Could be aortic aneurism, disturbingly too frequent.  If you're over 65 get yourself the free NHS check.

Very sad loss  cry:   Hated that Lily Savage act of his early days but it turned out he was actually a very clever comedian and by all accounts a very decent bloke.

What a shame... I was only six but remember it like it was yesterday...  cry:
I was a bit older (12) but still find that whole horrible day stunning and not a little piss boiling.  I'd like to think that I'd be like that guy and stay in the room to help the kids get out first but faced with that advancing wall of slag I suspect for me other options of just freezing/shit myself or scarpering first might have been possibilities.  Hopefully I never ever find out.
Well, whatever, nevermind
