Um...it's speculated that this caused his heart to go into fibrilization, but I don't think that's been released as definite. Sometimes it seems to happen out of the blue to those who never suspected they had heart problems.
I think Damar was lucky that he was close to paramedics when it happened.

Yes.
It turns out that he's the second NFL player to have cardiac arrest during a game. The first was Chuck Hughes in 1971. He was pronounced dead at the hospital, but may have died on the field.

My "good, conservative Christian" family members sent me a meme today that implies that he had to have collapsed due to the COVID shot.

Because they're objectively terrible, horrible people...
So you come here to be surrounded by more conservative Christians.

I really wonder how popular sports would be without betting.
That would explain why I'm not really into it, since I don't gamble.

(which probably has a lot to do with having lived in Las Vegas for half my life).

Why do athletes have cardiac arrest?

Sudden cardiac arrest in young athletes is usually caused by a structural or electrical abnormality of the heart. Most of these abnormalities are inherited, but remain undiagnosed and may be unknown to the athlete. Exercise can be a trigger for sudden cardiac arrest in individuals with an abnormal heart condition.

24-year-old Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin made his first public comments Saturday since suffering an on-field cardiac arrest during a football game Monday night against the Cincinnati Bengals. Hamlin tweeted that "the love is felt, & extremely real," while expressing gratitude for the widespread support he has received during his hospitalization and recovery.

"Putting love into the world comes back 3xs as much...thankful for everyone who has reached out and prayed. This will make me stronger on the road to recovery, keep praying for me!" Hamlin tweeted. The charity is now nearing 8.5 million dollars...

Sort of like bodybuilding, steroid abuse aside, a lot of those guys (despite being "ripped") end up with some serious health issues later on in life as a result of their size. Former multi-time Mr. Olympia Ronnie Coleman now has to hobble around in a walker and take large amounts of pain meds to the damage he did.
If I may swerve down this rabbit hole, Colemans issues are atypical even for former mass monsters. He and Dorian Yates were essentially the same, absurd, size of 300ish pounds of muscle on a just shy of six foot frame. The damage done to Yates from his time body building is more typical, bad joints, loss of normal hormone function for life, and heart issues. Colemans being near crippled is, in my opinion, his choosing to include power lifting and trying to lift as high a weight as possible while powering thought injuries.

Because they're objectively terrible, horrible people...

The latest wrinkle in conspiracy land is that...
since his collapse had to have been because of the vaccine...
and the vaccinated are doomed to die...
Damar Hamlin cannot possibly have gotten better...
Therefore he is dead...
And now the NFL is trying to pass off a fake Damar Hamlin to the world.
