The Gamemakers had to electrically stun him so that they could clear up the bodies of the tributes he had killed.
Death
Titus was eventually killed in an avalanche, which was thought to have been set up by the Gamemakers to ensure that the victor was not a lunatic as well as showing ruthlessness has little use in winning the games.
