Prosecutors in the southern German town of Ulm, near Merckle's home,
said the 74-year-old died when a train struck him late on Monday.
There was no sign anyone else was involved, they said.
Merckle was ranked as the world's 94th richest person in 2008

I am 73 today. So this multi-billionaire lived less than two years
longer. During my future birth days I will be able to forevermore tell
everyone that this uber rich guy, this guy who could buy anything,
became so unhappy because of financial losses that he committed suicide.
