Man Dies After Watching ‘Avatar’

Cameron595An emergency room doctor said on Tuesday that watching Canadian director James Cameron’s “Avatar” contributed to a 42-year-old man’s death.

The Taiwanese man, who suffered from hypertension, had a stroke after watching the movie. He was unconscious when he was brought to the hospital and his brain was hemorrhaging.

“It’s like that the over-excitement from watching the movie triggered his symptoms,” the doctor told AFP.

The man died 11 days later and the China Times is calling it the first death linked to watching “Avatar.”

Somehow calling it “the first” doesn’t bode well.
