Is Connor Murphy dead? Truth behind viral death rumours as no official confirmation emerges

On Tuesday social media kinda erupted with people saying that bodybuilder and influencer Connor Murphy has passed away.

Still as of today there is no real confirmation not from his family not from his representatives. So it’s hard to say what’s true even if the rumor spread fast and you see all those posts everywhere.

The claim started from a post on BowTied Biohacker’s X account the one run by an anonymous creator connected to the BoTied Biohacking collective.

That collective shares news and updates about bodybuilding, nutrition and supplements in general. After that some other accounts then said that he died by drowning while he was in Thailand.

"RIP Connor Murphy. Thank you for all the laughs and top tier schizo posts," the X account wrote.

“You were a lot smarter than people realized. Enjoy some real Divine Protein Shakes up there king.”

Murphy who now has more than 300,000 followers just on Instagram alone rose to fame back in 2016 with his fake shirt trick. Even while those death rumors kept going around his social media is still showing that he uploaded a reel four days ago where he did this little skit.
