GM Naroditsky is dead

[mclane]

We don’t know why he took both drugs altogether.
Next day he should have played to german GM blübaum. But he played blitz online until he slept in (cocktail).


Obviously he took both amphetamine and sleeping pills together . We don’t know if it was by intention or by chance.
From watching his last online video i feel that he did it because he could not stand any longer the pressure that ex world chess champion Vladimir Kramnik put upon him calling Danya a cheater for at least 1 year.

From the official report: he died from some heart problems, there is no indication at all that this was some kind of suicide attempt.
He also took some drugs, that are not unusual to be taken by people who take them, they were not heavily overdosed.

(cocktail)

This was an unlucky term used by the media, I think by DER SPIEGEL. Just because something has been found in one container, doesn't mean that they've been put there at the same time together.

Fliegerschokolade to stay awake, some downer later. Or so.
Doesn't matter.
