Keith Lee is definitely the most famous for this type of content, amassing over 17 million followers on the platform, but one of his biggest fellow creators is Marquay Collins, otherwise known as 'Marquay The Goat' across social media.

It was on November 26 that Marquay's family confirmed that he had died, although they are yet to reveal the reason for his passing, as reported by Dexerto.
"My heart is broken," wrote his mother Sonja on Facebook. "My baby, my last one, my SnuggaBug, my Marquay is no longer here with me. He was the sweetest person he didn't have a mean bone in his body.
"I needed him longer than God allowed me to have him. He spoiled me and his Dad, Elzie, he always said because we spoiled him. Thank you everone for your thoughts and prayers, enjoy the rest of your day."
According to reports from TMZ, Muscogee County Coroner Buddy Bryan believes that a recent car accident might have contributed to Marquay's death this week, as the TikToker alleged that a Tesla rammed into the back of his car on November 7.
Collins also noted in the days following the accident that he started to experience shoulder, spine, and neck pain, alongside headaches despite being released from hospital the same day as the accident.
This is merely speculation at this point though, as an investigation is still ongoing into the famous influencer's premature passing.
His final video, urging his followers to use lotion, has received over 9.1 million views in the two days since it was posted, any many people have shared their thoughts in the comments.
"Tell me it isn't true bro," wrote fellow creator KingRackbar, and Brandon Max, another influencer, added: "R.I.P Marquay! We miss you."
