“What the F**k?”: Pissed at the Idea of Death, Frustrated Arnold Schwarzenegger Fails to Cope With Its One Specific Aspect

Arnold Schwarzenegger has recently been in the limelight because of his comments about aging and death. During a recent interview, the bodybuilding legend revealed disliking every limitation that comes with aging. While talking about it, Schwarzenegger said he “hated” the idea of death and couldn’t cope with a particular reality of life.

Lately, Arnold Schwarzenegger sat with Chris Wallace for an exclusive interview. While appearing on the CNN show, Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace, Arnie cleared the air about a statement about death and explained what he truly meant.

Arnold Schwarzenegger set the record straight

During the interview, Chris Wallace asked the 75-year-old, “You were quoted recently as saying that heaven is a fantasy and that you hate the idea of dying?” The reporter questioned if that was because death was a part of life even “Arnold Schwarzenegger cannot control.” However, the bodybuilding legend immediately said that he had been misquoted.

“I did not say that heaven is a fantasy,” said the former Mr. Olympia. However, the Hollywood superstar explained he didn’t agree with the context heaven is talked about. Arnie said it won’t be like the living world, that he and the host would meet and have interviews in heaven. In fact, he didn’t like accepting any of it. “I hate the idea of getting old, and I hate the idea of dying,” said Arnie.

The 75-year-old also explained the reason behind his belief. “I mean, look at the life I’ve had,” said the bodybuilding legend. From winning seven Mr. Olympias and five Mr. Universes to Hollywood, and politics, the Austrian Oak has done it all. “Eventually, it will end? I mean, what the f**k? It’s not my style,” Arnie told Wallace. Though Schwarzenegger did not talk about how he constantly scrutinized his physique despite earning all the titles, in the interview, he did so in his documentary.

Schwarzenegger’s constant hunger to achieve perfection

Despite people hailing him for having arguably the greatest physique in the history of bodybuilding, Arnold Schwarzenegger felt differently. In his recently released Netflix docu-series, Arnold, the bodybuilding icon revealed he always chases after perfection. Despite training and improving, the Austrian criticized himself in front of the mirror.

Even while dominating the competition and winning multiple Mr. Olympias, Arnie thought, “How did this pile of s**t win?” While Schwarzenegger stopped competing after 1980, the critical eye never went away. During the Chris Wallace interview, Schwarzenegger said if he felt that way in his prime, Wallace could imagine how he feels at 75.

While it might often seem that Arnold Schwarzenegger has the answer to almost everything, there are some things about life even he can’t accept. What did you feel about the actor’s confession? Let us know in the comments.
