I have insulated myself from this type of destruction my entire life with no effort whatsoever.

BS. If you can die from sleep deprivation there would not be a single doctor left alive. He died of something else while staying awake too long. Only way sleep deprivation kills is if you drive your car while exhausted.

I’d turn the World Cup on if I couldn’t sleep. I’d be out within minutes.

How does one die from sleep deprivation?
Obviously, chronic lack of sleep would contribute to numerous health problems, but one event? I do not see it.

25 yr old men do not die of “sleep deprivation.”
Pills, drugs, booze, caffeine (any or all of which may have induced a heart attack) — maybe.
My money is on an “overdose” of energy-type drinks.

The worst thing is, he (almost certainly) did himself in , just to stay up to watch...... soccer.
Oy.

Yes, that’s more likely. A kid I went to school with gave himself an ulcer taking too many caffeine pills to stay awake cramming for finals. People forget there is a limit to how many stimulants the body can take.

This is Chinese communist propaganda trying to deny the link between watching soccer and getting bored to death.

You talk about sleep deprivation, I have experienced it first hand. This guy died from something else.

Shocked to hear that. I would have expected the cause of death to be boredom similar to the deaths in Kansas when people stay up for days at a time watching grass grow.

I watched about 10 minutes of Koreo vs Russia today after work at my local watering hole.
Though I was gonna die from boredom.
Its fun to watch little kids run back and forth kicking a ball. Adults...not so much
