Why do you think Michael Jackson Died of a heartattack at such a young age?

A normal 50 year old man will almost never have a heart attack unless he's a guy who is overweight, smoker, heavy drinker, or heart conditions run in his family. But in Michael Jackson's case, I can assure you there is still a cause. I've been reading about his surgeries, how he used to go on crash diets to lose a lot of weight in a hurry, than his addiction to pain killers (through his trial), than about taking large quantities of antidepressants, furthermore the use of Demerol, morphine, etc. Than I read about other potential health conditions, high stress from legal and financial problems. Put it all together and yes it's very possible especially the drug use. Especially if he was injecting narcotic drugs, than it makes sense along with taking larger dosages or being on multiple drugs.

It is still a shock though because I didn't know about all these things. An icon to die that young, it's a shame!

well actually 50 isn't young for a cardiac arrest, depending on your health state it could happen even younger. But as far as MJ's case although nothing was confirmed he did look quite sick and in most cases when a cardiac arrest occurs it is usually caused by something, whether or not the health issue is known. Him going into a coma and possibly had been brain dead for a short period of time is what most likely interferred with him being able to be revived. I think it is a very sad and unfortunate event but we still have to look at his legacy and how it will live on!

He died of a CARDIAC ARREST not a heart attack, they are two different things.

As for his death, i'm thinking of two things:

- His many surgery's

- High Stress/depression

As we all know, Michael had allot of surgery done. That could of some how affected his body. And as we also know, this guy was accused of being a pedophile and was occasionally picked on by the media (and many of all of us). This some how probably got to his head and cause him to crash. I don't blame the poor guy, one can only take that amount of stress. He's in a better place though, a world where he can be free to do whatever he wants and live without hate.

Money and popularity are two of the most prominent factors for the downfall of mankind. Once someone has acquired, as in the case of Michael jackson, millions of dollars for an achievement he has made, he soon becomes overwhelmed with overconfidence in which he soon starts to believe he is invincible and immune to downfall. However, due to his conceited attitude, this man soon becomes overwhelmed by debt in which he still believes he can maintain his luxuries while simulateneously paying off his debt. That is what overall contributes to the peak and capitulation of a celebrity or popular figure.

The man was stressed out. He was in debt a few million dollars. So he probably killed him self by taking all of that medication for the littlest reasons. He already had a doctor in the house but they called the ambulance. He cudnt breathe so they had to perform cpr. The dummies did the cpr in the bed. ur supposed to be layed on a flat board. and u kno that once u start cpr u cant stop. he wuz in cardiac arrest.

Wow could you guys be any more insensitive. But I concur with everything WildFlower said, all the stress that he delt with within the past 10+ years took a toll on his health which eventually deteriorated.

I've seen what stress does to oneself for example my mother has been under tremendous amounts of stress and she is not is the best condition. But I digress.

Michael's job is done, he left his legacy with us and will live through his music. He was the most humble, generous, caring, talented and unique individual, who put others before him. He is and will forever remain the King of Pop. May you rest in peace Michael Joseph Jackson.

he actually died at 2;26 pm

10;26 london time

but yeh i think he took too many perscription drugs but he didnt have a heart attack he had something different where the heart just completely stops and fall into a coma i think its called cardiacarrest it is much worse than i heart attack because once you have it there is only a 5% chance that you will get the heart going again

He did not die of a heart attack he died from Cardiac Arrest.Unfortunately I think the people around him did not have his best interest because sources from CNN say he look frail and weak and someone should have got him to go to a doctor.

He took drugs and some other stuff i can't remember and the Dr said it was a perfect condition or a fatal heart attack. And his Dr said taking thos drugs would proove fatal, Sadly he was right. Some people think it was all the surgerys, but that is not very true.
