Wesley Warren Jr., the man who became popular after going public with a medical condition that made his scrotum swell to 45 kilograms has died.
Wesley passed away at the age of 49 on Friday at a Las Vegas hospital.
Though no cause of death was officially announced, his roommate, Joey Hurtado said he didn't believe that his friend's testicle removal surgery last year was a factor in the death.
According to Joey, Wesley had suufered two heart attacks recently and was in the hospital for five and a half weeks.
"He had infections that I think were brought on by his diabetes and then he had those heart attacks," Joey said.
Wesley gained fame after a public appeal to raise $1 million need for surgery on his enlarged scrotum, which he said had first become enlarged in May 2008, after he suffered an injury on his right testicle.
