Bee Gees star Barry Gibb: 'My sister caught fire once'

Barry Gibb, of Bee Gees fame, has revealed that he is very afraid of death and avoids engaging in activities that might lead to injury or accidents

The star confessed that losing his brothers Robin, Maurice and Andy - along with once being burned by hot water - has made him incredibly cautious. He told Piers Morgan's Life Stories:

"I avoid boiling water to this day. I avoid fire too. My sister caught fire once. That was terrifying so I am really aware of what those things can do."

"If I get near boiling water something happens and I have to back off. It isn't just age, anything can happen. So I don't do things like go on rollercoasters. I'm a safety-first type of person. I don't drive fast. I don't know why I am still here but I am very nervous about anything that could be fatal. That's all down to that accident."
