This epic 3D Avatar envisaged a groundbreaking accomplishment in visual effects. The movie was not at all scary but it proved to be a little too stimulating for one person in Taiwan. A 42-year-old man felt ill and was taken to the emergency room. He was unconscious because of a severe stroke, and he eventually died after 11 days. This person had a medical history of high blood pressure, and doctors claimed that he died because of “over-excitement from watching the movie.” Now, what was that, but that happened for real.
