This is what a king looks like in his last moments of life
The scene was captured by photographer Larry Pannell, who released this shocking photo in 2018
."We found him lying in the grass, exhausted and unable to move. We were no more than a meter away from him as he died in the shade of a tree. Dropping my camera, we stared at each other, closing our eyes for what seemed like an era. I just wanted him to know that he wouldn't die alone as he struggled to breathe, his chest only gets hurt from time to time. Then one last tickle, his last breath, he was gone. The king was dead.
Life is short. Power is ephemeral. Physical beauty is short-lived, I have seen it in lions. I have seen it in old people. Everyone who lives long enough will become weak and very vulnerable at some point.
Therefore, let us be humble. Help the sick, the weak, the vulnerable and most importantly never forget that we will leave the stage one day.
