I just read several articles. It weirds me out that most of them focus on the consensual sexual interactions. I get it: it's weird to most people. But the professor had an interesting breadth of work wherein a different approach to choreography was established. That's barely mentioned. Anyways, it seems instrusive to focus on the details of their sex life, especially since it wasn't directly linked to the death in the autopsy. Click bait, sigh.

Some articles even focus on the fact that the partner was not fired.

That's really sad. That's why they emphasize extreme caution and to always have two people when exercising these kinks, so many things can go wrong.

Agreed. We all have our kinks. Shame folks will remember him for how he died.

This is just sad. There's nothing wrong with consensual BDSM. It's tasteless to make lazy jokes about it.

That being the first comparison to come in mind raises even more questions.
Like hell it does. When someone's mind is reeling from shock and grief it's pretty low to make dark insinuations like that.

This isn't even one of the worst or weirdest kinks by a long shot. It's tragic this happened and I wonder how the other guy's taking it. But in all honesty breath play can be risky, that said the guy seems to have been a kink educator and had years of practice on the scene.

Reading the article in the Hollywood Reporter they haven't concluded the cause of death - it could be the GHB that seems to be present in his blood, it could have been the fact that he was ill. But of course most of the sensationalist sort of news needs to focus on the primary consensual sex act between two adults who've partaken in this before.

An autopsy report filed on Nov. 22, 2017, concluded the immediate cause was "sudden death during recreational mummification bondage." The mode was listed as "undetermined." Noted as a possible contributing factor: gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid, otherwise known as the recreational drug and nervous system depressant, GHB. A sample taken after his death showed George had 11 ml/liter in his blood — roughly one-tenth the amount it would take to get someone high. But with GHB's short half-life and ambiguity as to when the sample was taken, it could have been higher when he was still alive. According to John Duran, a lawyer hired by Chasey shortly after George's death, Chasey told him that "no drugs were present" in the dungeon that evening.

After an investigation into George's death, headed up by Marta Miyakawa, a veteran homicide detective, the LAPD could find no credible criminal component to his death and passed the case back to the coroner. And that is where the case ended. The cause of death is still listed as undetermined — whether it was the drugs, or the restricted breathing, or the fluid in his lungs (Shils remembers George had a bad cold at the time). Besides some abrasions on his penis where the chastity device was secured, there were no cuts or bruises or signs of struggle — beyond three broken ribs, likely caused by CPR. Calls to the coroner's office and the LAPD were not returned.

"Hey if I got to the dentist and he does some work and I die well no big deal it was consensual! Except the dying part but accidents happen."

People getting into these scenes usually know how dangerous they can potentially be. It's not the same at all.

That too. Considering how much practice the guy had I seriously doubt it was negligence in setting up the scene.

It sucks that accidental deaths like these happen. Thankfully the coroner did not rule the cause of death was the wrap - but BDSM often, often often involves very dangerous things. That's why you typically do these in an environment where there are lots of people and everyone practices safety as much as possible. Shit can go wrong so fast. :\

Okay, hold up. "Mummification bondage" is weird, but not nearly as weird as a mummification ritual. I'm calling clickbait on OP.
