I was just looking for this to be posted. Supposedly died in his sleep but that’s hard to believe at such a young age. Autopsy will be done today so we’ll know more soon unlike the months of cover up on the Waco bikers’ results.

For 1/3rd of all heart attack victims their first symptom is sudden death.

Had my first one at age 45, major damage, only survived because I was still in military and was strong and fit. Was told only about half of men who have heart attacks at an early age survive, mostly because they are asymptomatic and don’t get regular cardiac evaluations.

There were I believe, 5 middle aged men who died at Sturgis, from apparent natural causes. Time will tell of course, but the Black Hills can be extremely hot. There is often not much in the way of humidity. It can pour rain and a hour later everything is dry as dry can be.

People generally do not realize how dehydrated they can become. Most especially if they are guzzling beer in the hot sun.

Altitude, the Hills range in altitude from 2,000 to 4,000 feet and of course there are places that are over 7000 feet high. Rapid City is at 3250 feet and Sturgis is at 3422. Generally not high enough to have altitude sickness, but it can cause problems with physical exertion. Harder to breathe etc.

With the five reported deaths it sounds as if some combination of these factors along with pre-existing heart problems, will likely be the cause of death.
