Not so sure about that. There's genetic differences: https://www.webmd.com/heart-disease...0050606/enlarged-hearts-more-common-in-blacks
Article doesn't imply a genetic link. It says nothing of access to medical treatment for enlarged hearts in black pop. or correlation of enlarged hearts to cardiac arrest (original claim). Don't get me wrong, I'm not against the claim, afterall there's a correlation of enlarged heart to overall mass and muscle mass so blacks being "larger or more muscular" can explain it via genetics. NBA players are huge, have tons of muscle, and are in constant cardio so can't really say genetics just because most are black: The good news is that this finding seems completely related to high blood pressure. It's possible, Drazner and colleagues suggest, that aggressive blood pressure control may be particularly helpful for blacks.

added extra context to previous post. Without seeing the breakdown of causes for cardiac arrest and those linked to "ransthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy" it means nothing.
Get hit just right and you're done. He's very lucky to have had immediate and well traning medical attention.
First, some professional sports do not require "complete physicals" prior to each competition such as Football and Basketball. In contrast, Boxing does and is more likely to catch an athlete with heart problems because a "complete physical" is required prior to each boxing match. It's in my opinion why Football and Basketball are much higher than Boxing on that list I posted earlier. In Rowing (crew)...we had complete physicals prior to each competition or regatta. Yet, team doctors for the university seemed more aware of potential of heart problems. Thus, they're looking for it whereas maybe in other sports...team doctors are not looking for it because they're trained to look for injuries. By the way, there are different reasons for acute heart failure in the general population from one ethnic group to another. Hispanic, blacks, and indigenous may be higher in one type of heart failure but the numbers do in fact change dramatically in sports. Further, some sports are commonly played by certain ethnic groups. For example, more whites have heart failure in the sport of swimming but that's because more whites are swimmers. Another example, there are more Asians in South Korea that have acute heart failure in martial arts sports than any other ethnic group. With that said, we do not know about any defects or dietary habits that the football player had prior to the acute cardiac arrest that was triggered by the hard blow to the chest. In general, all athletes on the Professional and Olympic levels have enlarged hearts than the general population regardless of race...studies have proven such. Other sports of interest are Body Building and Fitness Cross Training. Statistically, they have enlarged hearts from high-intensity training and are commonly found in Whites but that's because Whites are a dominant ethnic group in those sports. Heck, maybe at the end of the day...the guy had too many energy drinks prior to the football game. Yeah, there's been some links to heart problems (trigger arrhythmias, such as Afib and rapid heart rate) in young athletes drinking that crap prior to competition. I can't remember the sport (maybe kickboxing) but a young athlete died of cardiac arrest after a blow to his chest...about an hour after he consumed multiple energy drinks. It's so rare but it can happen. Athletes in Sports (likely to have an enlarged heart) and a blow to the chest (area of the heart) at the perfect moment the heart is in a T rhythmia...you will drop like a rock regardless of your ethnicity, skin color, country, genetics, or whatever. wrbtrader
No one gets to be the arbiter...Skip.didnt break a law...he is just.a classless.douche hack.so his comment is in line with that. Nothing will happen to him as it.should be but.people need.to.stop being surprised when a fuck like him constantly tries.to get hits or likes.
Yes, Hamlin was triple vaxxed and his heart stopped on the football field. Luckily he did not become one of Fauci's victims.
