For the whole week he reportedly only left the computer for toilet breaks and to grab a few hours sleep on a bed next to it.

Pffft.!!! i did that for a year!

ontopic, I have a hunch that there's more than meets the eyes to these stories, cafine, drugs ect...it's not just a question of 48 or 78+ hours of gaming.. but as i said only a hunch....

what if you sit still for days then suddenly stand up, im no doctor but i reckon the blood pressure change could cause a heart attack.

You're meant to move every couple of hours, can't remember what happens.. Deep Vein Thrombosis?

Anyone seen this story??

Man dies after three-day gaming session - Telegraph

Seems the Chinese have a monopoly on this kind of thing as i am sure i seen a similar story a while back.

Another Chinese kid died a couple of years playing Warcraft for a couple of days. They had an online funeral in on the server for her.

In Korea a couple were charged with neglect after their young baby died whilst they played Warcraft. That one was even more stupid as they actually left the baby at home whilst they went to a Internet Cafe to play!

Wouldn't be suprised if the posts in this forum would make peoples brains melt.

I figure we're all just used to it.
