"I'm afraid if I don't keep moving, they're going to catch me ... I am 81 years old and I want to see what's around the corner, and I don't see any reason in the world not to keep working. But I am starting to value my down time a great deal because I am realizing there might be other things to do that I am overlooking."

The Canadian-born star died from complications from pneumonia at a hospital near his home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, at around 5.30pm local time with his wife Barbaree and friends at his bedside on Sunday, his spokesman said. He was 84.
During a career spanning six decades, Nielsen started out as a serious actor but traded his dramatic persona for comedy after starring in the 1980 film Airplane!
The movie’s success led to him being cast as Lieutenant Frank Drebin in the television show Police Squad – a spoof of Dragnet and other crime series.
Born in Regina, Saskatchewan, the son of a Canadian mounted policeman, Nielsen served stints as an aerial gunner in the air force and as a radio disc jockey before studying acting in Toronto and then in New York City.
Born in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, Nielsen enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force and worked as a disc jockey before receiving a scholarship to Neighborhood Playhouse.
Beginning with a television role in 1948, he quickly expanded to over 50 television appearances two years later. Nielsen appeared in his first films in 1956 and began collecting roles in dramas, westerns, and romance films.
For the first 30 years of his career, he built his reputation playing authority figures such as the captain of the ill-fated cruise ship in ‘The Poseidon Adventure.’ But later generations got to know the actor primarily for his deadpan performances in comedies such as ‘Airplane!’ and ‘The Naked Gun’ trilogy, which ran from 1988 to 1994.
