Paul Karason, a man made famous after his skin turned permanently blue 15 years ago, has passed away at 62 after suffering a heart attack, according to The Christian Post.

Karason’s skin turned blue after he used colloidal silver, a liquid made by extracting silver from metal, to treat his dermatitis – a condition that causes swollen, red and itchy skin. Karason reportedly drank the silver-based remedy and rubbed it on his skin.

“The change was so gradual that I didn't perceive it and other people around me likewise," said Karason in an earlier interview. "It wasn't until a friend I hadn't seen in several months came by my parent's place to see me and he asked me, 'What did you do?’"

After turning blue, Karason led a reclusive life until appearing on the Today show in 2008.

Karason suffered from heart problems and underwent a triple bypass five years ago, according to the Christian Post. He had also recently suffered a bout of severe pneumonia and a stroke.

The use of colloidal silver in oral drugs has since been banned by the FDA, according to the National Institute of Health.

Was this as a result of the colloidal silver, or unrelated?

Anyway, sad to see him pass...

So how much silver do you think he has in him? Worth it to cremate and extract the silver?

In India they use ultra thin silver foil to decorate cakes and other foods. People eat it with the meal.

It's not just India - the edible silver cake decorations here are also made with silver.

He used impure tap water, not distilled, and was brewing his own colloidal silver. To increase the conductivity of the solution he put table salt in the solution as well. He thus ended making silver chloride solution instead of colloidal silver. The extraordinarily large silver chloride particles lodged in his skin, turning him blue. So long and short is he was an idiot. May he rest in peace.

Lol, well said. I take colloidal silver, but make sure its distilled and from a source that cares about purity. It's helped me with a sore throat a few times, and all the evidence I've seen seems to suggest it's safe.

He should've been credited with founding the Blue Man Group. A true pioneer, eh?
