On Saturday, the Superintendent of Bo Phut Police Station on Ko Samui, Police Colonel Yuttana Sirisombat, confirmed that routine enquiries into the death of the sporting celebrity revealed that there were no suspicious circumstances linked to the incident and revealed that the star had complained of chest pains at home in Australia before his departure for Thailand where he arrived last Thursday to stay with several friends.

One of Australia’s best-loved sports heroes, 52-year-old cricketer Shane Warne died from natural causes at a luxury hotel resort on Ko Samui last Friday on the first full day of his holiday on the island and minutes after making an appointment for a massage in his room. This was confirmed by the Royal Thai Police in Bangkok on Monday following an autopsy which was carried out at Surat Thani Hospital where the sportsman’s body was transferred to on Sunday. It is understood that Mr Warne’s remains have now been handed over to Australian consular officials in Thailand for repatriation home where he will be accorded a state funeral.

 

Thai police, on Monday, released the results of an autopsy carried out on one of Australia’s top sports personalities who died on Ko Samui last Friday from what is believed to have been a massive heart attack.

Viagra and Sangsom with a massage will do that to bloke.

On other media outlets there are two photos doing the rounds purported to be from the cctv inside the villa that SW was staying.  If that was authentic, and there is no proof of that I think, it may have been just too much excitement for the poor chap.

I think we'll find there were 3.

 

Shane believed in the power of three (and in multiples of 3 , the 'lucky' so-and-so!). 3 children, 3000 Test runs, highest Test score of 99, Test hat-trick at the MCG.

 

He turned up at Uxbridge (of all places!) for a Hampshire match in Playboy pants and with 3 pretty dollies in attendance.

 

Chest pains? With 3 little spinners ('Leggie', 'Topper' and 'Flipper')? - 2 on top and going for a hat trick?

 

He'd need more than Vegemite on toast to tackle that.

 

"Unhealthy food, dangers of beer and smoking, bad liquid diet"?

 

Wherever Warnie is now (and I hope he's not where he's really going to need lip zinc!), he'll be laughing his socks off at what's been said, I suspect.

 

Thanks for all the memories, cobber. If I had a Green Baggy, I would doff it, Shane.

Hope that girl with the red patterned dress did'n't get on top of him with her weight bearing down on his chest.

What's being said here?....Look's like a (farang?) manager and his phone....I'm guessing left handed as he's holding the phone in his right hand and wearing (perhaps) a wristwatch on his right wrist....Organising transportation???

What do you mean "allowed."  Do we now all have our personal nannies who hover over us and tell us what we can and can't do?  He was an grown adult.  The man is responsible for his own health. 
If he had chest pains, did nothing about them, chose to travel, and subsequently died?  That was his choice and his responsibility. 
Not getting checked out? Foolish?  Yep.  And he paid the price.
End of story. 
For others.  If your over 50 and experience chest pains, don't wait for your nanny to tell you to go to a doctor.  Be smart.  Get it checked out ASAP.

Why has nothing been mentioned about the Covid-19 rules?

-I see no masks in the pictures above.

-As they landed after 6pm the next day is their Day 1 ("If you arrive during 18.01-00.00 Hrs, the day after is Day 1.")

https://www.visitsamui.org/samuiplus

-When did they get their negative results?

-Did the resort organise these visitors against Covid-19 restrictions? (Tailor and 4x massage staff)

- What's the timestamp on the CCTV?

I'm still curious....

Answers...

 

- Because no one is juvenile enough to be bothered about a mask when an international sporting legend has died before his time of something completely unrelated to mask-wearing.

 

- Time of arrival is irrelevant - PCR tests can be carried out quickly (I arrived at 8am - had a PCR negative result by 1:30pm - free to go anywhere, thats Test&Go). 

 

- You misunderstand the rules because you are applying obsolete Samui Plus rules to a Test & Go arrival and using ‘day counts’ for a quarantine period not a ’Test&Go where an arrival is free to go anywhere as soon as they have their result.

 

- You are digging for a problem that doesn’t exist.

 

- You are curious, or are you just looking for dirt ??? Classy !:whistling:
