Legendary professional wrestler Hulk Hogan, whose real name was Terry Bollea, passed away last week at the age of 71 due to a heart attack. A report by a Florida medical examiner highlighted Hogan's prior battles with leukemia and atrial fibrillation, which may have contributed to his demise.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced that flags would be flown at half-staff on Friday to honor Hogan, declaring it 'Hulk Hogan Day'. Hogan's death was pronounced less than 90 minutes after emergency services reached his Clearwater home on July 24.

Hogan, known as a WWE icon, was celebrated for his vibrant personality and remarkable wrestling career. He leaves behind a legacy cherished by fans and family, with daughter Brooke Hogan expressing gratitude for knowing the man beyond his public persona. Funeral arrangements have yet to be disclosed.
