Days after legendary pro-wrestler Terry Gene Bollea, aka Hulk Hogan, passed away at his home in Clearwater, Florida, on July 24, his cause of death has been confirmed as an acute myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, according to foreign media, citing obtained medical documents.
As per the Pinellas County Forensic Science Centre, the condition occurs when blood flow to the heart muscle is suddenly blocked, causing tissue damage.
The same document also confirmed that Hogan had a history of atrial fibrillation (AFib) – a heart condition characterised by an irregular and often rapid heart rate.
