Grant Wahl, the American soccer reporter who collapsed and died while covering the World Cup, died of an aortic aneurysm that ruptured, his wife has announced
“It’s just one of these things that had been likely brewing for years, and for whatever reason it happened at this point in time,” Gounder said on “CBS Mornings.” In a longer statement, Gounder said an autopsy performed by the New York City Medical Examiner’s Office determined he died from a “slowly growing, undetected ascending aortic aneurysm with hemopericardium. “The chest pressure he experienced shortly before his death may have represented the initial symptoms.
Feeling pretty hairy, bad,” he told co-host Chris Wittyngham in an episode of the podcast Futbol with Grant Wahl published days before his death. He added that he sought help at the clinic at the World Cup media center, believing he had bronchitis. He further described the incident in a newsletter published on December 5, writing that his body “broke down” after he had little sleep, high stress and a heavy workload.
