Antonio Banderas had a heart attack that changed his life. The actor claimed that instead of making things worse, it gave him a fresh perspective on life.

Banderas, now 61, was rushed to the hospital after suffering a heart attack. He only survived the “very dramatic” episode because his wife had purchased powerful aspirin tablets the day before.

Despite experiencing a near-death experience, the actor opened up about it years later, saying that the event had been mostly positive.
