if that guy was a pot smoker this never would have happened.
We had this with a truck driver lately, his hit count was much better:
1 bridge pier
2 trucks
13 cars
plus 5 hours road blocked

Id probably die after playing Diablo III for 40 minutes... that game sucks...
Fucking wussies. I've played poker for 48 hours straight, billiards for 48 hours straight. They just don't have the constitution.
Deep vein thrombosis. It'll kill ya.
Funny, I was going to guess an extreme lack of food, sleep deprivation, and possibly also skipping bathroom breaks.

This just happened recently at the soccer tournament thing. World Cup is it? W/e it is - guy stayed up for 2 days (just like this kid) for the soccer and died in the stand.
And for eternity, his name shall be know among gamers worldwide, albeit in verb form--changged.
Susan: Did you hear about Becky's brother?

Wow, he must be good to only die after 40hrs. When I've played I get killed like every 5 mins. [/tasteless]

He is waiting for respawn.
Clearly he was playing a hardcore character, these things happen.
Strange, I would have expected this kind of news sooner.
Haven't played this for over a week now. But these things always develop more extreme in Asia.

An 18 year-old Taiwanese man has been found dead after booking himself a room at a local internet cafe and playing Diablo III for 40 hours straight.
Identified only by his surname, Chang, the teenager reportedly didn't eat for two days, and was found by an employee on Sunday morning slumped over a table. After being woken, "he stood, took a few steps and then collapsed". Rushed to hospital, he was pronounced dead shortly after arriving.
While an autopsy is yet to be carried out, authorities suspect "that long hours in a sedentary position created cardiovascular problems", which would ultimately have led to his death.
