Online addict dies after ‘marathon’ session
Spent ‘almost all’ of seven-day holiday break playing online games

BEIJING - An obese 26-year-old man in northeastern China died after a "marathon" online gaming session over the Lunar New Year holiday, state media said on Wednesday.

The 330-pound man from Jinzhou, in Liaoning province, collapsed on Saturday, the last day of the holiday, after spending "almost all" of the seven-day break playing online games, the China Daily said, citing his parents.

Xu Yan, a local teacher, said the "dull life" during the holiday prompted many people to turn to computer games for entertainment.

"There are only two options. TV or computer. What else can I do in the holiday as all markets, KTV and cafeterias are shut down?" the paper quoted Xu as saying.

China has seen an alarming rise in the number of teenage and young adult Internet addicts in recent years, despite attempts to restrict minors from cybercafes and limit online game playing times.

About 2.6 million -- or 13 percent -- of China's 20 million Internet users under 18 are classed as addicts, state media have reported.

What the hell?

I don't understand how that shit happens.

I mean, are Americans just too fucking lazy to be addicted to the internet or what?

Wait, 330 lbs?? Somehow I'm thinking it wasn't the internet that killed him.

yeah, thats the shits, really. i mean, since theres that law against communicating with social peers, going outside, reading, jogging, riding a bike, and essentially doing anything other than sitting in front of the tv and computer, there really was no other alternative but for him to play computer games until he died
