The image has become a viral internet sensation. Whole Twitter threads were created to share the memes inspired by the man and his member.
According to TMZ, blogs have are even selling his likeness on t-shirts.
Unfortunately, the owner of the appendage is no longer around to reap the benefits of his current popularity.
