Spoiler warning: Don't read if you have yet to see "Avengers: Infinity War."
Spider-Man's death in Iron Man's arms in "Avengers: Infinity War" was heartbreaking and now we have even more reason to mourn the moment.
Directors Joe and Anthony Russo spoke with Bill Bradley for HuffPost and confirmed the fan theory that Peter's spidey sense gave him time to register what was happening to him.
"That’s correct," Joe Russo answered when Bradley asked about Spider-Man's ability to perceive danger. "He was aware of something."
Fans had guessed that theory after seeing the movie.
The reason why Spider-Man said “Mr. Stark, I don’t feel so good.” is because his spidey sense was tingling. The death affected him more because he could feel it before it happened.

Peter’s spidey sense was trying to alert him about his own death moments before it happened which is why he wasn’t feeling so good 🤧

"LOOK AWAY NOW"
What's so depressing & tragic about Peter/Spidey's death wasn't only that he was just a kid, but, because of his Spidey-Sense, he would've been the first to know that something very, very wrong was happening.
Can you imagine the panic? The dread?? 😭
At the end of "Infinity War," Thanos, played by Josh Brolin, snaps his fingers while wearing the Infinity Gauntlet full of all six Infinity Stones. His snap results in many of the universe's residents, including many beloved Marvel superheroes, turning into dust.
Peter starts feeling ill before disappearing, falling into Tony Stark's arms and saying, "I don't feel so good."
To make it even more heartbreaking, Tom Holland, who improvised much of the death scene, was able to share his fear of death.
"I don’t want to go," he cries. "I don’t want to go, Mr. Stark, please.”
The movie deaths have also spawned some hilarious memes, though.
Fans have to wait for the fourth "Avengers" movie, set for 2019, to see if beloved characters will somehow come back.
