70, 000 or more people at a party that lasts several days & only one guy dies of an overdose.
God speed brother, I hope you had the time of your life.

Heard it was electrocution from a submersed power cord!! I sure wish someone would report the truth so we can all know

[steveheath]

Drug overdose? At Burning Man? Impossible.

Where was the dude with the dreadlocks and narcan?!

[motomanic]

Dude thought he would time travel back to the 60's.

For once, Burning man had a unique opportunity to actually burn a man. I mean, he’s dead anyway. Maybe next year they can call it “Burning influencer” and hope for another miracle.

I thought that place is a drug free zone. Unbelievable

Anybody notice how old the attendees are these days? That show must reek of Ben-Gay. Along with a few other things....
