Queen Elizabeth jokes about her Death in resurfaced David Attenborough clip

"I Won't Be Here, Though," Queen Elizabeth II said while discussing Climate Change in 2018.

Avideo of Queen Elizabeth II joking about her own death has gone viral following her passing.

In the resurfaced clip from 2018—which has garnered more than 3.2 million views on Twitter—the late monarch showed off her sharp sense of humor while chatting with Sir David Attenborough for the ITV documentary, The Queen's Green Planet.

As the pair discussed how climate change will affect trees over the next 50 years, the queen cheekily responded: "I won't be here, though," which prompted a chuckle from Attenborough, 96.

The English broadcaster then pointed out a sundial on the property, which was in the shade.

"Isn't it good, yes," the queen sarcastically responded, before looking around and asking: "Had we thought of that? It wasn't in the shade originally, I'm sure?"

The royal then got serious and said: "Maybe we could move it."

Queen Elizabeth died on Thursday, September 8, at the age of 96 after reigning for more than 70 years. Following her death, Buckingham Palace released a statement to the public.

"The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon," the message read. "The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow."

The following day, Attenborough discussed his relationship with the queen, noting she was "an expert at getting people to relax."

"When you met her, you were well-aware that you were in the presence of someone who was extremely important to our society, and yet she made it seem that you were meeting another human being with exactly the same conditions that all human beings have," he told ITV News.

Queen Elizabeth and Attenborough's friendship spans decades. In fact, they were born just weeks apart. While the queen was born on April 21, 1926, he was born on May 8 that same year.

In 1985, the author was knighted by the monarch, and in 2022, he was knighted again by Prince Charles, now King Charles III, for his work in television and conservation.
