"A personal tribute to one of my heroes, Jiro Yamada, whose passing in 2025 was confirmed a few days ago."

The video has 288 views posting 3 days ago. I'm well confused. How did someone dying in 2025 only get confirmed halfway through 2026? So some digging shows[0] that he died last August, nearly a year ago. Maybe this person lived a very sheltered life and wasn't in the public eye. Maybe it says more about me that someone could be dead for nearly a year before people knew about it.
