Actor Al Pacino shares his chilling experience with COVID-19, describing how he lost consciousness and nearly died. He recounts the surreal moment paramedics swarmed his house and the unexpected philosophical reflection that followed.
"I don’t know what the hell aging is. It seems absurd and crazy. I sometimes think, Why can’t I find some steroids that won’t kill me? I took some when I had bad COVID," he said."They said my pulse was gone. It was so — you’re here, you’re not. I thought: Wow, you don’t even have your memories. You have nothing. Strange porridge," he said.The actor said he knew something was wrong when he started to feel"unusually not good" and developed a fever and dehydration.
The acting legend said he"didn't see the white light or anything" but did get a bit philosophical while reflecting on what happened. Al Pacino is finally explaining what led to his abrupt announcement of "Oppenheimer" as the Best Picture winner at the 96th Academy Awards.As Hamlet says, 'To be or not to be'; 'The undiscovered country from whose bourn, no traveler returns.' And he says two words: 'no more.' It was no more. You’re gone. I’d never thought about it in my life," he said."But you know actors: It sounds good to say I died once.
