Either desperate for a root or at 49 just got tired of using "the rabbit". In any case very messy way to go.
Wonder if his home insurance covers this eventuality.
Doctor stuck in lover's chimney dies
September 1, 2010 - 7:33AM
US police say a California doctor died after apparently trying to get into the home of the man she had been dating by sliding down the chimney.
Her decomposing body was found stuck in the chimney days later.
Police Sergeant Mary DeGeare said investigators do not suspect foul play in the death of Dr Jacquelyn Kotarac.
Authorities say the 49-year-old apparently climbed on the roof last Wednesday night, removed the chimney cap and slid feet first down the flue after unsuccessfully trying to get into the house other ways.
DeGeare said the man Kotarac was pursuing had left the home unnoticed to avoid a confrontation.
The body went undiscovered for several days until someone noticed odours coming from the fireplace.
Firefighters dismantled the chimney on Saturday to remove the body.
