    Man dies of suspected heart attack at velodrome
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...velodrome.html


    Not sure if this has been posted before and it's Daily Mail but oh well.


    At least he died doing something he'd always wanted to do; I don't know why I feel so sad after reading this apart from the fact that he seems like he was a geniuenly nice person.

    There must have been something wrong with him, for 49, he looks to be in his late 60's early 70's.

    This is really sad

    Can we cut the arguing out please? This isn't the place to be debating over the Daily Mail.

    The only thing I don't understand is, did he recieve any medical attention at the scene? Surely people don't just die instantly and the heart can be restarted, etc (Although I don't know that much about this).
