I think that just happened.
Ryan Davis
Ryan Davis was a GameSpot editor and co-founder of Giant Bomb. He was solely responsible for founding batmanbatmanbatman.com and cocainemountain.com, and went by the online nickname of "Taswell." Ryan passed away on July 3, 2013. He is gone but never forgotten. We love you, Ryan.
Did Kimmel just read one of Ryan Davis' tweets?

That would be cool, but I was expecting a clip or something. Leaving us hanging man
Yeah man at least a shitty video from your phone pointed at tv or something man
@drdarkstryfe: HOLY SHIT.
@hailinel: Jimmy Kimmel does a skit where actors and sports types will read mean tweets about themselves. on his show. So millions just watched this.
What the fuck.... We need video!
Ask and ye shall receive. Classic @taswell. Just classic.
Does he realize that the person behind that Twitter account is dead? Because this just looks like it's part of a larger bit; not that he's specifically honoring Ryan Davis on live TV.
@video_game_king: Yeah, it isn't some honor. It is just an insane coincidence that a tweet Ryan made a couple years ago gets read on national television.

This is so fucking awesome. Not only was it on Kimmel, but Mark Ruffalo read it. Fantastic

They likely have no idea. Nothing about Ryan's Twitter account indicates his passing. Whoever decided to use the tweet probably just did a general search for Mark Ruffalo-related tweets and found that one among the more amusing.
This is exactly the kind of absurd thing Ryan loved. I'm guessing he's rolling on the floor in heaven tonight.
@truthtellah: First thing I thought of when I saw it.

I'm going to post the full video because if people haven't seen it they really need to. It is just the best.
