How does OSPF withdraw the external routes when an ASBR goes down?

If the ASBR that is redistributing external routes into OSPF goes down, how do other routers know to withdraw those external routes?

what you'll learn from this video:
If a router goes down, other routers cannot prematurely age the LSAs that the now-down router was originating. So, when an ASBR goes down, the routes it was redistributing are withdrawn by other routers because they no longer have a route to the ASBR.
