    Wow, that's...pretty alarming. The fact that no one noticed he was dead is scary...

    I ride my bike everyday to school so I don't think I'm in immediate danger of a cardiac arrest but...dang.

    Hmm.
    In all honesty,when I first read this,I started laughing. Just because I am ever so bitter and twisted like that.
    But kids,this is what will appen if you spend too much time indoors on your video games and whatnot with nothing to eat but high sugar and starchy crap from that supermarket down the way.
    Like that's gonna stop us :3

    I love how the other gamers carried on though.
    Really gives me faith in humanity.

    Well, I don't think it's solely based on that.
    Remember, it mentions he had heart problems.

    It's like that with anything, really. For example, you don't vomit from taking aspirin on an empty stomach.
    If you add the fact that you're sick (which happened to me when I was a lot younger), then an empty stomach, combined with having the flu and a headache, results in that.

    I think we all experienced it before when we tuned out the world. I mean, not just playing games, but reading, writing, computer work, etc. So yeah, since their eyes were glued on the screen and they were distracted, no one would notice him dead.

    But that's just scary still... *shudders* Nine hours? Seriously? And they didn't want to get off the computer for the investigation? I say they're like mindless zombies. D:

    When I saw this I thought someone had killed him, not that he just died. Still it's pretty weird that they didn't notice that he was dead.

    Sometimes it is easier to not get involved in certain situations. In this case, the fella died, yet seemed like he could be sleeping? That's what I would have thought, however my curiosity would further self investigation and see if he moves, if his chest moves due to breathing, et cetera.

    Lesson learned guys, don't get too involved in remaining inside. (It's obviously not good for you.) Even though this gent may have had heart issues, that could have been easily resolved with what you eat. Seriously, try a pear, apple, stuff like that, it really tastes good and is also very good for you.

    My condolences to the family...
