In early 2008, all moviegoers of the world were shocked by the death of Heath Ledger. The reason for the death of a twenty-eight-year-old actor, who is at the peak of fame and creative powers, seemed mysterious in the early days, moreover, pathologists could not immediately determine it.
Ledger was born in Australia, in the small town of Perth, in 1979. He grew up in an incomplete family, his parents divorced ten years after the birth of the boy, but the father of his son did not forget and did a lot to ensure that Heathcliff received male education. The desire for success manifested itself at an early age - the young man was engaged in hockey, while also carried away by acting. In both of his aspirations, Ledger felt a desire to become better and did not stop halfway. Hockey prizes coexisted on his shelf with awards for success in choreography. Learning to dance beautifully, he taught this and other guys.
The fame of the actor became the dream of Heath, and already at the age of sixteen he took a decisive step, achieving the role in the youth film "Brokeback Mountain", which brought him his first fame. But success in his native Australia was not what Ledger was striving for, he dreamed of world fame that only Hollywood could give.
Many roles were played in the USA by a young man. Success and big money - everything that others have been striving for for many years (and far from always successfully) came to him quickly and, as it seemed, easily. But a brilliant career crossed out the death of Heath Ledger. The reason for one version was identified as suicide. There were enough grounds for such an assumption. The corpse of the actor was discovered by a servant, nearby - packaging of medicines taken at a time in large doses. As further studies showed, the drugs were an unacceptable combination for the body that caused the death of Heath Ledger. The reason why he drank this fatal cocktail could also be due to the low awareness of the actor regarding their medical effects, but there is reason to believe their intentional use for the purpose of suicide.
A young, beautiful and successful actor suffered from the disorder of his personal life. The severance of relations with Michelle Williams, who gave birth to his daughter Matilda, apparently was a hard blow for him. The novels that followed this event did not fill the spiritual vacuum.
There are other possible factors that caused the death of Heath Ledger. The first reason is chronic overwork. The actor complained that he could not relax. Trying to overcome insomnia, the artist could be poisoned by accident.
There was another problem that Heath Ledger tried to solve with medication. The cause of death could be a deep depression experienced by the artist, caused by a creative crisis and personal turmoil. The film actor often showed a desire to reveal himself in all the fullness of his talent, but the roles offered to him did not give such an opportunity. This Heath was depressing and could cause indifference to life.
Be that as it may, the martyrology of stars of the first magnitude, who died due to excessive use of medicines, replenished Heath Andrew Ledger. The cause of death indicated in the official medical report is intoxication with incompatible pharmacological drugs.
