mild death may occur...What does it mean?
Today , I read an article about a Las Vega fast food restaurant sells the burgers which contain over 6,000 calories. This restaurant posts warning on the door including " repeated increase of wardrobe size , back pain, male breast growth , tooth decay and ...in some cases, mild death may occur...What does the last sentence mean ? Mild death may occur ? I can't get it. Could you explain it for me ? Thanks a lot.

It would probably clog your arteries so badly you would experience so much distress it would be like a mild death.

It's a joke. It's like saying, "you could die, but you're likely to recover from it."
