Playboy Artist PATRICK NAGEL was 38 when invited to a televised Healthathon The topic was the dangers of sedentary lifestyles. After Patrick disputed that it was bad, he did a bunch of jumping jacks, ( to show that he WAS healthy ) and then this happened:... On the plus side, Nagel didn’t have to witness his own decline. Although the artist scorned exercise and preferred his own late-night regimen of painting, junk food and nicotine, he accepted an invitation in early 1984 to participate in a 15-minute celebrity “Aerobathan” at a local health club to raise money for the American Heart Association. By all accounts he enjoyed participating in this televised event and perhaps this encouraged him to start a new, healthier chapter of his life. Or perhaps it didn’t. We’ll never know because after the fundraiser, Nagel walked back to his car where he was later found dead of, wait for it…yes, a heart attack. He was 38 years old. 80sautopsy/2011/08/12/patricknagel/
