The tragic sudden death of Silicon Valley entrepreneur Dave Goldberg, CEO of SurveyMonkey and husband of Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, has taken a twist. The cause of death was initially withheld; now it has been reported that the 47-year old died while working out in a gym at a Mexican resort hotel. Goldberg was found by his brother lying next to a treadmill in a pool of blood, with a gash in his head; state officials believe the injury occurred after he fell off the machine. Meanwhile, the general manager at Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita - denies that Goldberg was even a guest at the hotel or residences.

    That's a pretty unfair application of hindsight.

    Spend your vacation sitting in the bar eating chips and drinking beer, drop dead of a heart attack at your desk the next week? "Failed to protect your health!"
    Spend it running on the treadmill trying to get in shape, die anyway? "Failed to protect your health!"
