Was bill nye arrested for meth production?

Bill Nye best known for his kid friendly television show Bill Nye the Science Guy (1993-1998) has never been arrested for the production of methamphetamine.

However, an actor did portray him in a CollegeHumor.com trailer parody of AMC’s hit show Breaking Bad. Nye assumed the role of Walter White (Bryan Cranston) who when diagnosed with advanced lung cancer decided to team up with one of his science students to make and sell crystal methamphetamine as a way to secure his family’s future before he dies. Here it is if you want to view it.

Nye’s most recent project, an online video called Creationism is Not Appropriate For Children has stirred up controversy with his message that parents should teach children about evolution of mankind rather than the belief in a divine creator.

Nye was reported dead on Twitter just days after his video went online. R.I.P. Bill Nye The Science Guy began trending, which then produced a flood of messages mourning the supposed tragedy. The rumor of his death is false.
