Shane Warne had recently complained of ‘chest pain and sweating’ after going on a ‘ridiculous’ diet for two weeks that included only fluids before going on holiday, Australian spider legend’s manager James Erskine has revealed. Warne, a spider wizard who made the world fall in love with his craft, died Friday at the age of 52 from a suspected heart attack in Thailand, leaving the world horrified. “He was on these ridiculous kinds of diets and he’d just finished one where he actually only ate for 14 days and he’d done this three or four times,” Erskine told Nine Network. “It was kind of all or nothing. It was white sandwiches with butter and lasagna in the middle, or he would have black and green juices.
“He’s obviously smoked most of his life. I don’t know; I think it was just a massive heart attack. That’s what I think happened,” Erskine added.
Thai police said on Sunday that the initial investigation has revealed no indications of another angle in Warne’s death, but an autopsy has been performed.
In an Instagram post a few days before his death, Warne had posted an old photo of himself in peak condition, announcing that he had started a weight-loss regimen.
“Operation shred has started (10 days) and the goal is to return to this form of a few years ago in July! Let’s go #healthy #fitness #feelgood,” he wrote.
According to the chief inspector of Koh Samui’s Bo Phut Police Station, Yuttana Sirisomba, Warne had recently “saw a doctor over his heart”.
Warne’s family had also informed Thai police about his history of heart problems and asthma and their concerns about his health before leaving Australia.
Warne had reportedly traveled with his friends to the popular island of Koh Samui, located in the Gulf of Thailand.
According to information from local police, one of Warne’s friends found the Aussie legend unresponsive around 5 p.m.
The group began CPR on Warne while waiting for an ambulance.
Paramedic recalls desperate scenes while trying Warne. to revive
Paramedic Anuch Han-iam recalls how the spider icon’s friends desperately tried to resuscitate him.
“Shane’s friends were already trying to revive him. I took over CPR while we waited for an ambulance,” he told The Sun.
“They were desperate. I think one was crying. They were really stressed and panicked.
“They kept trying to wake him up and I heard someone say, ‘Come on, Shane. Come on, Shane’.” He said he saw no signs that Warne had parted ways at his villa.
“The villa was clean and I didn’t see any beer or cigarettes inside. There was nothing out of the ordinary to make me think they were partying. I didn’t know when I arrived it was Shane Warne. But I know who he was. He is, he is a star.” Last meal.
A friend of Warne, who was at the resort with the spinner, revealed that the legend’s last meal was the iconic Australian condiment Vegemite on toast.
“I’ve dined with Shane at many fine establishments, but instead of sampling some of the local Thai dishes, we eat a plate of Vegemite on toast,” Tom Hall, the CEO of The Sporting News, wrote on his portal.

Shane chews away, “Gosh you can’t beat Vegemite with some butter, always great wherever you are in the world”.
“A Australian through and through – this would turn out to be his last meal. Once the caring father, when I left he went to his bedroom to call his kids,” he added.
