On This Day: Jim Morrison Dies

People were strange when you were a stranger.

RIP Jim.

He had it all, and couldn't hold on to it. What can you say?

One thing that draws a red flag, Bernett and the other 19 yr old guy that worked at the Circus said that Morrison was bearded. On numerous accounts, Morrison shaved his beard when he came to Paris and wasn't bearded when he was found in the bathtub.

The official story is that Jim Morrison died at the age of 27-years-old in the early morning hours of July 3, 1971, in his bathtub at his apartment in Paris with his girlfriend Pamela Courson. The Doors manager, Bill Siddons, flew in from L.A. but did not see his body. Why not? The only people who apparently did were a few emergency medical personnel and Dr. Max Vassile, who is now deceased. He never gave any interviews only saying that Morrison died of "natural causes" specifically of heart failure which is why there was no autopsy.
