Janet Kornowski, a world record holder on various dance video games died of congestive heart failure in Portland Oregon this past Monday.
The exergamer was known for a variety of accomplishments achieved on Dance Dance Revolution, Just Dance, and several other rhythm games was found dead in her kitchen by family members. Paramedics responding to the 911 call could not revive her.
Kornowski was an inspiration for thousands of overweight gamers who found inspiration in her 90 pound weight loss and persistent uni-brow that she refused to shave. As the popularity of rhythm games waned Kornowski was constantly keeping the media and her fan base engaged by hosting events where she’d play a dance game up to three days straight.
