Colombian artist Yeison Jimenez, an icon of the popular music genre, had publicly shared in multiple interviews a series of premonitory dreams related to a fatal plane accident, weeks before his death. He predicted his death.
On Jan. 10, 2026, the singer lost his life in the crash of a small aircraft in which he was traveling from Paipa, Boyaca, to Medellin, where he had work commitments in Marinilla, Antioquia. His account of these visions not only shocked his followers but, in light of the events, has now taken on a deeply unsettling dimension.
Yeison Jimenez spoke in interviews about dreams that predicted his death
During appearances on media platforms such as the podcast Los Hombres Si Lloran, hosted by Juan Pablo Raba, and the television program Se Dice de Mi, Jimenez spoke in detail about these dreams. In May of the previous year, according to his own account, he began to repeatedly dream about a plane accident involving a mechanical failure. With striking clarity, he described what he saw in those visions: mechanical malfunctions, desperation inside the cabin, and the feared impact against a mountain.
“May arrives, and I start dreaming about something very delicate, and that is that we were going to have an accident. … I saw it three times,” he said on the podcast, recalling how the dreams kept repeating themselves, always with the same disturbing scenario.
In another interview, Jimenez went deeper into the content of those dreams: “Three times I dreamed that we were going to have a plane accident and that I had to tell the pilot to turn around … and when he came back he would tell me, ‘Hey boss, good thing you told me because something failed, but I already fixed it, get on.’”
The artist did not see these dreams as isolated images, but rather interpreted them as divine warnings. “God gave me three signs. … I ignored the signs, and it happened,” he reflected with visible emotion, referring to what he believed were messages he did not know — or was unable — to heed.

A real experience that intensified his fears
Not everything was the product of dreams. Jimenez also lived through a real in-flight emergency that, according to him, reinforced his sense of warning.
On one occasion, he recounted that he nearly suffered an accident when a small plane he was traveling in lost power in one of its engines. He explained that the brief duration of that flight, “we were in the air for 3 minutes and 30 seconds. … It was a very critical situation.” That incident had a profound emotional impact on him, even leading him into a state of deep sadness.
“I would go into the shower and say, ‘My God, I almost left,’ and I would cry,” he confessed, describing how that experience blended with his visions and heightened his anxiety about what he felt was a prewritten destiny.

On Jan. 10, 2026, the worst of those premonitions came true. The small aircraft in which Jimenez was traveling, along with four members of his team, crashed in an accident that claimed the lives of everyone on board. The tragedy, which occurred that afternoon, shocked public opinion and sparked debate on social media about premonitory experiences and how people interpret signs in moments of uncertainty.
Jimenez’s statements — many of them delivered in an emotional and reflective tone — now carry a chilling resonance. His story joins those of other public figures who have spoken about premonitory dreams before real-life tragedies, raising questions about how the human mind confronts fear, faith, and uncertainty in the face of the unknown.
What many once viewed as expressions of anxiety or spiritual interpretation ultimately became a warning that destiny confirmed in a tragic way.
