47. Heath Ledger was a great actor. It's a sad day in Holywood. I had a great interview with him. He was a very kind man.

48. I was shocked when I saw that Heath was dead. He is a really good actor and I really enjoyed his movies. He had so much to live for. Now his daughter won't have her daddy. Rest in peace Heath. We will miss you.

51. What makes me mad is that they're immediately saying drugs. He could have had a heart attack or an anurism or anything. It's very sad and he will be missed.

52. I knew the media was overplaying the drug thing. I am so sorry this happened! Rest in peace Heath. To all of his family and friends I am truly sorry for your loss. I thought he was a great actor and he seemed like a genuinely nice guy.

53. Chances are this young man could just possibly have had an unknown health problem. If he indeed had pneumonia..he could have had resp. failure which led to a heart attack..he could have taken some type drug that caused his respirations to decrease even more after falling to sleep..which leads to sudden death.

56. Well that explains all the prescription bottles. I heard on CNN that recently he was having trouble sleeping, too. Poor guy, I think this was probably a tragic accident. He will be missed, he had a lot of potential.

57. I cannot believe how quick people are to make judgement on this situation. An amazing artist just passed away. We knew nothing of his real life, his feeling, his situation. There is a good chance that he was sick and he overmedicated himself. The fact for now are that his talent will be missed. He was beautiful, talented and young.... his performances have moved me and have changed me, even if for a little bit. How many people can say that they have impacted lives the way he did. Too many are too quick to judge. Let's wait for an autopsy before..and lets just give his loved ones our support and privacy!....REST IN PEACE HEATH...IN PEACE, PLEASE.

58. 37. If he did overdose on Ambien he would have experienced sleepiness, confusion, dizziness, clumsiness, severe nausea or vomiting, staggering, difficult or slow breathing , slowed heart rate, unconsciousness and eventually death.

MAYBE HE THOUGHT HE WOULD WAIT THE PNEUMONIA OUT LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE. SERIOUSLY, WHAT HEALTHY YOUNG MAN EXPECTS TO DIE FROM A "COLD?" Unless you're elderly or HIV positive, that is. Also, he probably attributed his sleepiness, confusion, dizziness, etc. to the pneumonia, I have the same, if not worse, symptoms during my period, but hopefully they won't kill me!

Also, as for him being nude ON HIS BED (not the bathroom as someone said), I sleep nude myself...or as someone else suggested, maybe he was getting ready to see the masseuse, and then again, maybe he was feverish and undressed to cool down. Whatever the reason, I just don't see this talented young man, who had so much to live for, commit suicide. He was really talented and will really be missed!

59. He hit the mother lode with both money and work. He was over it and chose to move on. END OF STORY.
