By 1959, Flynn's financial difficulties had become so serious that he flew on 9 October to [[Vancouver]], British Columbia, to negotiate the lease of his yacht ''[[USS Zaca (IX-73)|Zaca]]'' to the businessman George Caldough. As Caldough was driving Flynn and the 17-year-old actress [[Beverly Aadland]], who had accompanied him on the trip, to the airport on 14 October for a Los Angeles-bound flight, Flynn began complaining of severe pain in his back and legs. Caldough transported him to the residence of a doctor, Grant Gould, who noted that Flynn had considerable difficulty navigating the building's stairway. Gould, assuming that the pain was due to [[degenerative disc disease]] and spinal [[osteoarthritis]], administered 50 milligrams of Demerol ([[pethidine]]) [[intravenously]]. As Flynn's discomfort diminished, he "reminisced at great length about his past experiences" to those present. He refused a drink when offered it.<ref>Letter to Vancouver coroner from a physician, Dr. Grant Gould.

Gould then performed a leg massage in the apartment's bedroom and advised Flynn to rest there before resuming his journey. Flynn responded that he felt "ever so much better." After 20&nbsp;minutes Aadland checked on Flynn and discovered him unresponsive. Despite immediate emergency medical treatment from Gould and a swift transfer by ambulance to [[Vancouver General Hospital]], he did not regain consciousness and was pronounced dead that evening.<ref name="mcnulty2004"/> The coroner's report and the death certificate noted the cause of death as [[myocardial infarction]] due to [[coronary thrombosis]] and coronary [[atherosclerosis]], with [[Fatty liver disease|fatty degeneration of liver]] and partial [[cirrhosis]] of the liver significant enough to be listed as contributing factors. After his death, [[genital wart]]s were reported to have been removed.<ref> https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/errol-flynn-warts-and-all-how-the-broke-hollywood-film-star-met-his-end-in-vancouver</ref> Flynn was outlived by both his parents.<ref>Vancouver coroner's autopsy report, Errol Flynn.
