The Telegraph this morning reports that has man has died while playing Fit. The victim was described as "fit and well" by the newspaper, and passed away while engaging in "jogging" in the first-party game.

"We spoke to him on the phone when he was playing on the Wii machine. He told us he had just ordered himself a kebab and was sitting there with a glass of port," said the mother of the deceased.

"But a little while after he had put the phone down, he collapsed for no reason. It was completely out of the blue. They still can't come up with an answer why it happened, which is one of the reasons it is so hard to come to terms with - there was no reason for it."

"It is just unbelievable," concluded the mother of deceased Tim Eves.
