61. i think it boils down to this. I use to do 11000 mile roundtrip london to los angeles flights once every 3 weeks. it takes a HUGE toll on your body. this poor talented guy. was in perth australia wednesday night. then took that long flight back to london...went straight to a movie set. was photographed as late as saturday night filming....then took another flight back to new york. that is a heavy flight load and work load. crossing so many times zones, hemispheres with pnuemonia... poor man.

63. It is VERY EASY to overdose when you are already sick with pneumonia. I had pneumonia-twenty years ago-and I was near death-taking liquid codeine and hallucinating with a 104 degree temperature. He probably just wanted to get some solid sleep and accidentally overdosed. It happens....tragically. So sad. He was a supreme talent. God Bless to all of his family members. I'm sure they are riveted.

65. HEY . GAINGATOR, What the F*%K do you mean by precursor to aids. Heath does not have aids, I can't believe you would even imply something so ludicrous. As for those people saying he was found naked and on the toilet?? Where are you getting this rubbish from? There have been no reports about him being naked or in the toilet.
Do not trivialise his death, with rubbis like that. It is a huge loss not just to all of Heaths fans but to his family as he is a very much loved son, father, brother and partner.
To Heaths family we all love him and he will be sorely missed. My heart aches for his little girl. I love Heath and all his movies. Rest In Peace Heath. We miss you. XX OO

72. This was a shock to me. I have never seen such talent in a person in a long time. And the fact that he stayed out of the spotlight as much as possible made him even more special. Not like the Brit Generation.

73. Pneumonia would mean that he was prescribed narcotic cough medicine, mixed with sleeping pills and an already compromised respiratory system equals a horrible, tragic accident. RIP

74. #71...right. And if you consider that most pneumonia patients are prescribed narcotic cough syrup...very sad.
