Moderately humorous but otherwise meh. At least we can rest knowing it wasn't a drug overdose, I guess?

Also, not advisable to make a post with only a link and the word 'Discuss'. More to the post is generally a good idea.

...Why the hell is this being reported NOW, decades after his death? Were they just sat scratching their arses going "derp" all this time?

DELETED

Who cares its been decades, way to spend resources guys.

And not suprising he had a shit diet and they found him slumped over a toilet did no one check the bowl afterwards or what?

 

[EeveeElectro]

I've heard this before.
I... don't really know what to say.

I wonder if I would have liked him if i was around back then.

 

[The Rockerfly]

Don't like his music, was a weird and miserable person towards the end. Finally it was decades ago, WTF do you care now?

 

[SnootyEnglishman]

It makes since considering he died while on toilet. Perhaps he had to take one last big king-like shit and it was to awesome.

I'm just going to chalk this up on my list for worst ways to die. Right now it's just under "Getting hammered in the ass until dead" (cookie if you get the reference)

 

[dmase]

i remember the joke going around in elementary school. He died on the toilet choking on a chicken bone.

 

[Eliam_Dar]

I don't really see the point of knowing this know, I mean, he is already dead...

 

[Amethyst Wind]

This is news? Haven't we known this since his autopsy almost 30 years ago?

Obviously you've never seen Bubba Ho-Tep.

Go on, you have my interest

 

[mad825]

so I guess he died trying to squeeze one out?

 

[ProfessorLayton]

Go on, you have my interest

You have to see the movie... Impossible to describe.

 

[Marter]

Wow, 4-5 month old stool in his colon. It sucks going a few days without having a bowel movement, I can't imagine not going for months.

That looks... Interesting. If I find a copy on DVD I shall watch that because it looks kind of mad

Old news, this has been documented for years. His heart gave out because of the straining due to chronic constipation. During the autopsy, Elvis' bowels were opened up and some of his stools were the consistency of concrete. It's the drugs that did it, combined with his addiction to stomach-churningly bad junk food, such as fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches...
