On January 22, 2008, a tragic event occurred as Heath Ledger lost his life under peculiar circumstances. The actor was discovered at his residence, lying on the floor, with pills strewn around him.

It was observed by close acquaintances of Ledger that he used to purchase pills in large quantities. No suicide note was left behind.

Speculation among fans suggests that Ledger may have been overwhelmed by his portrayal of the Joker in The Dark Knight, leading to a gradual deterioration of his mental state.
