Earlier this year, a Ritto, Japan man was paralyzed at his retirement party when his pals tossed him into the air but missed catching him. Last month, the 60-year-old died of blood poisoning. From Reuters:
"He worked until the retirement age. We had been looking forward to going to various places as a couple and were excited that we would be able to spend a relaxing time together," (a Japanese newspaper) quoted the man's wife as saying.
"No matter what I say he won't come back, but I want to find out why this happened."
