Karl Stern’s run through the darkest moments in pop culture history continues.

In this week’s installment of the 100 darkest moments in pop culture history, I take a look back at the March 20, 1991, death of classic rock legend Eric Clapton’s four-year-old son, who died from falling out a high-rise window in New York.

From this tragedy, Clapton penned one of his most famous and award winning songs “Tears in Heaven.” 

Hear the story on this week’s DragonKing Dark.
