Why did the mike von erich kill himself?
He was depressed that his head injuries from a car accident suffered a year before kept him from wrestling. Others speculate that he couldn't live up to the fans' expectations… for him to be like his brother in the ring. He killed himself on April 12, 1987 - by overdosing on sleeping pills and alcohol. You are partly right, he was depressed, but not because of head injuries from a car accident because he wasn't in one! He had his appendix removed and toxic shock syndrome settled in his arm, and was told he would not be able to wrestle again. He overdosed on sleeping pills no alcohol was involved. It was Chris who didn't think he could live up to his brothers reperations, not the fans expectations. And it was Kerry that was involved in a motorcyle wreck not Mike. (MORE)
