Ok so whats the deal with Gackt and death? I heard like he almost drowned when he was a little kid or had some other life threatening experience and now he sees ghosts. Is this true?

Alright,
Yes. Gackt talks in his autobiography about his near death experience as a child, nearly drowning. He also talks later of other near death dexperiences, or moments when he probably should have died but didn't, such as a car crash.
Gackt does claim to be able to see ghosts, or those who have passed on. Of course no one can ever prove his claims. We can't see through his eyes.

Yeah I read his autobio too. Quite amusing. As Odrah stated, hes had SEVERAL lucky scrapes where he made it out safe and sound.
Like the time he almost drowned again in Okinawa (he was trying to get rid of his fear of the ocean after his near-drowning experience as a child ) and was saved by a sudden urge to go have sex xDDDDD dude that was great.

I'll allow this topic to stay open longer to futher answer Tada kun's question ^^. I do remember reading a translation of said article on a Mizer fan site a LONG time ago like back in 2001. He did talk about being 416 years old and how he is haunted by ghoasts and death and things. My personal opinion: it's a part of his act. But that's just an opinion, not a fact.

Gackt is 30 years old.
But yeah, the entire age thing was a publicity stunt. Hey, It worked didn't it?! XD

I didn't figure it out. He's 30 or... 31 since his last birthday in July. (If July 4th really IS his birthday, this I do not know xD)
I don't know exactly how the info got out, but I believe he admited it on his last birthday but it wasn't nationaly published. I can't look up the exact information now because my main source is in recovery these days.
But even if you didn't know that, it would be obvious through reading the Autobiography that he wasn't as old as he originaly said XD XD XD
Anyway.....

Good! So they do have it up somewhere. I've read through this version and aside from little translation notes that are going to be unique to everyone it's basically right on! So yes... EVERYONE go and read it. To learn more about this man... this man of mystery.
