A man who received the transplanted heart of a suicide victim has killed himself in exactly the same way.
Friends of Mr Graham said he had not shown any signs of being depressed.
Scientists say there are more than 70 documented cases of transplant patients having personality changes as they take on some of the characteristics of the donor.
Last month, a woman from Lancashire claimed her literary tastes changed radically following a kidney transplant.
Cheryl Johnson used to enjoy celebrity biographies and best sellers such as The Da Vinci Code.
But now she prefers classics such as Jane Austen's Persuasion and Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment.
Character changes in transplant recipients are known as cellular memory phenomenon.
However, medical experts are sceptical about the concept and insist there is little convincing evidence.
