Intense sports, sudden death
Just 3 days ago, Malaysia was shocked by another sudden death during exercise.
Popular footballer-turned-pundit Serbegeth ‘Shebby’ Singh passed away while cycling in Sunway Iskandar, Iskandar Puteri.
61-year-old Shebby had collapsed, falling off his bike, believed to be due to a heart attack. This came as a shock to his friends and family as he is known to follow and healthy lifestyle and exercises regularly.
The former sports personality was pronounced dead at the scene as well.
yet another death by “sudden”
They aren't collapsing....they're planking.

Looks like the people in the next court over are going ahead and playing their badminton. Must be hard to get an open court.
Could have been a rogue virus from those shuttlecock
feathers. One company that I had an investment in
once was trying for an artificial wing material
to avoid the avian plague transmission/association.
It’s sadly, coming to the point where someone in the prime of life dropping dead for no apparent reason is not going to be a shock, rather a *Oh, that’s right. He was vaxxed.* moment.
Siwwy human, badminton is deadly.
Very rare /s
Could we please see Fauci’s covid passport please?
Just want to make sure he’s all boostered up.
Hmmm, maybe Jim Fixx had an early prototype Covid shot? The Covid shot is apparently the only reason anyone drops dead anymore.
🤔 Died suddenly 🤔
Handling shuttlecocks can be very stressful.
you mean the shots which failed the FDA’s animal testing when all the animals just keeled over dead... are now making people keel over dead??
who would’ve thunk it?!
personally, i follow the science. you know... the bit that applies logic to test results.
Nuremberg justice now!
Has anyone’s cause of death been identified as such?
Interesting, isn’t it, that it’s the healthiest are the ones dropping?
The ones most likely to have the stamina and strength to fight back the most.
The 52 year old referee at our HS basketball game who dropped dead of a massive heart attack in 1977 well the rumor was he came back from Asia not feeling well with a strange flu and a young Dr. Fauci gave him a early form of the vaccine
