Report on Bob Saget’s Final Moments Reveal More Details About His Death

After a statement was released by the Orange County Medical Examiner revealing that Bob Saget’s cause of death was most likely from falling and hitting the back of his head, an investigation has now uncovered more details about how it all might’ve happened.

Saget’s official cause of death was ruled to be from “posterior scalp abrasions, subgaleal hemorrhage, discoloration in the upper and lower eyelids due to skull fracture, subdural hematoma, and subarachnoid hemorrhage.” According to a new report from People, investigators told the publication that their theory is that Saget fell backward in his Ritz-Carlton Orlando Grande Lakes hotel bathroom the night of his death.

The Orange County Sheriff’s department came to this conclusion after examining surveillance footage from the hotel and determining that the Full House actor was not in distress when he entered his room for the night. They believe that the fatal fall might have occurred in the hotel bathroom where Saget might’ve slipped, lost consciousness, woke up, and then crawled into bed where he would later lose consciousness again and eventually die from his injuries. This is not a conclusive finding, however, and the investigation surrounding his death is still ongoing. 

Bob Saget’s family released a statement after learning the cause of his death where they shared that no drugs or alcohol were involved.
