It sounds like he had a severe heart attack and acute heart failure. Nausea and pain in neck, jaw, chest, or left arm commonly occur with a heart attack. His heart then stopped beating and he fainted and stopped breathing. An event like this is called "sudden death." It may occur as the first symptom in people with underlying heart disease who don't know about the heart disease. Hope this answers your question.
