Ong Yi Bao was found dead over his computer terminal on Wednesday
afternoon just 12 minutes after a game of Defense of the Ancients
started.
Despite not being an ardent gamer himself, the
20-year-old Singaporean fainted in front of the same computer the night
before, according to his mother. She was teaching Ong how to play
mahjong over the internet then. However, the 50-year-old mother did not
mention if medical attention was sought at that point of time.
It is said that Ong’s mother bought him the game upon the completion of his 2-year spell of his country’s military service.
In
addition, despite Ong’s medical history of asthma, his condition has
been fairly stable and was not on any medication for it.
Ong
is also a high-school dropout, but the unemployed man has had plans to
enroll in a private school to pursue a computer course.
