Shortly before his untimely death, Liam Payne seemed in good spirits as he relaxed in Argentina alongside his girlfriend Kate Cassidy.
Liam died at the age of 31 after falling from his fourth-floor balcony at his hotel in Buenos Aires.
In the Snapchat video shared just one hour after his death was reported, Liam is seen wearing a grey t-shirt and captioned the short video, "Lovely day in Argentina."
He also shared a photo from the hotel, writing, "Happy I got some time away."
Liam Payne's last Snapchat video has fans convinced his fall was an accident.
The Snapchat video went viral on social media, which many believe may have been scheduled to go up prior to his death since he says Good morning, and his time of death was 5 p.m. local time. However, Liam's seemingly upbeat mood and normal behavior has many convinced Liam's fall from his balcony was 100 percent accidental.
"It's really crazy how things can turn within seconds," one person commented on X before another added, "Goes to show that you just never know what your last moments are."
A third wrote, "If it’s not suicide and it was just a sudden death that is so scary man."
A shirtless selfie of Liam with his girlfriend Kate was also posted to the social media platform, but the snap has since been deleted.
While in Argentina, Liam made time to support his former 1D bandmate Niall Horan at his concert on October 3. However, his behavior at the concert had fans confused.
"We’re going to Argentina,” Liam wrote on Instagram. “One, because we want to. Two, because we want to. And three, because Niall Horan’s playing down there and I think we might just go and say ‘hello.’"
He continued, "It’s been a while since me and Niall have spoken. We’ve got a lot to talk about and I would like to square up a couple things with the boy. No bad vibes or nothing like that but we just need to talk."
On Instagram, Liam's final post was paying tribute to Super Size Me and One Direction: This Is Us filmmaker Morgan Spurlock, who passed away on May 23.
"Rest in peace Morgan Spurlock it was a pleasure working with you," Liam wrote.
Our thoughts are with Liam's family and friends during this difficult time.
