Sam Standerwick, from Llanddulas in Conwy, north Wales, returned to his hotel following a night out with pals in Liverpool when he fell asleep and didn't wake up.

An inquest has now found that he died of heart failure - despite being a healthy young man - because of a 70% blockage in his coronary artery.

Bad genetics, or constant gear/Pro-hormone abuse for many years.
Sad...

What happens when you mix rec drugs and gear...

People just dont get it...

When I worked the door Vodka/Redbull & Jagerbombs were hitting their peak...slammming in 10-15 caffeinated drinks in a few short hours, also laced with dehydrating alcohol is playing fuck with your internals.  The amount of water alone needed just to flush the kidneys is collosal!

400mg caffeine is the 'safe limit' each can of redbull has around 80mg IIRC, not exactly rocket science.

Actually you are most likely correct. I would love to see the autopsy. To be 70% blocked at age 25 is extremely rare. Also, to say he died of heart failure is kinda dumb. Most people will not have a heart attack at 70% occlusion. Heart failure is usually something that presents itself with symptoms and is progressive over time.

This is correct.

He could have had FHC type 2 (familial hypercholesterolemia) (genetic disorder) and had never realized it. The oxidized LDL levels would have just built up over his life, deposited in his coronary arteries, and he would have never known unless he had a CTA or a coronary angiogram/plasty.
