Teen Dies After Playing Video Game 40 Hours Straight



The 18-year-old lad is believed to have collapsed during a marathon session of Diablo 3.
He was found by workers in the internet café in Tainan, southern Taiwan.
It is believed he had not eaten for two days.
The gamer has so far only been identified by his surname, Chuang.
On the morning of July 15, an attendant entered the room and found Chuang resting on a table.  After the attendant woke him, he stood, took a few steps and then collapsed, reports said.
He was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at a local hospital.
Police were investigating the cause of death, and an autopsy was being carried out.
It has been speculated that sitting for long hours in a sedentary position created cardiovascular problems for Chuang.
