A preliminary autopsy showed Cameron died from asphyxiation due to compression of the larynx. He did not suffer a fractured or broken neck.

"I assume that probably the reason that he couldn't get it off was because it hit him right in the trachea and it just immediately cut off his oxygen supply," Shaub said.

Did anybody stop to think the possibility of a suicide? No fracture or broken neck would indicate that the weight was brought down slowly or under control. I don't know how big the ball player was but 240 doesn't seem like a lot of weight. In most cases where an air supply is cut off there is still an initial struggle or reaction to get air. Has difficult as it is to balance a bar and weights it shouldn't take much to move it off of you. In any event it's a tragic thing that happened.
