“I didn’t see the white light or anything like that,” the 84-year-old actor said of his brush with death. “There’s nothing there.”
Al Pacino revealed on a podcast over the weekend that he almost died during a bout with Covid-19 — a near-death experience that left him pondering his mortality.
Pacino, 84, was plugging his memoir, “Sonny Boy.” on The New York Times’ podcast “The Interview” when he recounted how in 2020 he fell sick at his home from Covid and the situation quickly became dicey.
Pacino said that he had a fever and was dehydrated with a faint pulse and that he lost consciousness.
My dad went into cardiac arrest for 15 min. He said he saw nothing, too.
Doesn’t this dude have a toddler or kindergartener at 84?
Looks it.
He almost died. It was near-death. Even he said so. But that wasn’t good enough for NBC News. They had to say he “briefly died.”
He didn’t. You don’t come back from death.
You don’t come back from death.
If you’ve seen Narcan work, you’d change your mind.
And, very rarely, hospital trauma patients have been brought back from what’s defined as death, to life. But the timing, the on-hand staff and equipment has to be varied, be many, and be relevant. And also a lotta luck.
If your whole body goes through a chipper, is there a moment where all or most of your cells are still alive?
You don’t come back from death? Oh yeah?! Then explain Pokémon The First Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back!
Mew and Mewtwo are fighting and Ash jumps in between them because he doesn’t want them to fight. They kill him and bro falls to the ground and turns to stone. Then Pikachu tries to wake him up with slaps and thunder shocks, but fails to wake him up as Pikachu breaks out into tears. All the other Pokémon witnessing this start crying over Ash’s courageous sacrifice and Pikachu’s loss, that their tears fly away or whatever, and those tears flow into Ash’s body. He then turns back to flesh and he’s like, “Yo I’m alive and that hurt, but I’m alright.”
The movie is 27yrs old. Even if you were 70, you’d have been middle aged when it released.
How dare you
I’m old and I fucking love Pokémon
I will always love Pokémon
I will be buried with a Raichu
