The man in the famous laughing meme, identified as Spanish comedian Juan Joya Borja (
pictured), is dead.
Juan, widely known by his nickname El Risitas, died aged 65 following what local media described as a sudden relapse in his health.
He died on Wednesday afternoon at the Virgen de Rocio University Hospital.
El Risitas, which in loose translation means giggles, became world-famous in 2014 when netizens started adding subtitles to a video of him laughing while co-hosting a show from 2007.
Speaking in the 2007 show, Juan was narrating how he once worked in a kitchen but the tide had washed away a pile of plates left overnight, only leaving one.
