13 People Who Died Playing Video Games

Diablo III binge kills player within days of its release

Diablo III was set to be a massive game around the time of its release. When it finally graced store shelves, most players started playing immediately and didn’t stop for hours. One man in particular, a Taiwanese man known as Chuang played the dungeon crawler for 40 straight hours upon its release. He was sitting in an Internet cafe, indulging in the game, when he collapsed into his keyboard. Thankfully, an employee promptly woke him up. He stood up, took a couple steps, and then crumpled to the ground, dead.
