Dead at 29 (Spoilers)


His death was sanitized in this film..He was drunk and on drugs at the time of his death and had to be carried to his car in Knoxville, and was being driven to Ohio. He never made it and was discovered dead in the back seat in West Virginia among a pile of beer cans. His death sort of parallels that of other musical artists like, Janis Joplin,Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison and, just recently,Amy Winehouse, also dying in their late 20s of drug abuse.

In Hank's case, he was self-medicating as well as being unethically treated by a quack for severe chronic physical pain. The others you mention may have been self-medicating for depression, or they just liked to get high too much.
