Stormtrooper who bonked head in original Star Wars movie has died

While Princess Leia snarked that Luke was too short to be a Stormtrooper, this guy had the opposite problem.

Michael Leader, the British actor believed to have played the Stormtrooper who famously clonks his helmet on a low-clearance entrance in the original 1977 "Star Wars: A New Hope," died on Monday, the BBC reported. His age was not given.

Fans of British soap "EastEnders" knew him as Michael the milkman, and he'd been on the show since its first episode back in 1985.
