Man Dies of Stroke After Watching Avatar
TAIWAN -- A man with a history of high blood pressure died of a stroke after watching the 3D blockbuster Avatar.

The 42-year-old man, who suffered from hypertension, was rushed to the hospital after he began feeling ill during the screening of the movie.

The man identified only as Kuo was unconscious when he got to Nan Men General Hospital where a scan showed that his brain was hemorrhaging, Dr. Peng Chin-Chih, an emergency room doctor, told AFP.

An emergency room doctor says the stroke was likely triggered from over-excitement while watching the 3D blockbuster Avatar, AFP reports.

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

Kuo died 11 days later from the brain hemorrhage.

Fake story, regardless of source.

No ER doc would ever make a ridiculous claim like that
