    Wow, I didn't hear about this. He was pretty funny.

    I don't understand how somebody accidentally overdoses? I wonder if they are just saying that.

    Accidental overdose on painkillers can easily happen. The dude wanted to get as high as he could, doesn't mean dying was in his plans.

    Yeah but isn't there a "passes out, gets taken to the hospital to get his stomach pumped and remain alive" dose? It's not like its "take 10 pills, have a great time. take 11 pills, die"
