Brazilian bodybuilding influencer Gabriel Ganley's sudden death may have been tied to a serious heart condition ... according to his death certificate.
The document lists hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as the possible cause behind Ganley’s death at just 22 years old, Brazilian outlet G1 Globo reports.
The condition causes the heart muscle to thicken ... making it harder for the heart to pump blood properly and, in some cases, leading to sudden cardiac death.
But the mystery surrounding Ganley's passing isn't fully solved just yet. G1 reports that authorities are still waiting on final forensic results before officially determining the cause of death.
