Former NBA Players Who Surprised Everyone With Their Choice of Jobs After Retirement
Wilt Chamberlain – Everything
Wilt Chamberlain hung up his boots in NBA in 1973. Many people regarded him as one of the best players ever to enter the league at the time. After his retirement, he began looking for a new profession. He played for the Philadelphia/San Francisco Warriors, the Philadelphia 76ers, and the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Chamberlain had played for the Kansas Jayhawks and the Harlem Globetrotters before joining the NBA.
He tried his hand at many things, but nothing that would go the extra mile and sustain him for long. However, finally, he could settle in the role of a pitchman. This is what turned out to be his calling. The basketball legend however capitulated to heart failure in 1999. He may no longer be amongst us, but his NBA legacy still endures.
We hope the last few years of his life proved to be peaceful and made him content. All we can say is rest in peace, legend.

灼熱のスマートホーム：暴走した「最新エアコン」が招いた熱中症死 【記事本文】 すべての家電をスマホで操作できる、最新の「スマートホーム」。そこで一人暮らしをしていた高齢男性が、熱中症で死亡しているのが発見された。室内温度は40度を超えていたという。 驚くべきことに、エアコンのアプリ上では「冷房稼働中」と表示されていたが、実際にはシステムのバグにより室外機が停止し、送風のみが続いていたのだ。外出先から親族が温度をチェックしていたが、表示される「偽りの数値」を信じ込んでしまった。テクノロジーへの過信が、静かな死を招くという現代ならではの落とし穴だった。
