  Email to a friend



Pravda is reporting that a teenage boy in the Russian city of Ekaterinburg has suffered a stroke and died after playing computer games for 12 hours non-stop.

The boy spent the day playing at a computer club, and his mother noticed him displaying unusual behaviour when he returned home, which prompted her to call an ambulance:

The boy was hospitalized, stayed in the reanimation department for seven weeks and died. Doctors concluded that computer games launched the development of the brain pathology, which the boy was suffering from, having thus provoked stroke.
