May saw the terrible death of Tony McFarr, a well-known Hollywood stunt duplicate for Chris Pratt. Even though his cause of death has been made public, the close-knit Hollywood stunt community is still very saddened by his passing.
Documents from the Orange County Medical Examiner in Florida that TMZ was able to get state that McFarr’s cause of death was an irregular heartbeat brought on by a problem with his heart valves. His heavy drinking probably made this heart condition worse, resulting in severe alcohol poisoning. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and alcohol poisoning were also noted as contributory factors in the medical examiner’s report.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by wheezing, coughing up mucus, and difficulty breathing. It frequently happens as a result of chronic exposure to dangerous substances, such as cigarette smoke. People who have COPD are more likely to get heart problems, lung cancer, and other illnesses.
According to McFarr’s autopsy report, he had a history of binge drinking and had a blood alcohol content (BAC) of.29 when he was examined. This is far over the permitted speed limit and can put you in a coma or perhaps kill you.
Regretfully, McFarr’s body was discovered dead in his house, having been left to rot for some time. It has been determined that his death was accidental.
