27 Club: Uncovering The Truth Of Jim Morrisons Demise | Our History

Subscribe to Our History: https://bit.ly/3v5mKBG Jim Morrison, lead singer of the 1960s band The Doors, was one of rock history's most influential but controversial cult icons. His mesmerising lyrics and vocals earned him critical acclaim and drew the admiration of an army of fans as his outrageous drink and drug fuelled behaviour, on and off stage, established his reputation as a rebel and trouble-maker. A biographer described him as 'an angel in grace and a dog in heat'. On the third of July 1971 Jim Morrison was found dead in the bathtub of his Paris apartment. He was aged just 27. The official cause was given as heart failure but many have dismissed this finding as a 'fairy tale' and his death still inspires rumour and conspiracy theory. Medical examiner Dr Michael Hunter re-opens the file: 'Jim Morrison's death is shrouded in mystery, But with the evidence I've gathered along with my own experience unravelling cause of death I think I can finally explain how he died.'
