According to friends and neighbors, the TikTok content creator known as “KingBeardX,” who amassed 2.5 million fans with his tight-angle photos and outrageous humor, passed away last week in Mississippi.
The self-described “funniest dude on the Internet,” John E. Crawley, was 47 years old.

According to Glenfield Funeral Home, Crawley passed away on Monday at North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo.
The balding, bearded Crawley combined comedy elements that were reminiscent of Ralphie May’s puns, Sam Kinison’s loud declarations, and Jerry Seinfeld’s everyday observations.

A recurring theme in Crawley’s writing was food. In a recent article, Crawley ridiculed the idea of a “medium rare chicken sandwich” while clumsily stumbling over the word “salmonella.”

Recently, Crawley made fun of a culinary influencer who was attempting to demonstrate to viewers the “proper way to eat a cinnamon roll” by humorously struggling with a multi-consonant term.
“That is some off-ass information about the cinnamon roll and I don’t appreciate it!” Crawley screamed. “You”re going to have all these bougies-ass children walking around eating cinnamon rolls the wrong way!”
The story is still evolving. For updates, please return.
