By not looking too close? A heart attack is a heart attack, whether caused by arterial blockage or by doing too much cocaine. If you don't look past heart attack...
Yeah, maybe that's what happened. Even an arterial blockage my have a 'deeper' cause that was self-inflicted. My father died of a stroke caused by a blood clot at age 56. A week or so after getting into a fight, and also after a lifetime of smoking and alcoholism.
If he had been famous enough for someone to demand a press release about why it happened, I suppose it still might have said 'natural causes'.
I know. I was just razzing you. I take your point, and concede that there are certainly genetic predispositions that can contribute to early death. Though assuming this is what happened to Lance is pure conjecture.
As is assuming something else is what happened.
