The former Iron Maiden vocalist Paul Di'Anno passed away last October at the age of 66 in Salisbury, England. Now, with the permission of his family, the cause of his death was revealed. According to an official statement, he died because "he had a tear in the sac around the heart and blood has filled inside it from the main aorta artery and that has caused the heart to stop." Read the entire statement about Paul Di'Anno's death cause: "Dear fans and friends. We have received permission from Paul's family to bring you the news of Paul's cause of death, after the results of the autopsy have been received. His sisters Cheryl and Michelle confirmed the following: 'Basically he had a tear in the sac around the heart and blood has filled inside it from the main aorta artery and that has caused the heart to stop.'

With a magnificent musical set, his musical colleagues said a worthy farewell to their friend," the statement said.
