This may be the weirdest thing to come out of 2019 so far but here it goes: local media are reporting that a genius, billionaire, philanthropist and playboy has died following a heart attack while undergoing a penis enlargement operation at a fancy Parisian clinic.
If you thought this billionaire is Tony Stark then you’d be wrong. It is in fact 65-year-old Belgian-Israeli diamond trader Ehud Arye Laniado.
Okay, I may have added in the genius philanthropist part to throw you off.
And besides, does Tony Stark look like the type of guy who needs penis enlargement surgery?
The answer is… maybe?
According to the local media (via news.com.au), Ehud was at a clinic on the Avenue des Champs-Elysees in Paris when he suffered complications during his penis enlargement surgery.
Specifically, he suffered a fatal heart attack when a substance was injected into his penis.
You wouldn’t be the first to think that this must be a made-up story but it definitely is real. In fact, his website and Facebook page confirm Ehud has passed away recently, though there’s no mention of penis enlargement surgery anywhere.
While Tony Stark made his name initially as a weapons dealer before pivoting towards the superhero trade, Ehud’s life was a bit more, uh, shady.
It is reported that Ehud’s fortune is a little difficult to get an exact number estimate on, which is unsurprising since he worked in the unsavoury diamond trade, and he got into some big trouble with authorities back in 2013 over tax evasion allegations.
There was also a little matter in 2015 (via The Irish Times) where Ehud and his company Omega Diamonds were pinged for money laundering, tax fraud, and blood diamond trafficking.
But perhaps the juiciest part from these reports is Ehud’s so-called Napoleon complex because of his short stature.
Apparently the guy was super obsessed with his appearance and “how others perceived him”, and the only time he forgot about his short height was getting his accountant to read out to him how much money he has, which he did “multiple times” a day.
And now we’ve come to the end of Ehud’s journey: a fatal heart attack after getting an enlargement injection of some sort into his junk.
There are a bunch of theories going around right now that Tony Stark will die in the upcoming Avengers: Endgame. If he does indeed die, he definitely ain’t topping Ehud in getting shuffled off this mortal coil.
