In the last stream before his death, Wolke said he was experiencing unusual symptoms. He was seeing black spots and felt intoxicated despite not having any alcohol. He thought his illness could be food-related.

He added, “Then I lay down and felt drunk. Seriously, it felt like I’d been drinking alcohol, but I hadn’t had anything to drink.”
