Woman Dies 'In State of Arousal' While Using Sex Toy

A healthy 31-year-old British woman suffered a cardiac arrest and died while using a sex toy, local newspaper the Wilts and Gloucestershire Standard reported Thursday.

Nicola Paginton was found dead by friends at her home in Cirencester in southwestern England in October last year.

Police investigating the death also found a vibrator and a laptop computer with pornographic images lying nearby.

Pathologist Dr. Richard Jones could find no abnormalities in her organs and her friends said she seemed "fit and well" the day before her death.

"There is nothing in the heart which I can find to explain why Nicola died suddenly," Jones said.

"But I suspect it does represent a sudden cardiac arrest ... In Nicola’s case there is another potential trigger and that is an increase in heart rate or blood pressure because of physical and emotional arousal."

Gloucestershire coroner Alan Crickmore recorded a verdict of natural causes.

"More likely than not this occurred from being in a state of arousal," he said.

Yikes! And all I can say is that I'd be pretty damn pissed off if the news reported my death by giving out these details.

You know there's a portion of our population that will condemn sex toys as the cause of death. LOL

Yeah, but there's a portion of our population that already condemns them for a myriad of other reasons, legitimate to themselves I'm sure but quite silly to me

You know, I think most people have a small fear of dying in the middle of masturbation. While my most prominent thought is that it would be embarrassing, then I remember I'd be dead and wouldn't know anyway. heh I think my family would initially be mortified and then they'd probably crack jokes. It's how we roll.

the embrassing part isn't wat i'm afraid of I think the whole someone dying because they aroused but otherwhise healthy/sex toy needs to be investigated more and the toy she used should be investigated.

I'm just afraid of dying in general. Now I just wonder what sex toys can do over time if I can get cardiac arrest or somethin and have health problems its weird and scary to think that.

I don't think it had anything to do with the sex toy in itself, and I wouldn't be afraid of using one. People can appear healthy when they're actually not. My best friend died of cardiac arrest when she was 18 and otherwise healthy and all she was doing was studying for an exam. Things happen sometimes that are hard to explain.

Ok, I feel sorry for her and more so for her family and the following is in poor taste I know..but..that would be a real case of her coming as she was going. Sorry if I offend anyone, not my intention, just my warped sense of humor.

I'd hate to go during the middle. Afterward...much better!

I heard about this this morning on a radio show.

My first reaction was feeling bad for her family, as the press really sensationalized this story and gave out too many details, in my opinion. Geez

Yeahhh I'm pretty sure what I am doing at the time of my death better be on a "need to know basis", not news for everyone to hear.

I completely agree with you. On the other hand I can see how it may help some people with health issues to be more 'aware', Even though she was noted to be healthy..

At the risk of sounding morbid:

Remember how James Dean's car is supposed to be haunted? The Winchester Mansion? Lizzie Borden's house?

Do you think the dildo/vibrator will become haunted?

(There are ghost stories on the Travel Channel now)

I can only see it being helpful really if they have made the connection between the sex toy and the reason she died. Otherwise it's just coincidence and will cause people to fear that sex toys can kill them.

I think it's disgusting that they published the article with all that info. It's as if they were going out of their way to be disrespectful toward her (yeah I know, she's gone, but still...) and her family. Particularly since she died "in October last year" and they waited months to air her laundry that way.
