Tiktok’s content creator John E. Crawley, known by millions as “Kingbeardx”, died Monday at the North Mississippi Medical Center after being hospitalized with respiratory problems. He was 47 years old.
The sad news of his death was announced by his friend and former coanfrerion of the podcast Anthony Caruso, friend of Crawley and former co -elbers of podcast in a gofundme.
“I am very sorry to tell all the bad news, but Pimpmunkx (Kingbeardx) died yesterday,” Caruso wrote on August 19. “Thanks to all those who have supported the collection of funds so far.”
“His mother says he told me to thank everyone,” he added. “The fund collector will continue to support the collection of funds from a funeral/helping John’s mother.”
According to Nypost, Crawley went to the North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo, Mississippi, earlier this month because he was fighting to breathe.
Crawley’s condition was “quite unstable”, according to the fund collection page, and was then placed in the ICU.
Crawley’s family asked Caruso to help them launch a fundraising to raise money for the medical invoices of the Tiktok star because he had no health insurance.
“John is the main support of his family, and unfortunately, he has no medical insurance,” Caruso explained approximately two weeks before Crawley’s impressive death. “His condition is quite unstable, and we are all worried about him.”

The news of Crawley’s death caused thousands of tributes in the social networks of fans and fellow creators who praised their unique brand of daily observational comedy delivered with high -energy pronouncements and house shots.
