I heard he had pneumonia, if treated wrong, it can be fatal, but that is rare, especially for someone young. Everyone dies, I guess this was his time. :(.

What void could an answer to this question possibly fill?

I can;t imagine that the energy required to play the joker would be sodraining that it would cause such an adverse reaction. look at Chrisitan Bale in "The Macinist" He lost a ton of weight, what he did was totally unhealthy, then he turned around and gained weight rapidly for the Batman role. If he didn't have such an adverse reaction, then I doubt Mr Ledger would have one so bad from simple exhaustion. He most likely overdosed on something. They said that there were pills all over the bed. I'm sure that if it were an accident, he would've gone in his sleep. But again, it's all speculation. The whole situation is very sad. His baby girl is so young, and now she will never know her father.

No

Wait for the autopsy and toxicology reports.
