time, he shared, “I think what it reveals more than anything else is that this was not a sort of simple bump on the head.”

He also divulged how early reports about his death had suggested that Bob potentially bumped his head when getting into bed and did not realize the extent of his injury.


He said, “When you read this autopsy report, that may still be the case, but it was a very significant blow to the head." He then described how the fractures to Bob's skull stretched from the back of his head around to his right temporal bone, with additional fractures present at the front of his skull as well.

Sanjay explained, “In order to do that, when I first saw this, if I knew nothing else about what had happened, you would think that maybe this was someone who had fallen down the stairs and had several impacts to the head or been unrestrained in a car accident. I mean, it was that degree of force.”

He concluded, “Whatever happened here, I mean we may never know the exact — like how he fell or what happened, but it was a significant blow that caused that, and likely the bleeding on top of the brain … sadly, led to him becoming unconscious and then dying."

Emergency physician Dr. Megan Ranney agreed with that analysis, writing on Twitter, “This is not a ‘slip & fall’. This is not a minor concussion. This is MAJOR head trauma. My condolences to Saget’s friends & family. I hope that they get answers as to what really happened.”

She then added, “PS: this doesn’t mean it was INTENTIONAL trauma, either. But this is more than just ‘I whacked my head on the kitchen cabinet.'" The doubt continued to be cast with former AUSA-SDNY Richard Signorelli saying, “No wrongdoing found. Something doesn’t make sense given his severe head injuries.”

Washington Examiner chief political correspondent Byron York also cast doubt on the investigation into Bob's death due to the autopsy results. He wrote, “This is really odd. Makes you wonder about the thoroughness of the original investigation of the scene.”

I just listened to Kelly Rizzo's segment on the How Rude Tanneritos podcast yesterday. It's really sad that she didn't get to have much time with Bob Saget, but I'm glad that Jodie and Andrea consider her like family. I can't imagine growing up with Bob, having him be single, and then this woman suddenly comes into his life. She was very lucky to have him, and to get his dark humor.
