    Straining too much.

    After a sunday roast, high in salt and fat and maybe some alcohol, the resulting dump along with the time taken reading all the sunday papers on the ****ter, a perfect storm of conditions I'd say!

    I guess the strain of forcing out a truly hefty ****e is just too much strain for the heart.

    I read a story a few years ago of a really fat guy who died on the toilet due to the gases he produced on the jacks. That must've been some smelly dump to literally gas yourself.
    Pretty shítty way to go........ :pac:

    The important question to ask is 'did they actually finish the dump'.

    It would be a shame to have a dump finally defeat you.
    I've had the odd 3 flusher but thankfully always won in the end.

    I'm pretty sure Elvis was found on the floor of the bathroom. He crawled a bit I think.

    Straining to push out a stool stimulates the vagus nerve leading to a slowing of the heart. (Enhances parasympathetic tone to the heart)

    Most people evacute their bowels when they die anyway I believe.

    not just men, people want to release fluids when they have heart failure. it mightn't be the straining that causes them to have a heart attack, it could be the heart problems that cause them to go to the jacks.

    It has to do with a drop in blood pressure that can cause problems for the heart.
    Some instances of toilet-related deaths are attributed to the drop in blood pressure due to the parasympathetic nervous system during bowel movements. This effect may be magnified by existing circulatory issues. It is further possible that people succumb on the toilet to chronic constipation....

    Maybe its because when you feel unwell you either go to the toilet to vomit or whatever else or to bed for a bit of peace and quiet?
    Wouldn't fancy dying and being found with my pants around my ankles:eek:

    sad way to pop your logs :(

    How about 5 days lying dead unnoticed in a bookies' loo:
    What are the odds of that happening eh ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,898 ✭✭✭✭Ken.


    An average person spends between 63 and 82 days sitting on the toilet. Its bound to happen to a few.
