[quote]It has come to our attention that a cherished and very talented member of the GTA community has tragically passed away. Fernando Agapito Jr. aka Yeardley Diamond was a YouTube creator who worked wonders with GTAIV PC to create some of the most memorable and beloved original machinima videos in the history of Grand Theft Auto fan videos. Many of you may fondly recall such classic videos of his as “Harlem Shake on Rockstar Games”, “Niko’s Yoga”, “Niko’s Dramatic Reaction” (to GTAV), “GTAIV Gangnam Style” and “Gentleman”.
Since Fernando’s brother Francis confirmed the news of his untimely passing on Facebook yesterday, outpourings of grief and eulogies have been shared at GTAForums, on Reddit, and by GTA fans across social media.
We at Rockstar Games send our sincerest condolences to the Agapito family, and all of Fernando’s friends and fellow fans. Rest in peace, Yeardley Diamond.[/quote]

Why do good men die?
[QUOTE=UntouchedShadow;45886818]Why do good men die?[/QUOTE]
Good men die to inspire others to become good men, and thus have an army of good men to thwart the bad men.
Wow... just.. man, rest in peace.

But if all the would-be good men see that all the actual good men are dying, wouldn't they rather be discouraged? You'd just have a bunch of bad men, and a bunch of neutral dudes.
It's really sad, I watched a lot of his GTA videos back then
He didn't even got to touch the PC version of GTAV :/
[QUOTE=UntouchedShadow;45886818]Why do good men die?[/QUOTE]
Because bad men kill them.
As unoriginal as his videos were, they were among the best well-made in GTA IV I know.
Rest in peace, it was way too early.
Damn, I just discovered his youtube channel Monday :(
RIP
The guy behind the Watch dogs mod posted a tribute in an update video for the mod. It should be noted that Diamond actually did work on the mod by coding the camera hack
