For someone who slept in special chambers designed to renew the body and extend your life so that you would live to be 200 years this is kinda ironic.



If I were him I would sue the manufacturer of those special beds =)

    Thriller is an awesome album. There's no denying that.

    I'm sad. I know the guy became an absolute freak as he got older or may have been one all along, but he represented a time where delusional or not, we believed that people could be more than trainwrecks and we had some hope that things would work out.



    So yeah it sucks that he became the King of Jesus Juice but it also sucks that we don't think believe that this planet can be altered by a bunch of rock concerts, by this one amazing song, or by holding hands.

    I wonder what was the cause of the "heart attack". It is unlikely it was because of high cholesterol+stress since he was always very skinny. So perhaps it was drug-induced. Perhaps he had an overdose of speed or cocaine combined with a sex orgy with 10 little boys

    Skinny people can have high cholesterol. But I'm on your line of thinking. I'm guessing he was taking something that caused this. What are the odds that there will be a full autopsy?

    I heard on the news there was going to be an autopsy, for what it's worth. I also heard rumors that he was all into life extending treatments. I wonder if he was taking some experimental meds that he had a bad reaction to.

    I wasn't sure if he died in hospital of a heart attack or whether he was on the childrens' ward having a stroke.

    For me MJ will be remembered as a pretty sad and trajic figure. His dramatic facial surgery and turning himself white are pretty solid evidence of severe self-loathing. He would openly admit his abandonment issues and was seemingly unable to handle the stress and pressure of the spotlight.



    But then he seemed to lose touch with reality entirely. He said he wanted to be a child and in interviews he appeared to have the mental capacity of one. He couldn't understand that society would judge him for his actions and that his behaviour increasingly resembled that of a mad man. Whether he was guilty of child molestation or not, his clear child fetish seems to have been born out of his significant psychological problems.



    It's sad cause the guy obviously had talent but really his death in some ways is a good thing if it means the end of his (and our) suffering.

    It's also sad that people still believe he slept in a hyperbolic chamber and bleached his skin.

    No, but I do believe he slept in a hyperbaric chamber.

    Oops, yes. My mistake. However he did not sleep in that either. It was explained years ago along with his supposed skin bleaching.

    Regardless, he created some of the best pop songs around.

    While I don't believe he died polishing little boy knobs while staring at naked 9-years olds soaping each other in the bathroom, I do believe he was taking a lot of bad stuff supposedly intended to prolong, rather than shorten lifespan.

    What are you on about? He denied bleaching his skin and having any reconstructive facial surgery, which is just further evidence he was so out of touch with reality to think that others would believe him (well not so out of touch it seems...!). He seemed to do things to himself like the whitening without really considering or understanding the consequences of such actions then having to deny and make up stories. This is a very child-like and immature behaviour pattern.



    Do you care to offer an explanation of how it happened then? He certainly didn't and there is no medical condition that would cause such a whitening or he would have cited that as the cause and the world would know about it.
