Tragic Jo Lindner predicted own death just weeks ago after suffering from ultra-rare Rippling muscle disease
FOOTAGE has resurfaced from just weeks prior to bodybuilder and YouTuber Jo Linder's death in which he admitted to health concerns.
The 30-year-old German star suffered an aneurysm suffered while in his girlfriend's arms.
According to his partner Nicha, "Joesthetics" as he was also known, had been suffering from neck pain.
In a moving Instagram post, fellow bodybuilder Nicha wrote: "He was in my arms... than this is just happening too fast... 3 days ago he kept said that he had pain in his neck ... we didn't really realise it until it was too late.
"If your guys were to know him like I do… he is the most amazing and incredible person in this world."
This tragic news followed an interview published on June 8, in which he appeared on Bradley Martyn's Raw Talk.
During his appearance, Linder discussed his rare muscle condition, called rippling muscle disease.
This disease causes muscles to be unusually sensitive to movement or pressure.
Linder explained he was concerned that over-training could lead to a heart attack.
"The heart is also a muscle, that’s my biggest concern always. Like, what if I get such a bad cramp that my heart gets a cramp?" he said.

"That makes me scared. That's why I'm staying away from bodybuilding competitions too much.
"Because I would take all these diuretics and if I stop eating salt and drink a lot, and then stop drinking as well, you would pee everything out, and then you would take a diuretic as well on top and then you pee even more sodium out.
"I cannot exist really. I cannot even walk anymore."
Linder added that he was afraid of how this dehydration could potentially lead to heart issues
With 8.5million followers, Linder had become a huge star in the bodybuilding community.
He also had just shy of one million YouTube followers, watching along as he shared a mixture of bodybuilding content and lifestyle videos.
