Connor Murphy's friends were planning an intervention before his death
In a conversation with TMZ, Connor Murphy's friend got candid about his behaviour leading up to his death. The YouTuber's close friend, Tony Huge, reflected on their friend group's concern over the late looksmaxxer's bizarre behaviour. He revealed that they tried contacting his family just one day before he died. The fitness influencer's former roommate and close friend told the news outlet that Connor's "weird" behaviour led him and other friends to attempt to contact Connor's family to stage an intervention.
Tony revealed that they felt an intervention was what they needed to get the "old" Connor back. The fitness influencer's friend recalled that they were unable to reach anyone in Connor Murphy's family, and the very next day the terrible incident took place, leading to the Looksmaxxer's tragic death. Tony, who is also a fitness guru, was very close to Connor.
Talking to the media outlet, Tony Huge explained Connor often acted as a "character" version of himself to create his crazy stunts and pranks for social media. However, there was an issue with his approach. Tony revealed that Connor began keeping the character's mask on and would switch to his "normal" self only when he urged him to. He recalled how he tried his best to be a guiding light for Connor, but he had only so much authority over him.
He revealed that he never thought death would be the outcome of his over-the-top escapades. Tony Huge expressed immense heartbreak over the death of his friend, Connor Murphy. As we reported, the fitness influencer-turned-looksmaxxer died in Thailand on Tuesday, July 7, 2026 (ET) after he drowned in a local lake. He did so after fleeing from police, who were called due to concerning public behaviour.
Did Connor Murphy use Ayahuasca or liquid gold?
According to a previous conversation with TMZ, Tony Hugh revealed that the late influencer had been injecting liquid gold as a part of his "looksmaxxing" journey. He stated that Connor believed the injections would improve his physical appearance, including making him look healthier, increasing his energy levels and allegedly giving him 'superhuman' abilities.
On the other hand, Andrew Tate took to his X account to comment on Connor Murphy's death and urged people to "believe in Ayahuasca". He alleged that he had spoken with the influencer before his death. According to Andrew, Connor had been dealing with mental health issues and was no longer the same person after travelling to Peru and taking the psychedelic brew.
Andrew Tate went on to claim that Murphy "lost his sanity" after the experience. For the unversed, Connor rose to fame on YouTube, where he posted bodybuilding and fitness content mixed with pranks. More recently, he transitioned into looksmaxxing content and continued creating over-the-top videos.
