A healthy human can go 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water and 3 weeks without food. The article indicated he took breaks to use facilities, and had a cot to take cat naps on, so exhaustion is a stretch. In my life I've frequently done 48-72 hours without sleeping. It is obvious to me that his death would have coincidentaly happened at whatever he might have been doing. It's just that "South Korea man dies while watching TV" does not make for sensational headlines.
