Early reports are calling it a heroin overdose. I'll post some links as soon as I see more info.

Did anyone check the TV schedules to see if a rerun of "A Knight's Tale" might have been playing? That turd almost did me in.

Pills. Naked. Olsen Twins. I'm just saying that it's not an entirely uncool obit.
According to the New York Times, Ledger was found naked and unconscious with pills strewn all around him in an apartment owned by actress Mary-Kate Olsen. |

Waiting for the other shoe to drop, and the "I'm alive and well" response from Ledger. Holy cow...

That's a shame. I've liked most of the shows I've seen of his, ever since ROAR.

He was 28 fucking years old. That was the shocker to me. Damn fine actor, damn horrible tragedy.
The worst part of all of this is that he was 28 years old.. |

The article was revised. The apartment wasn't owned by Mary-Kate Olsen. Sad situation, though. Yech.

very sad. I just saw both A Knights Tale, and Casanova on TV. He was a good actor.
If you saw an old fella eating a twix, you would think, 'thats a bit wierd innit?' |

Very sad, I liked him a lot as an actor I thought he had a ton of potential.

Family says "accident" but that's pretty much what you'd expect out of them. The initial autopsy said inconclusive. Who knows.

have a friend who's a nurse, and he mentioned this was the second death involving those sleeping pills he had heard about recently, he seemed of the
opinion that it was likely an accidental overdose.

They corrected it and said pills were not strewn about, but a bottle of them was nearby.

So no pills strewn about. No MaryKate Olsen. This is really turning into a boring celebrity death.

Hey, did you guys hear that Heath Ledger died? I wonder if the cops have ruled out that Marine who killed his pregnant girlfriend?

So if pills weren't strewn around his corpse, the nhow exactly did he die?
If I got one look up close of one of those Olsen's I may literally be scared to death. Not to make light of his death, but I think he was a good actor. After watching the Batman previews and a few of his movies I liked him. I never watched Brokeback, his supposed greatest work, but I'll take everyone's word for it. |

Hey, did you guys hear that Heath Ledger died? I wonder if the cops have ruled out that Marine who killed his pregnant girlfriend?Ha! Naw, the Marines told them he was in MehHeeCo. So he is still on the list. Mr. Ledger made good films. Some cheesy, some outright odd. But good. He was a good actor. I think Kiaora and her nurse friend are correct. He dosed himself with the sketchy sleeping pills accidentally. Can't top Soy on this one.

I was shocked by this news. I thought he was a good actor and had great potential. Since most of the early stories describing the scene were false, I wonder if
he was really found naked. If so, why was this necessary to go public? It wasn't.

There is nothing wrong with sleeping naked.
