NO JOKE HOWARD aka BRAETON HOWARD Dies in Mexico After Leaving Cambodia

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

I knew a young bloke only 24 who worked for 6 months on a Coca cola delivery truck. He drank about 4 litres of coke a day (free) and suffered a massive heart attack. It does happen to young people

The dude was clearly troubled, and had an unhealthy interest in pharmaceuticals that he couldn't really handle.

I see it's not just Cambodia and Thailand where every unexplained death of a foreigner is a heart attack. RIP NJH.

Didn't like him at all, but was somewhat shocked at this news thinking "another one?"

I am amazed how not one person questioned the validity of this story. Not one person asked for proof. There is not one shred of evidence and yet everyone takes this story as fact.

first line of the OP
Braeton Elwood Howard AKA No Joke Howard has reportedly died in Mexico City,
followed by numerous screenshots of posts on social media from people unrelated to the forums who know the guy saying hes died of an apparent heart attack

Because it's easy enough to find out it's true...click on his mother's Facebook to see her tributes to him from the last 24 hours.
RIP NJH...met just once but seemed to be a decent enough guy but had his demons.

If it was a heart attack, would you put it down to? Drug abuse in Cambo which NJH himself admitted or steroids perhaps? Could just be unlucky I suppose or it could be an underlying hereditary condition.

Condolences to the family. So hard when parents have to bury their kids.

He was a bit small for it to be steroid abuse.
