Youtuber Technoblade dies at 23 from cancer, Twitter pays tribute
Technoblade was a prominent figure on YouTube, especially for Minecraft players, where he made his name and is known for his level of play and optimism. Almost 11 million subscribers followed him on YouTube to watch his videos assiduously.
Aware of the risk of not prevailing against the disease, Technoblade prepared for his exit. In his latest video, "so long nerds", he asks his father to read a message to his community, the first few words of which are "if you're watching this video, I'm dead". The YouTuber gives himself up to his community one last time and thanks his viewers for their support.

Technoblade qui vient de perdre sa bataille contre le cancer, qui laisse une dernière vidéo qui commence par "si vous regardez cette vidéo c'est que je suis déjà mort" et qui sort un T-shirt posthume qui dit GGEZ c'est un tel flex. Repose en paix espèce de phénoménal Chad pic.twitter.com/SKR1BHLqz0

"Technoblade who just lost his battle with cancer, who leaves a last video that starts with "if you're watching this video I'm already dead" and who puts out a posthumous T-shirt that says GGEZ he's such a flex. Rest in peace you phenomenal Chad" Here is the translation of this spine-chilling French tweet. In addition to the video, Technoblade wanted to make a final gesture by offering his fans a Gg Ez t-shirt on his shop, as a final mark of his distance from the situation, a "flex" worthy of the character. Part of the profits will be donated to CureSarcoma, an organisation that aims to fight sarcoma.
