Osbourne had been suffering from Parkinson’s disease for over half a decade prior to his death. He was diagnosed with the disease in 2019. In the months leading up to his death, Osbourne’s condition had left him without the ability to walk or stand onstage, leading to him performing from his bat throne during his final show.
Despite his deteriorating condition, the “Prince of Darkness” managed to give a crowd of 40,000 people in Birmingham, England, one last emotionally-charged performance. Osbourne appeared grateful toward the fans during his performance, taking time to show his appreciation:
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart,” Osbourne said during the concert. “You’re the best, each and every one of you.”
