Bruce Lee died at 32 from drinking too much water, claims study

Martial artist and actor Bruce Lee, who passed away at 32 in Hong Kong in July 1973, may have died from drinking too much water, a study suggested. An autopsy showed that he died from cerebral oedema, or brain swelling. Researchers suggest hyponatraemia caused oedema, while adding, "the kidney's inability to excrete excess water killed Bruce Lee."
