" We extend our sympathies to the family and fans of infomercial superstar Billy Mays, who passed away in his sleep. He was only 50 years old. To celebrate his life&amp;#039;s work as a pitchman, here are five of our favorite As Seen on TV products, brought full-throated to the world by this unforgettable talent.  1. Hercules Hook   Billy called the Hercules Hook &amp;quot;super strong,&amp;quot; and it truly was a stellar hollow-wall anchor by any comparison. We hooked a heavy painting and a sack of hardback books from a single Herc. The only reason we couldn&amp;#039;t hang a lawnmower by a bootlace was because the drywall itself failed.

Mighty Putty   Although the product is a basic two-part plumber&amp;#039;s epoxy, Billy&amp;#039;s demonstrative truck-hauling test elevated the product to the upper echelons of adhesives. We tried to hoist a concrete block with a chain linked by Mighty Putty, but we found it to be stronger at fixing leaks and fabricating mug handles. Click here for the full review. 3. Zorbeez   Inspired by Billy&amp;#039;s on-air rap and convincing stance against the rival Shamwow, we tested the Zorbeez rag-to-rag on some scientifically spilled beer.
