The man behind the “Theme Song of Shaft” was found dead at his home on Sunday morning. Isaac Hayes, who is an Oscar, and Grammy winner was found by his family lying in his basement next to a treadmill that was still running. According to the hospital where he was pronounced dead, Hayes seemed to have died from natural causes. However, the fact that they found his body lying next to a running treadmill may be proof that exhaustion might have resulted in fatal complications due to exercise. Isaac Hayes was a respected musician and actor including roles in movies like hustle and flow, and the voice of Chef on South Park. He will be greatly missed.
