Okay so he stayed up for three days, right? Well, he was probably drinking some sort of energy drink. It's a medical fact that it takes 72 hours. If all you are doing is drinking energy drink after energy drink you will probably die because it causes such a massive shock on your system. I forget the medical term for it. The bottom line is that the stuff he was drinking to stay awake killed him. The fact that he was playing internet games is just being used as a "scape goat" of sorts to add emphasis on getting people away from the internet. Wake up people! It's the shit he's drinking! It happens all over the United States. People die from stupid shit all the time so what makes this any different?

Will I remember this when I stay up, oh, an extra couple hours tonight when I am sucked into World of Warcraft? Probably not. ;)
