Inside Chyna's Tragic Final Days
WWE wrestler Joanie "Chyna" Laurer put her final moments on display when she posted a bizarre video of herself to YouTube on Sunday, shortly before she was discovered dead at age 45.
In the 13-minute clip that she put online at 6:40 a.m. on April 17, Chyna wears headphones and is in her Redondo Beach, Calif., apartment, which overlooks the ocean.
Chyna starts off the video talking about the importance of drinking water in a groggy and slurring voice after downing an entire bottle of orange liquid.
She then wanders aimlessly out to her balcony to check out the surfers, telling the camera that "it takes me a minute to get started."
Chyna then goes into how she wanted to start a food delivery business but ran into trouble with regulations as she makes herself a smoothie.
The wrestler, who reportedly died of a possible overdose, reveals in the video: "I've been having fun because I feel like I can express myself, talk to my friends ... it's really been helping me a lot."
After more rambling, Chyna, with gooey green smoothie coating her lips, finishes her "breakfast of champions."
"Anyway, y'all good morning," says the sports star, who had a troubled history of addiction and mental health issues. "Have a wonderful day. I'll keep you posted throughout the day. I hope it will be a quiet day and a nice day."
She then tells fans to wake up — or to just stay in bed all day since it's the weekend.
Her last words to viewers: "Love y'all. Peace."
Chyna posted one final message on Twitter the following day: "#MotivationMonday," she wrote April 18, two days before she was found dead. "Make it a great day everyone! Get your fitness on!"
