Honestly, both brothers were able to die. I would really wanted me to die with Daimon, and Elena's memories were erased. She would have returned to ordinary life and forgot that we generally existed. I think that such a finale would be very good,
- Actor confessed.
As you know - carefully, Spoiler - the series ended on the fact that Stefan sacrificed himself for the sake of salvation of his brother, so that he could lead with Elena a simple human life.
And yet I would be happy if Damon died. I really asked for him such fate. He did a lot bad and deserved death,

However, no persuasion could change the already written script. The entire plot of the "Vampire Diaries" was kept on the ever-changing relationships of two brothers. Yen Somerhalder repeatedly joked that the most important love line in the series is the connection of Damon and Stephen. So for all it was logical that one brother sacrifices for the other.
We add that Paul Wesley assured that under no circumstances would return to the role of Stephen in the Spin-Off the "Vampire Diaries" "Heritage". The actor dislarously referred to the fact that his character was "too dead."
