Yeah computer can lead to death. I once posted about computer death. Keyboard can shock you if your hands get verrrry hot. Same goes with wearing jewerly or hot hand while putting gas into your car >.<;

this isn't surprising... especially since i've seen this a lot in one day  blink.gif .

what also makes this non-surprising is that south korea is big for lots of it's gaming. lots of popular games are played there (i.e. : Starcraft, WoW (World Of Warcraft))

there was also another incident in south korea where 2 parents were really obsessed with world of warcraft. left their 4 month old baby at home by himself while they played World Of Warcraft at an internet cafe.

he died of SIDS.

its also hitting china too. there was this one guy in china, he killed this other guy for not giving him some video game items.

it wasn't really the parents' fault that the baby died, no one knows what causes SIDS nor does anyone know how to prevent it.

it's not always an obsession, he could have been sponsored to play video games. people will sponsor you if you're really good at something so the company can get publicity.

How is someone dying of heart failure, "ROFL" and "LOL" worthy, Susan?

It's actually pretty sad.

The point remains that the parents left a 4-month-old home alone because they were too busy playing a videogame.

It's funny because he died because he was playing way too much computer games. He even quit his job just to play games. Think about it. You don't think that's stupid and funny? Forget about his death. It's his own fault for playing too much.

This is why we need a life other than going on the computer.
