Hey guys, thanks for the photo's.
The cause here off course is not to blame anyone, but to find out why this occurred, so that no other person would have to experience the same tragic end, thus safety recommendations.
Any blame if required, is off course secondary to the prime investigation. We as fellow aviators owe this poor soul merely that, I know my soul will haunt untill the truth surfaces, I hope the investigation is making progress into the right direction.
Condolences to all loved ones affected.

Negative ECG does not mean all is fine

Being in the field of emergency medicine, and teaching advanced cardiac life support, I'd like to point out that a negative ECG (including a stress ECG) does not rule out the possibility of a person having a cardiac condition. Mr. Erasmus may indeed have had an underlying cardiac pathology.
Sometimes persons having a heart attack have a normal ECG at first.
