No. You'd pass out 1st and then start breathing again. It isn't that easy, otherwise children around the world would be dropping like flies when they don't get their way.

It's "Ignorant", and secondly I will bet you anything she had an underlying Medical condition or it was just coincidence. The article didn't offer details.

So she had a heart attack. I still don't see how holding her breath caused this. It may have aggravated her heart but there is something else to this.

No. It's like trying to drown yourself, your body just won't allow you to do it deliberately. Your body will start to struggle when it notices that you're not taking in any oxygen, so when your body struggles, your instincts get turned on and you immediately take in any air around you.
The only way I could see this possibly happening is if she where stupid enough to tape her mouth and nose, while having her hands tied behind her back by a friend or something. But then again, that sounds far fetched.
