I dont know how many of you realize this but many really famous people meet death at a very young age ranging from their 20’s to 40’s.I dont exactly know why but a constant theory that relates to this phenomenon is the stressful life of the rich and famous.They have absolutely no privacy what so ever.If a little child’s nightmare is the boogeyman,a rich and famous guy’s nightmare are the paparazzi’s.They will not stop at anything to just get a shot at celebrities and this usually obstructs the celebrities from a normal life.They cannot think of going to the mall or garden or even the cinemas without being mocked by the media.This draws an incredible amount of attention to celebrities and people know each and every thing they do.When they mess up on something,The whole world is againts them and this is something that no human being can stand.

Paparazzi’s and the media are the celebrity version of the boogeyman.

Besides that, alot of these celebrities die because of a bad life style with habits like drugs,alcohol and late nights.If a celebrity does not die of drugs or suicide,they are usually murdered mysteriously or brutally.

Here are a few celebrities who passed away at a considerably young age:

Elvis Presley:

Elvis’s cause of death was cardiac arrhythmia. While true in the strictest sense (cardiac arrhythmia basically means that the heart was beating irregularly and in this case, finally stopped), the attending physicians deliberately omitted the fact that what had apparently caused Elvis’ heart to beat irregularly and then stop was an overdose of prescription drugs. These drugs included codeine, Valium, morphine, and Demorol, to name a few.He was 42.

John Lennon:

John lennon was shot to death when he was only 40.

Jimmy Hendrix:

Jimmy hendrix actually predicted his own death five years earlier.Five years later,he drank wine, took nine Vesperax sleeping pills and then choked on his own vomit and died.He was only 28.

Bob Marley:

Bob Marley died from a malignant melanoma, a form of cancer, that was on his right toe. He could’ve avoided death with amputation, but it was against his Rastafari beliefs. The cancer spread.He was only 36.

Tupac Shakur:

Like John lennon,he was a victim of homicide at only 25.

These are only a few of many other celebrities who died tragically at very young ages.I guess god gives one and takes one away!!

Whats important is for us to live our life to the fullest and be the best person we can be while were still alive!

CHEERS!

Today i and my friends were having the usual “discussion” in class  because  teacher was absent.We usually discuss  all kinda stuff but today the topic was about a poor guy who died  not to far away from our school.A car hit him while he was walking on the pavement by the road.Yeah sounds tragic.Pavements are supposed to be a safe for pedestrians but it turned out to be fatal for this unlucky guy.

It was a Honda Civic.The driver was no where to be seen.The good thing about this whole tragedy is that the guys naphew who was actually with him walking on the pavement during his last moments escaped.The naphew schools with me.The most gruesome thing was the body of the deceased.According to my friends who saw the body,it was totally crushed neck down.When the forensics arrived and started cleaning up the scene,the body was jelly-like.The bones were’nt supportin his body anymore.They even found some portions of his flash attached to bones hanging on a drain. Imagine how bad the accident was. Another sad thing is that the deceased had just arrived in my town that morning from Johor to visit his family,and died that very evening.He also had a niece who happens to be my classmate.DAMN SAD!!

 All i know is i really dont want a painful death. No one deserves such terrible last moments.Imagine living all those years,working hard,earning respect,or even building a legacy and suddenly your dead.RUGI LA!

On Monday June 25th 2007, WWE Wrestler Chris Benoit was found dead along with his wife Nancy and their 7 year old son Daniel. Their bodies were found by authorities who entered his home on a welfare check after several missed appointments and concerns. Initial investigations later revealed that Chris Benoit murdered his wife and son before hanging himself by the chord of a weight machine in his basement. Both his wife and son died of asphyxiation. Nancy Benoit’s wrists and feet were tied and she had bruises on her back and stomach consistent with someone pressing a knee into the small of the back while pulling on a cord around the neck. It is believed that his son was killed with a chokehold as he had internal injuries to the throat area but had no other injuries.But the real question that is baffling everyone is why Benoit would all of a sudden turn into a monster. Steroids are being suspected as one of the primary reasons. It was no hidden fact that steroids were rampant in the wrestling profession during the old days. But stricter legislations more than a decade and a half ago had made it difficult for the wrestlers to obtain and abuse the usage of steroids. The WWE predictably, has strongly denied the possibility of steroid abuse stating that Chris Benoit was found clean even in his last checkup.

However, as was illustrated by the sudden demise of Eddie Guerrero (also a close friend of Chris Benoit), the ghosts of those carefree days will always continue to haunt pro-wrestling. Adding fuel to the steroid rumor is the fact that steroids (albeit legally obtained) were found at Benoit’s home. The Authorities also believes that alcohol too was consumed. Steroids are known to cause uncontrollable rage and paranoia. The state of mind that Benoit was in can be ascertained by the 5 text messages that he had sent to a co-worker; four of these stated “My physical address is 130 Green Meadow Lane, Fayetteville Georgia. 30215”. The fifth said “The dogs are in the enclosed pool area. Garage side door is open”. This certainly throws a glance at the man’s mental state.There are also reports that Benoit and his wife often used to bicker over the time spent by him in taking car of his autistic son Daniel. It is believed that this was often a constant source of tension between the couple. Nancy Benoit had filed for divorce and had even obtained a restraining order against Chris Benoit in 2003. This would therefore suggest that not everything was well in the Benoit household.

Then there is the disturbing fact that the deaths happened on three separate days. While it is reported that his wife died on Friday, his son died on Saturday. Authorities believe that Benoit may have then killed himself later Saturday evening or early Sunday morning. A Bible was found next to the both Nancy and Daniel’s body. It can therefore be speculated that he killed his wife premeditatedly and then committed the rest of the events out of sheer guilt. Maybe he initially thought of covering up the crime, as can be seen by his conversations with a co-worker on Saturday where he tells the co-worker that he overslept and therefore missed the flight for that night’s house show. He even told the co-worker that his wife and kid were suffering from food poisoning. This shows that he was capable of making up stories at the time and hence not as completely out of mind as commonly believed.Adding to the mystery of it all is an entry in wikipedia.org about the death of Nancy half a day before the police even found her body. Some one had made an entry in it stating that Benoit would be replaced by Johnny Nitro in WWE’s Vengeance show. It continued to state that this was because of the death of his wife Nancy. The IP address of the editor was traced to Stamford Connecticut, the same place where the headquarters of the WWE is located. Could it be that whoever made that post may have some information that the rest of the world does not? Could it even be that the WWE knows more than it is letting on? Only time will tell.

Tomorrow is the third anniversary of  my friends death.I was in form two when he died and we were classmates.He was the most gentle guy you can ever meet.Wasnt as rood and harsh as the others which includes me.A wonderful guy in a terrible world.Perhaps that was the reason god took away his life so early on.

He died on a friday ,the day that we had juz finished our mid year examinations.And i still remember the last few words he spoke to me….”wei,tutup zip beg la…nanti buku terjatuh!”……and i smiled and walked away not knowing thats the very last time i’ll ever talk to him….he died that very day after a lorry ran over him….such painful death for such a wonderful soul…..makes me wonder sometimes….did he really deserve it???  I was in trauma was one week….really effected me mentally….only then i realized how weak i was…One question kept on repeatin itself in my mind….”it could hav been me rite?”……i dont know y but it just kept repeatin….And the most unacceptable part for me was when my friends told me that when they visited him in the mortuary,he was actually smilin!!….spooky….
