Wakefield bodybuilder dies after collapsing at Shropshire competition
Mateusz Chmura, a 33-year-old amateur bodybuilder from Wakefield, died after collapsing during the PCA British Finals in Shropshire on Sunday. The incident halted the competition while he received emergency treatment, and has prompted organisers to offer condolences and support to those affected.
Chmura was competing in the Classic Bodybuilding Medium division, just two weeks after placing second in his first competition. Paramedics and the Midlands Air Ambulance treated him before he was taken to hospital; the cause of death has not been publicly confirmed. His wife, Patrycja, said his death was incredibly painful and warned that she had not authorised an online fundraiser claiming to support the family.
