Janis Joplin died of a heroin overdose
Jimi Hendrix died of a prescription sleeping pill overdose (still, however, Jimi Hendrix used drugs)
Jim Morrison's cause of death is not clear. Some accounts state that he died of a heroin overdose.

One lesson to be learned from these.

If you use heroin (and I doubt anyone on this board does) or know someone who does... NEVER drink alcohol along with it. Heroin depresses your heart rate and so does alcohol, the two together can stop it.
