Please note he is well build and good muscles...

But let us talk serious and let the non believer know that ALLAH is the one who give life and death... At one's appointed time, he will die no matter how strong he is? nor what is his age?
ALLAH says in QURAN : chapter Hajj Verse 22
And it is He (ALLAH) who gave Life and it is He who will cause You to die, and it is He who will then resurrect You...
(Man is indeed extremely prone to denying the TRUTH.)

In other verse from Quran he reminds us (Ch Muminoon Verse 78-80:
It is He (ALLAH) who has endowed you with the faculties of hearing and sight and has given you hearts (to think) Scarcely do you give THANKS. It is He who has dispersed you all around the earth. and it is unto him you will all be mustered. It is He who gives LIFE and cause DEATH, and He holds mastery over the alternation of Night and day. DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THIS???

The intelligent are those who will REFLECT on what QURAN speaks...

Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajivoon.

Difficulty in breathing could be an indication of Heart Attack.

Eating habits and lack of exercises are the causes. So, keep a track on everything.
