Who was uploading these videos? Keep reading for the unusual updates to this story.

Isn’t Waffler69 Dead?

As TV Shows Ace reported back in January of this year, TikTok user Waffler69 was found dead. Tragically, the 33-year-old was suspected to have passed away of a heart attack. He uploaded his final video just days before news of his death broke. In June of this year, however, his profile uploaded a new video. In the intro of the video, the later Waffler69’s brother made it clear from the beginning that he uploaded the video.

He shared that it was the final video his brother made. But, he didn’t get a chance to upload it before he passed away. The video was a promotion of a brand of condiments. Sadly, this video was how many learned that Waffler69 was no longer alive.

Resurfacing With New Videos Confuses Fans

In a surprising twist, new videos featuring Waffler69 have begun to surface on TikTok. The most recent video was uploaded just 24 hours ago and has fans of the TikTok star a bit confused. Who is uploading these videos? Upon closer inspection, it isn’t the official account of Taylor LeJeune uploading these videos. The account is named “Wafffler69.” While the account uses the same profile picture and has all of the same contact information in the bio, there is an extra “f” in the display name.

Sadly, it appears as if this is either a fan account uploading his old videos. Or, it is someone who created a dupe account in an effort to try to pretend to be him. While fans made it clear they were pretty confused by the videos, they were also oddly happy at the same time. Many admitted it brought them joy to see Waffler69 on their FYI again. Here are some of the comments fans left on the last few videos this account has uploaded:

  • “Who is posting these?”
  • “I just watched a video saying he died I’m confused are these old???”
  • “I miss himmmmm.”
  • “YOOO You’re Alive?” 
  • “I sure miss this dude. He made my day seeing his videos.”
  • “Seeing these videos again made my day.”
  • “Oh noooo What happened to him???”

Unfortunately, the dupe account looked so similar to the OG account that many believed it was really him. Tragically, this account also resulted in some people learning for the first time that he passed away at the beginning of the year. Overall, however, many just enjoyed seeing videos of him again. Even if they were old videos they had likely seen before.
