Hashish is derived from the cannabis plant. In Nepal, it grows wild and isn't refined or processed. The quality is near-lethal and contains at least 4,000 chemical compounds in its composition. That's what Bruce was doing and it killed him. The autopsy was performed by Dr. Lycette and he concluded it was the immediate cause of death on July 20th. But the autopsy was done on Monday, July 23rd, three days after he died. This was because of legal reasons and his body was locked away in refrigeration. By then, the level of cannabis in Bruce Lee's bloodstream had degraded to a much lower amount.
They didn't do any toxicology tests on July 20th because no one would touch Lee after he was pronounced dead in the ER room at Queen Elizabth. His body was covered with a sheet and sat in the ward for hours. Linda and Raymond Chow had to get Langford to drive to the hospital's morgue to certify Bruce dead. Peter Lee was called to the hospital morgue to identify the body was that of his brother, Bruce. In fact, he agreed with Langford and Wu's final results, cause of death.
I have pages of the autopsy report and the summary. It's enough right there. Lycette, Langford and Wu all agreed it was from cannabis inoxication that resulted in an allergic reaction. Of course, just prior to the hearing, Lycette told Langford and Wu to play it down, but they would not, because they had the correct and truthful facts. Scotland Yard flew in Professor Teare, who had more credentials to switch it to the presciption pain killer as the cause. It wasn't. Hong Kong government sanitized the hearing and the head coronor wasn't a coroner--he was an attorney who stamped "Death By Misadventure" on Lee's death certificate. By the way, Teare's arguments were fairly weak and he deliberetely avoided talking about May 10th at the inquest.
You have an actor who has a brand-new insurance company, a perfect image and kids who fancy themselves after him. His insurance company stipulated that if Lee did any drugs, the payouts would be affected by this. When you are insured, the type of death will dictate the amount of what is paid out.
All the pill could do is prevent the naseau and vomiting caused by the edema (recall on May 10th, this was part of what was happening), by relaxing him and putting him to sleep on July 20th. The pill, mixed in with the hashish leaves isn't a good combination. It could worsen the condition, but certainly not kill him. Than, he lapsed into a coma, as the onset of the brain edema came on fast. He went into the seizure in the ambulance that was enroute to Queen Elizabeth and died before they got in the parking lot.
Having 1% body fat left is very dangerous, as there is no way it can absorb some of the drug. Lee's high metabolism broke the hashish down very quickly. That means it's going to work much faster on Lee, rather than on a man with a slower metabolic rate. May 10th is a good example of how fast his metabolism broke it down and it almost killed him. On July 20th, Betty should have driven him to Baptist, which was very close and he'd have lived.
In fact, there was at least 60 minutes of wasted time that night, including a 30-minute arrival by Chow, and a 20-minute ride across town to Queen Elizabeth. The rest of wasted time was in between. Ironic, the ambulance was summoned from Baptist Hospital by Dr. Chu.
Regarding Dr. Wu; in order to learn more about his evidence and world-reknowned research, you'd have to fly to Hong Kong or speak to him over the phone. It is very detailed and accurate.
