Avicii Feared That He Would Die Young

Following Avicii's untimely death, fans have tuned in to Avicii's unsettling footage of the True Stories documentary.

Tim Bergling, aka Avicii, passed away suddenly in Oman last week at just 28 years of age.

The film shows that Avicii feared that he would die young in a haunting confession during the documentary.

After being diagnosed with acute pancreatitis at age 21 from alcohol abuse, Avicii was taken to the hospital to have his gallbladder and appendix removed in 2014. Between 2008 and 2016, Avicii managed to perform a total of 813 gigs.

“I have said, like, ‘I’m going to die.’ I have said it so many times. And so I don’t want to hear that I should entertain the thought of doing another gig.”

Avicii went on to say “Everyone knows that I’ve had anxiety and that I have tried. I did not expect that people would try to pressure me into doing more gigs. They have seen how ill I have felt by doing it, but I had a lot of push-back when I wanted to stop doing gigs.”
