In reply to the discussion: Man Dies During Threesome, Family Wins $3M for Medical Malpractice [View all]kag
(4,079 posts)6. This "story" wouldn't exist were it not for the "threesome".
This story could have said that the man dressed up like a duck and did jumping jacks on his neighbor's roof all night to trigger the heart attack, and it wouldn't have made the papers. But some editor gets the chance to put the word "threesome" into the headline, and it's suddenly big news.
Seriously, a guy has a heart attack during sex and then wins a medical malpractice suit...and it makes the papers? Only because of the number of people in the room (or I guess--in the bed) when it happened.
Hell, I bet most guys who read this probably couldn't even tell you what the story was about..."Uh...some...something...happened to some guy...uh...when he was having sex with TWO chicks!" "Really?! Right on!"

OP
I'll "defend" this award by saying there isn't enough information in this article ...

Read the entire case, did you? Can you point us to where we can see it so we can be so cock sure?

40% responsible for his own death? More proof that Americans can't do math.

If you're going to go, that's not a bad way! Not sure about the malpractice thing.
