Sort of. Tom Sparks had a stroke while trying to compete in the obstacle course. He complained that his knee hurt and (more importantly) he had shortness of breath. After being rushed to the hospital and 5 brain surgeries later, he died on November 5, 2009. The doctors blamed the stroke on a pre-existing condition that Sparks was not aware of. This condition caused abnormal clotting of his blood, which caused the stroke. He was 33 years-old and had only been married a few months at the time of his death.
