kmart Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Wonder why this made headlines?It is not uncommon from people dying from heart failure. Because in addition to heart failure, he'd been handcuffed; dismembered; and stuffed up a drainage pipe? (j/k) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt it is for the Sherlock Holmes of TV to determine his reason of death. They love to!So, how exactly did he die? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, nothing unusaul about a 67 year old man dying of heart failure, happens quite often, especially in Thailand. Fortunately there have been no comments about the age of his wife. She was 60, bless her. And they were probably happily married for years. Had she been 30, the thread would have been full of interesting comments. Just goes to show how age is so relevant over here.
