Wardy was only 45-years old when he died of a heart attack on December 11, 2016. It was there Wardy was approached and made a life for himself in porn. He started working in the industry by chance after spending much of his time hanging out at sex clubs and parties in San Francisco, where he was a ‘bull’, a dom who would have consensual sex with women in front of their partners – essentially cuckolding the men. Wardy had worked in the adult industry featuring in gay porn for some time prior to his tragic death. The image in question was taken in 2011 by Pantheon Productions owner Walter Smith for a gay porn site. This had resulted in Wood becoming the unwitting star of thousands upon thousands of ‘bait-and-switch’ prank texts but those close to Wood hadn’t realised the image had made a resurgence once again in light of the coronavirus.

Heather revealed that she was all too familiar with the well-endowed photo and said it had been doing the meme rounds for years since appearing on sites such as 4chan and Reddit in 2012 just a year after Wardy’s death. Vice were able to get in contact with Wardy’s former girlfriend, Heather Alegria who revealed more on the man behind the memes. Real name Wardy Joubert III but better known as ‘Wood’ – the nickname given to him as a kid playing baseball he was born on August 30, 1971, in San Francisco.

Since going into virality, Vice sought to find the man to talk to him about his sudden cult status during this time of crisis – only to discover he had died several years ago from a heart attack despite otherwise being as ‘healthy as a horse’.
