Turkey - Jaxon Tippet, an Australian fitness influencer and father, died of a heart attack shortly after his 30th birthday. Shortly before, he had mused about the benefits of growing old ...

He died last Sunday during a trip to Turkey, theMirror reported.

The social media star had become popular due to his positive attitude and his urge to help people.

He himself had a tough past. In 2018, he almost ended up in prison due to his addiction to steroids.

During a search, pills and a syringe were found on him. Jaxon himself described this time as the lowest point in his life.

"I lost a girlfriend because of it, I almost lost my family because of it," he said in an interview in 2022. He also almost ended up in prison.

These circumstances ultimately prompted him to take a new path in life. On Instagram, he shared his own past, but above all fitness content and motivation for his fans.

He had only celebrated his 30th birthday on October 31 and shared 30 lessons that his life had taught him up to that point on his profile.

Among them, he wrote in a life-affirming manner: "Growing old is better than the alternative - dying young" - but unfortunately this wish was not to come true for him.
