You have to be in very poor health for that to be a problem and probably should be doing light workouts that your doctor approves of. I believe that a sauna and a jacuzzi would have similar physiological effects.

Where are our TOV doctors when you need them?

Interesting article, thanks! I guess it would also depend on what temperature the hot tub is set and how long a person stays in it. I'm not sure. I do not use them because a good friend got an infection from one. If I hear the word infection, I stay away!

We read the news. Don’t understand why people need to repeat it on TOTV.

Having a cardiac event?

That was my first thought too. It's not like we weren't bombarded with his death yesterday.... I doubt it was news to anyone this morning.

As for those who had such nasty things to say about him. His words, "The best thing about me, bar none, is that if an alcoholic or drug addict comes up to me and says, 'Will you help me?' I can say yes and follow up and do it," he said. "When I die, I don't want Friends to be the first thing that's mentioned. I want that to be the first thing that's mentioned, and I'm going to live the rest of my life proving that."

Maybe a heart attack?

I can tell you for a fact that he stayed in that hot tub too long. I did the same thing when I was younger at a party. I had not even started drinking yet. They rented a hot tub and no one had even got in it yet so i saw my chance to get in it before anyone else. They were all in the house so I stripped down to my trunks and climbed in. Next thing I knew I was laying on the ground with screaming and someone pushing on my chest. They told me that a girl was on the deck and noticed that I was laying on the bottom of the tub! I ended up in the ER and never even found out her the girl was that saved my life. I limit myself to 15 minutes now in any hot tub.

A man, most probably a good man, has just passed away prematurely. His fame and fortune absolutely do not matter any more. Only sympathy for him, his family and friends should matter now.
To all you snarky people out there - please refrain from your nasty posts. If you can post nicely then please don't post at all. Find another activity to fill your sorry lives.

one of the earlier reports suggested cardiac arrest

I never get into my hot tub alone. People sometimes complain I do not keep the water hot enough but better safe than sorry - or dead.

As beautiful as life is, it can be very difficult at times and just suck at other times. We all have probably gone through very hard times. I see no benefit to attacking him for poor choices. I do not know what life threw at him, and if he screwed up, he ended up paying for it.

Try and make life a bit better for those you meet.

This is a discussion page.

The news was in the title. If you were saturated with the news and not interested why did you open the post?

May I assume no one was holding a gun to your head?

It is because we are human beings who have a desire to discuss our feelings, common experiences and memories.

What I don't get is why some want to chastise other peoples discussions in which they do not find interesting.

Have you ever been to Reddit? You would have a field day there.

Having to be associated with such an awful & mindless TV show (yes, I mean Friends) for the rest of your life is enough to turn anyone into a drunken addict.
