Of course his bank account helped but he looked much younger than 65 to me. Certainly didn’t look like someone likely to slip and fall and crack their head to the point of death.
I don't know if I want to spend time finding more of an age breakdown than these

https://injuryfacts.nsc.org/all-inju.../data-details/

Of course they support the claim that elderly people make up many of the fatal accidental head blows, but they leave plenty of room for younger people to also die that way. And outward age doesn't have much to do with internal aging.

I highly doubt it I have never seen an individual hotel room with its own emergency exit. He was probably many floors up, you think they’re going to let people climb down 25 flights of fire escape steps on their own? You think every room on his floor has a back entrance/exit with stairs? Logistically pretty hard to do. Most hotel rooms don’t even have windows that open on upper floors.

Here is a picture of the Ritz Carlton Orlando: https://d363suj4pdptk4.cloudfront.ne...e/assets/77760

No external fire exits. More than likely evacuation is via interior fire-rated stairwells accessed from the hallways.

"Bob Saget, 65, suffered fatal head injuries 'after blacking out in bathroom and bashing his head hard against marble floor, before coming round and stumbling into bed where he died,' investigators suspect" - Feb 23, 2022

"Investigators say they now believe Saget passed out in the hotel bathroom, fell and hit his head against marble floor
In the early hours of January 9, Saget regained consciousness and made his way to the bed, where he blacked out a second time and later died"

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-bed-died.html

So they are saying rather than 'slipping' on slippery floor or slippery marble, he instead blacked-out and hit his head.


If so, that precludes his family from suing the Ritz-Carlton with a lawsuit for malfeasance in having slippery bathroom tile.

Oops, looks like I'm getting pretty close to having nailed it. "Something" DID cause him to black out first BEFORE he hit his head.

Idc what the other poster "couldn't find" on VAERS. I'm literally looking at over 2,600 reports involving spontaneous brain bleeds, many of which caused falls from blacking out.

He was on two meds that could cause dizziness: clonazepam and trazodone. That was discussed earlier in the thread.

Reports are not confirmation of causation.

Dizziness is not the same as blacking out so hard you smash your head on a marble floor and end up with multiple fractures to your skull.

I imagine this was pointed out to you earlier in the thread.

Clonazepam:

https://drugabuse.com/benzodiazepine...lonazepam-use/

"There are a number of side effects of clonazepam, especially if you take it for a long period of time or at high doses. You may experience:

Vertigo or dizziness.
Syncope or fainting."

Trazodone:

https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-sup...s/drg-20061280

"Dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting may occur, especially when you get up suddenly from a lying or sitting position."

I take trazodone and sometimes I can barely walk on it. I've woke up and could not get out of bed because of my head spinning.
