A bodybuilder who spent 15 hours unconscious in a gym shower passed away two weeks later.

Giuliano Pirone, 33, reportedly collapsed in the shower of a 24-hour gym and died after suffering a brain injury.

Pirone was in an induced coma and on life support for two weeks.

Per ABC News:

He had been working out at a 24-hour gym in Wanneroo when he felt unwell, made his way to a shower cubicle and collapsed in the early hours of Tuesday, August 20.

After they were unable to contact him, his family reported Mr Pirone missing.

Police located Mr Pirone at the gym at 10:30pm by pinging his mobile phone and had to break the shower door down to get to him.

They found him lying on the floor under cold running water.

Police performed CPR until an ambulance arrived.

Mr Pirone did not regain consciousness and an MRI confirmed he had lost brain function.

Daily Mail reports:

His mum said he had stopped at the gym on his way to work, and when he did not return home or return calls later that day she started to panic.

The family tried to contact Mr Pirone’s friends, ex-wife and people he talked to everyday, but no one had heard from him.

‘It was very unusual, completely out of character,’ Ms Pirone previously told the ABC.

His mother reported him missing to the police, they were able to ping his phone and tracked him down at the gym.

‘The police had to barge in, they found him in the shower (with the cold water running) he was slanted on the floor collapsed,’ she said.

‘They thought he was dead.’

Ms Pirone said police officers performed CPR and her son quickly became conscious, before an ambulance rushed him to hospital.
