Exercised, ate healthily, young...dropped dead

A dad has spoken of his devastation after his gym-addict son died of heart failure in his sleep aged just 25.
Sam Standerwick had just returned to his hotel after a night out in Liverpool with friends when he fell asleep and never woke again.
A coroner’s report later revealed the seemingly healthy young man, who worked out most nights and was obsessive about his diet, had a 70% blockage in his coronary artery – something commonly seen with people with major heart disease.
His dad Adrian Standerwick, from Llanddulas in Conwy , said: “His heart just didn’t have enough power to keep going and just stopped beating in his sleep.
