How Spider-Man's Spidey Sense Affected Him in AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR

If you haven't seen Avengers: Infinity War yet...

For me, one of the most heartbreaking moments in Avengers: Infinity War was the moment that Spider-Man died. I've seen the movie three times already and that scene completely wrecked me every time.

One of the most interesting aspects of this scene is that Spider-Man seemed to have a little more time to express his fear of what was happening than everyone else. None of the other characters who died after Thanos snapped his fingers really knew what was happening to them. They just faded away into ash and didn't realize they were dying until the very last moment.

Not Spider-Man, though. We saw Peter Parker start to express his fear of what was happening to him a lot longer than anyone else before he disintegrated into ash. The first thing he tells Tony Stark was that he wasn't feeling well before collapsing into Tony's arms. I believe that before this moment, his spidey-senses kicked in and they were telling him that something was terribly wrong. Because Spider-Man is able to sense bad things before they happen, he must've felt the moment right before Thanos snapped his fingers and those feelings just surged through his body and he knew that he, and maybe even half of the universe, was going to die. 

Peter knowing what was happening before he died puts a whole new perspective on his death. Watching him plead to Tony in his arms saying, "I don't want to die" is so much more powerful knowing that he knew what was happening, especially when no one else knew. Poor Tony was forced to helplessly watch Peter Parker die, and there was nothing he could have said or done to help.

Tony Stark's worst fear came true when Thanos snapped his fingers and his young protege mostly likely felt it all happen before he died. 

What did you all think about this moment in the movie?
