The incident took place in Jiangxi Province, China on July 17, 2019. After an intense soccer session, men and groups of friends headed to a nearby barbecue to find food. One of his friends said at that time, the color seemed rather strange but he had not drunk alcohol. The man ordered a cold drink and after swallowing a few hiccups, he suddenly fell to the ground and fainted. His friends started shouting for help and fortunately, there was a doctor at the kiosk. He left to start emergency treatment. However, it was too late and the man died. Netizens in China were shocked by this and concluded that it might have been caused by the man who drank cold drinks so quickly after heavy training because it was not good for the body. Meanwhile, some say that his body may overheat from his training and ice water is a "surprise" for his system, this is actually not true. A doctor has come to clarify the cause of the man's death, and said that most of the causes of death after sports activities are due to sudden heart attacks, or related to the brain or even heat stroke. In fact, he said that sudden cardiac death accounts for 80 percent of deaths that occur after intensive training. This also denied the notion of netizens related to the death of the man. However, it is important to note that you should not drink cold water after a heavy workout because it can cause you to feel very tired or experience cramps.

Instead, it is recommended to have room temperature or cold water for optimal absorption throughout the body.
