When I was a young teen, I watched my grandparents' neighbor die of a heart attack in his boat. He leaned over - I thought to get a life jacket or something - and his boat just kept circling backwards. Not much to say. It took the ambulance over an hour to arrive. There was a very small pool of blood, maybe 2-3 inches in diameter, on the floor of the boat.
That's it. Nothing exciting or traumatic.
Wait, heart attacks can result in blood loss?
Perhaps he hit something when he fell over.
True.
