58-year-old Dies while Mountain Biking!

You also express no human decency, compassion, or respect in such matters. He expresses none because he apparently has none. This level of callous brutality - even smugly self-satisfied glee - appears every time mikey scrounges up some news item wherein some person encounters misfortune ("hopefully" death) while within shouting distance of a mountain bike. We've seen it an obnoxiously large number of times. Along with an astounding degree of misogeny, there is actual satisfaction in the face of others' ill fortune. PH |

Face the facts! Mike, you are ignoring the root cause of his death, which is a heart attack of some form. Yes, DUE TO MOUNTAIN BIKING. Due to physical exertion. Any number of activities involve the level of physical exertion involved in mountain biking. You missed the point. Several marathons didn't kill him. MOUNTAIN BIKING did. No, you missed the point. Mountain biking did not kill him, and you really have no way of showing it was even he exertion due to mountain biking. He didn't die sipping a latte. He died mountain biking.

If so, then you also can die due to the excess fat. If not, then you also can die from a heart attack while doing your exercise. Some of your posts make you look like an idiot. That will not help your cause. Correct, or even acute mental stress just sitting at a desk can start a so called heart attack. But it didn't. He died from mountain biking. You are just afraid to admit the truth! Considering the semantic masturbation you are so keen on, I would expect you to not make such a ridiculous statement. You cannot die from mountain biking any more than you can die from walking down the street. It happens all the time! It just happened again. Ride off a cliff, and then tell me you can't die from mountain biking. You, sir, are an idiot. If you ride a bike off a cliff, you may die from breaking your neck, but not from mountain biking. So if you are shot to death, I guess the shooter had nothing to do with it! It was all the bullet's fault. Right. It's so clear how muddy your mental waters are . . seek help. === I am working on creating wildlife habitat that is off-limits to humans ("pure habitat"). Want to help?

In this instance, you have brought nothing to the discussion but a single hastily formed opinion. CONSPICUOUSLY ABSENT is YOUR assessment of why he died. OBVIOUSLY, you are afraid to ADMIT that he died from mountain biking, which he OBVIOUSLY did. No, he died of a heart attack. Idiot. Triggered by mountain biking, but NOT by running marathons. Interesting.... You don't even know it was triggered by mountain biking. All you know is that it occurred while he was mountain biking, What a coincidence! It was probably the latte he drank before mountain biking that killed him! Right. Idiot. making whatever connections you wish to draw untenable. As usual. Make all the claims you wish. In support of that opinion you must offer objective data & logically sound reasoning. You have offered neither. Seems to me this fundamental lack, along with your monomaniacle androgeny has been mentioned hundreds of times by scores of posters.

Mikey, got any FACTS about how many people have heart attacks while driving LA freeways every year? Want to guess how many hundreds of times it exceeds the same rate among mountain bikers partaking in their sport? It's obvious to you as well as me that mountain biking has a higher rate of heart attacks. Sure this doesn't address the original context of relative sport safety - if that's what your first troll was all about. But it's at least as relevant as the correlation you're inferring between mountain biking and deaths due to exertion. OK, I'm bored now. Go away.

Of course, you avoid giving an alternative explanation, because it's OBVIOUS that he dies from mountain biking. === I am working on creating wildlife habitat that is off-limits to humans ("pure habitat").
