A 24-year-old extreme eater, who gained fame on TikTok, died due to complications from obesity, according to a report.
Efecan Kultur, 24, well known in his native Turkey for his ‘mukbang’ streams, in which he would gorge on massive amounts of food — died on Mar. 7 after spending three months in the hospital due to obesity-related health problems, according to Turkiye Today, citing a post on TikTok.
Amassing both a mammoth weight and following, with millions of views on TikTok, Kultur was forced to stop streaming due to being bed-ridden with health issues, such as bruising and breathing difficulties.
Kultur last posted on YouTube eight months ago and his TikTok feed featured its last mukbang on Oct. 15, with the streamer announcing in the video that he was eschewing extra salt because he was on a diet.

Please log in and verify your age to view this post. Why?
Looking at this kind of article, and it's not the first time, we really should ask ourselves why.
Why? Chasing clout chase until no life.
Chasing for likes and followers to earn money but then no life left to live and use the money. Worse still if you're not even earning much and all just to stoke the desire for validation and through fame. What's the point?
Obesity is one thing, but when you're motivated by followers, motivated by clout, motivated by your "personal branding" as a mukbang streamer, what do you get out of it?
It's not even rocket science, your body gives you signs and symptoms you go over bored. Choosing to ignore is always a conscious decision.
