Chinese Man Dies After Playing Video Games for Too Long

Zhang, a 26-year-old overweight man from China’s Liaoning Province, died last weekend after playing online video games for several hours for seven straight days.

According to a doctor, Zhang died from overwork and obesity.

It occurred during the recent Spring Festival holiday and many people did similar things.

“I am a little scared after reading the story of Zhang, because I did almost the same thing like him,” resident Wang Rui said.

“I also played games for such a long time that I could hardly find time to sleep during the holiday,” he added.

I would have expected Zhang’s weight to have kept him alive but I guess his heart just couldn’t take it.
