Doors star died in toilet, claims book

THE official story goes like this: on the last night of Jim Morrison’s life, the rocker went to a movie in Paris, listened to records, fell ill and died of heart failure in his bathtub at the age of 27.

But rumours have always swirled around the death of the Doors frontman and, 36 years later, a former Paris nightclub manager is telling a different story.

In his book, Sam Bernett says that Morrison died in a toilet stall of his club after what he believes was a heroin overdose.
