Suicide has always been one of the top leading causes of death in the world, health authorities say. Among countries, it belongs to the upper 20 causes of death for all ages. The number of people who kill themselves every year has reached a million, according to World Health Organization (WHO). Gary Speed, manager of the Wales national team, was no exemption: he had also ended his own life at age 42. He was famous for being a great midfielder. All his life, Speed was not known for being depressed and haven’t even filed a single Zoloft lawsuit.
Many people sighed in disbelief when they heard the news that Speed has killed himself. Nobody has expected him to take his own life. He is survived by his wife and two teenage sons. Most fans were at a loss. Speed has lived a truly remarkable life. Hayden Evans, a talent agent and close friend of the family, said that Speed has never had any problems with depression. It was around seven in the morning when Louise, wife of Speed, found her husband dangling in their garage. The reason behind the hanging of Speed was not shared to the public. The last show on which he was last seen in was in BBC1 Football Focus, which was taped just hours before he killed himself. Dan Walker, a presenter on BBC1, has said that he was in his “bubbly” mood when he was at the studio.
Gary Speed’s death has brought about tributes coming from fans all over the sporting world. Outside the house of Speed and the places where he used to play, tributes from mourning fans filled up space and piled up. They brought flowers, jerseys, scarves and other memorabilia that they have of the footballer. His death was asked to be spared from sensational press coverage.
