Man Dies After Watching Avatar

Man starts to feel unwell during movie
Dies 11 days later
"First death linked to Avatar"
A 42-year-old Taiwanese man with a history of high blood pressure has died of a stroke likely triggered by over-excitement from watching the blockbuster Avatar in 3D, a doctor says.

The man, identified only by his surname Kuo, started to feel unwell during the screening earlier this month in the northern city of Hsinchu and was taken to hospital.

Mr Kuo, who suffered from hypertension, was unconscious when he arrived at the Nan Men General Hospital and a scan showed that his brain was haemorrhaging, emergency room doctor Peng Chin-chih said today.

"It's likely that the over-excitement from watching the movie triggered his symptoms,'' the doctor said.

Mr Kuo died 11 days later from the brain haemorrhage, and the China Times newspaper said it was the first death linked to watching James Cameron's science-fiction epic Avatar.

Film blogging sites have reported complaints of headaches, dizziness, nausea and blurry eyesight from viewers of Avatar and other movies rich in 3D imagery.

I guess it is that good...

Edit: And thanks to Luinil for finding the article

Yeah well Avatar got censored in China anyway.

I wouldn't say it was THAT good. 0.o

That is sort of strange. Is there really parts that got him that excited. Maybe this was caused by something else that happened after the movie? Or maybe I really have to see this. lol
