Hulk age Obituary
CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) - Hulk Hogan, the mustachioed, headscarf-wearing, bicep-busting icon of professional wrestling who turned the sport into a massive business and stretched his cultural influence far beyond the ring, died Thursday in Florida at age 71.
Hogan was pronounced dead at a hospital after authorities in Clearwater responded to a morning call about a cardiac arrest, police said.
"There were no signs of foul play or suspicious activity," Maj. Nate Burnside told reporters.
Hogan, whose real name was Terry Bollea, was perhaps the biggest star in WWE's long history. He was the main draw for the first WrestleMania in 1985 and was a fixture for years, facing everyone from Andre The Giant and Randy Savage to The Rock and even company chairman Vince McMahon.
He won at least six WWE championships and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005.
"One of pop culture's most recognizable figures, Hogan helped WWE achieve global recognition in the 1980s. WWE extends its condolences to Hogan's family, friends, and fans," WWE said.

My sincere condolences to Hulk's entire family. I'm not exactly sure when this photo of my Mother was taken with Hulk Hogan but I believe it was during the late '80's or early '90's. My mother was on vacation in St. Pete/Tampa area walking along the beach with her two friends when a boat with a few couples pulled up on beach. My mother approached him and said "you look very familiar - do I know you?" He smiled and said "maybe... I'm Hulk Hogan". They all laughed and she asked if she could get a picture with him and he said sure. I will always remember Hulk as a gentleman, good family man, and good person .... 100%. Energy cannot be destroyed; only transferred. I'm sure his star will always shine bright.
