Passengers on a flight to Salt Lake City were stunned on Sunday when a man on the plane suddenly died.

The man, believed to be in his 30's, has not been publicly identified yet. Passengers say he was snoring loudly for a while before the plane landed and then suddenly was quiet.

?You could tell something was wrong. I asked, ?Hey, sir, are you awake?? ? passenger Jared Noall said. ?I shook him a bit, trying to see if I could get a response out of him. We checked his throat for a pulse, and it wasn?t there, so we laid him down in the aisle and started CPR.?

Noall and two others on board attempted CPR for more than thirty minutes, but to no avail. Passengers were visibly distraught as they left the plane to go on to their destinations, say officials. An investigation is ongoing.

?They tried their very best; the family of the deceased man would be glad to know he did everything possible to revive him.? said fellow passenger Kevin MacIsaac. ?It was sad to see the flight attendant remove his bag from the overhead rack ? what shocking news for his family.?

I wonder how overweight he was.

I get the jab, but this can happen to anyone. I've had a few of my friends pass away despite being healthy, and a colleague at work used to work with someone that was an exercise junky. Always running and being proactive. He keeled over from a heart attack in his 30's...

Sometimes things just happen.

He was probably doing steroids or "performance enhancers".

You do know what they say about people who "assume' yes?

A mate of mine died from a massive heart attack, he was only 39. Was very fit and a "very clean living lad".

Proved to me that it's not necessarily how you look after yourself as to how susceptible you are to health failure.

What you don't know or fail to realize, is that A LOT of "very fit" and "very clean" living people take performance enhancers which can include steroids. These are marketed and sold in nutrition shops which is why they are seen as "clean". Overuse or incorrect use of these enhancers can and do lead to fatal heart attacks.

I work out and lead a fit and clean lifestyle. I researched a lot of these things people tend to take and what's good and what's bad. Not to say he might not be prone to heart attacks, but a lot of people rely on these and it's very easy to overdo it.

Do you have proof of that?

I can tell you that is not the case at any time, would you call me out and ask for proof?

I also hope you realise that not everyone fits into your idea of what 'clean living' actually means.

Your assumptions are starting to make my head hurt. You just jumped straight in and told Intrinsica that his friend probably had been taking steriods for that to have happened.

No proof, just you making an assumption.

Then you reply to me that it was probably the same for my mate. Unbelievable!!

    • For a guy who claims to hate Farage and the ignorant, gullible, rightwing racist skinheads sponsored by Putin that his lies represent, you sure are quoting them time and time and time again, mate. I guess you're conveniently ignoring the fact that your country and commonwealth just happened to work much better when it was still part of the E.U.? Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.
    • Do you live in the U.K? Do any of the people here that are against the UK leaving the E.U, live in the U.K? If not then why are you bothered? If you do live here then it is a different thing . Brexit was a good idea, should have done it years before, it was done badly, but the idea was good. You are saying the same thing as remainers do, oh we did what Putin wanted, we listened to the lies and Farage. I hate Farage and never believed most of what he said, certainly did not believe the £350m a week for the NHS. But we did pay a lot of money to the E.U and yes some of it came back, but what is the point of paying it out for only some of it to come back? Get out of the E.U, no money to them and in theory we can use the money to do things in the country. I said in theory, but our governments are a total and complete waste of space. No matter what colour rosette they wear. You and others say it was a mistake and yet the two main parties in the U.K are not looking at rejoining the EU, I wonder why that is? I was not tricked by anyone. Makes no odds now, we are out and have been for 10 years, what we need is a decent government to run the country. All they do is shout at each other like a load of kids and seems to do nothing and make this country more into a police and nanny state. Getting more like China all the time.

    • Yeah... The root of my comment, ostensibly, is how to spin the story via the actual technical merits of the solution! * Decentralized (aka federated) solution with built-in encrypted ephemeral message transport, * Transport via Relays (intermediary servers) with no message archival, * Second configurable pathway are actual email servers (if DNS records are programmed accordingly) via IMAP protocols carriage, * "Chat-over-Email" is the design pattern adopted; it can either leverage full-blown Email Server (must use the INBOX folder) to exchange all received messages/edits/reactions (so be weary of notifications overloads) [best practice is creating a separate email acct used explicitly for federated chat purposes!] or leverage its built-in Relay Server mechanism which actually resides on-device (by default but can be configured otherwise), * By virtue of be a decentralized/federated model, all other intermediary servers who may pass-along messages (while the recipient's final relay/device is inaccessible) cannot snoop on the messages due to the encrypted nature of contents. The intermediaries may, however, analyze the metadata due to the simple fact that routing mechanisms require hints for relay destinations. Unfortunately, whomever is posting about DeltaChat across socials are misleading with "zero metadata" claims -- especially when the Relays (according to their own technical documents) mandate the addition of chat-version metadata and other decorations in order to actually transport any message. -- Based on this summary, I'd prefer if they'd better dual-path message transport (email server add-in, federated relay engine) rather than patch-on email protocols to existing federated social media frameworks. They're frankensteining something rather than extending widely-deployed technology stacks.
