Eric Clapton's sad story

How did Eric Clapton's son die?

It is a long essay but read somewhere from the middle.

In short, the boy flew out of a 53rd storey condo from an open glass window which was not supposed to be opened. Freak accident. Why is it that ang mohs never see the value of grills?? We chinese people have no qualms about grilling the entire HDB flat. Rather safe than sorry. Rather a prison than a picturesque, unobstructed, panoramic postcard view.

The thought sends chills to my bones. Inconceivable. I will never want that to happen to my boy nor to anybody's boy.

So sad. Eric Clap wrote a song called "Circus left town". Eric and his son Connor visited the circus just a day before the accident happened. They were so happy and then the next day, tragedy struck. So, Eric Clapton wrote this song and he described his feelings as "so sad". Heartbreaking. You can find this song on youtube. Very beautiful, very sad.

And of course, the very popular song called, "Tears in Heaven" he wrote to describe the scenario of ever seeing his son again.
