A German Netflix star and bodybuilder collapsed and died in a gym while allegedly walking a day after placing a tragic last selfie on a treadmill.
Vittorio Pirbazari, 44, known for his Schurkrol in Dogs van Berlin, died on Monday with colleague actor and filmmaker who went to Instagram to confirm the tragic news.
Ibrahim announced the death of his friend and wrote: “Vito had a soft heart as a ten -year -old.” According to the actor, Pirbazari may have had a heart attack during the treadmill, but this still has to be confirmed.
In January, the Netflix star uploaded a series of selfies from a hospital after surgery. He explained that his right chest muscle had been torn and surgically confirmed.
He took his 90,700 Instagram followers on his healing journey, but before his death brought him back an almost fatal car accident.
Pirbazari survived the test in a miraculous way, but suffering a broken vertebra, tissue damage and both legs required stitches.
After a 12 -week break from the gym after his accident, he decided to return on March 23. When on Sunday, March 30, a day before he died, he placed what his last selfie would be.
He wrote under the image: 'My current form after 12 weeks without exercise or a lot of practice. Of course it is not a comparison with earlier, but I am on the right track considering the circumstances'.
