Elvis Aaron Presley died on August 16, 1977 at the age of 42. He died due to what is now considered a massive and sudden heart attack, but at the time was believed to be congestive heart failure due to an enlarged heart and drug misuse (in early 1977, he was reportedly given 199 prescriptions). He was found in his bathroom by his finacee, Ginger Alden. However, some theories currently exist that Elvis Presley is not dead in his grave, but was put into the witness protection program.

He died 30 years ago this month. I really wish people would stop saying he died on the toilet. He was not sitting on the john. Just goes to show what people will say. The first ones to find him stated he was on the bathroom floor. He evidently went to do his business-and after he finished- he had a massive heart attack. He died from abusing prescription medication that should of never been prescribe in the first place. When you are famous like he was, Dr's just tend to give you what you ask for.Same thing happens today. He was overweight and was not taking care of himself.

died 1977 due to
In 1994, the autopsy into the death of Presley was re-opened. Coroner Dr Joseph Davis declared: "There is nothing in any of the data that supports a death from drugs. In fact, everything points to a sudden, violent heart attack."[173] However, there is little doubt that long-term drug misuse caused his heart to fail."
