Verne Troyer the actor who played Mini-Me in the 'Austin Powers' comedies, and known for being one of the shortest men in the world, has died. Verne died Saturday, according to a statement from his family. Apparently he was on life support since being taken to the hospital earlier this month after cops got a report he was drunk and suicidal, and was treated for possible alcohol poisoning. RIP to "Mini-Me"
