SHENYANG: An obese young man from Northeast China's Liaoning Province has died after a marathon video games session.
The 26-year-old man, surnamed Zhang from Jinzhou, collapsed on February 24, the last day of the week-long Spring Festival holiday, after hours of non-stop online gaming.
A doctor from the Liaoning Medical College blamed "overwork and obesity" as the cause of Zhang's death.
