avengers endgame fan hospitalized

A die-hard fan was hospitalized after viewing the much-anticipated “Avengers: Endgame” film.

The 21-year-old college student from China cried so much at the theater that she began to hyperventilate.

Chest pains overcame her as she struggled to breathe. Muscle spasms caused her fingers to stiffen up like claws.

Her friends said that she was crying so much as a result of the movie’s surprise ending.

A doctor at Mingzhou Hospital of Zhejiang University said they treated the woman with oxygen in order to control the breathing and treat the symptoms of the hyperventilation.

This physical state occurs when the blood contains too much oxygen and not enough carbon dioxide.

While some people can treat hyperventilation by breathing with their lips pursed together, extreme cases require treatment by a medical professional.

Fortunately, the woman was treated and released from the hospital shortly after admittance.

The movie was released in China last Wednesday where it grossed $107.5 million.

The film opened in the US on Friday and broke the record for gross sales by any movie on opening weekend.

With all the hysteria surrounding the release of the film, it is not a big surprise that a moviegoer suffered a physical reaction to the plot twists of the story.

However, some internet users are shaming the woman from the province of Ningbo, Zhejiang for taking the movie too seriously.
