Morgan Spurlock, Supersize Me Filmmaker, Dies at 53 

Dude was a health class icon

RIP Morgan. The age of 53 is young. What a crying shame! 😢

The discourse surrounding his alcoholism on Twitter was so random.

Played his documentary in pe and gave us free time thank you 🙏

Man! I remember watching Super Size Me in 9th Grade in English Class. Thanks you for good memories!

I will miss him😢 I remember his documentary from high school

RIP, His documentary was great and taught a lot of people to be healthier. He was a great man.

He died? 😮 First heard of Morgan Spurlock in my first year of college back in 2005. My colleagues and I began to rethink ourselves about McDonalds after seeing that documentary of his. Thanks for sharing that experience, Spurlock man. Peace. Since then, I’ve undergone a personal health change in the last year alone. I was 214 lbs in 2023, but then in 2024. I lost 28 lbs in a year with daily jogging an hour a day five days a week. 🏃 I won’t go back to those old habits again.

I remember watching Supersize Me in high school and I actually watched it again about 2-3 months ago and I was just as shocked (and sickened haha) as I was the first time. It was an amazing documentary and it is a classic at this point! R.I.P. Morgan Spurlock. You will always be a part of history as an amazing documentarian 👏🏾🥹 Prayers going out to his family and friends 🙏🏾💙

He was an alcoholic, hence the bad liver which he blamed on Mc Donald’s

I remember watching Supersize Me way back in my 7th grade health class. In fact, I'm pretty sure his documentary was one of the reasons why I started eating healthier in my teenage years! RIP, Mr. Spurlock. Thank you for teaching us the importance of eating healthy.

I remember in middle school we would watch his documentary during rainy days. Provided a lot of memories for my classmates and I, along with why we should not consume fast food so often. Rest in Peace.

May you greatly Rest In Peace Brother. I was grateful to have watched the documentary back in 2004 at home. The good times, always cherish Life & Happy folks

I was at a park in West Virginia years ago, waiting for my kids to ride a pony, when I realized Morgan Spurlock was standing right beside me with his wife and young son. I recognized him right away from Super Size Me, which I enjoyed and had a big effect on my eating habits. I had also just seen a sign at the park for a Spurlock family reunion, so I knew it was him! I didn’t ask him for his autograph or anything, though, because he was having fun with his family and I didn’t want to bother him, but we all chatted briefly-just normal conversation between regular people. He seemed very down to earth and easygoing. My condolences to his family. May he rest in peace. ❤️

R.I.P ,..we watched u in school and you made alot of us see how them cutting corners is killing us..thank you.

Oh, no. R.I.P. Morgan Spurlock. Thanks for the great documentaries. 🕊🕊🕊

Thank you for the documentary you made on behalf of all of us

RIP to a man that has opened my eyes and shined the light on Health for me

Starting now, I’m going to watch the entire super size me duology in honor of him.

WHAT, I LITERALLY JUST WATCHED THE MOVIE LAST WEEK FOR THE FIRST TIME

How sad 53 isn't really that old rest in peace.

Thank you for the documentary

Watched this movie so many times in health class.... RIP man 🙏

I remember where and when I saw Super Size Me back in 2004. I remember how anxious I was to see the film, because I was a fast-food junkie. The movie opened my eyes to the lies and the power that fast-food wields over the public. The man single-handedly made a multi-billions dollar company, like McDonalds, to remove "super-size" from their menu options. Goes to show how much of a difference a single human being can make. R.I.P., Morgan !

now do a story on that guy that eats 2 big macs a day. he's 70 and has consumed 34,000 big macs in his life

Oh no this guy seemed like such a good man. I didn’t even know him and I’ll never forget him. I can just imagine the impact he made on the people in his life. Rest is piece brother

You did such a profound and beautiful thing for humanity Morgan with your documentary. I am sorry you left this world the way you did.

I just watched a RU-vid debunk video by “Weird History Food”!

Such a sad loss

I remember him from the movie super size me

R.I.P Morgan Spurlock. I've watch your documentary so many times in school, and I still remember it.

This man single-handedly changed the worlds view on fast food, I will never forget watching supersize me in shock, disgust, and hunger. He brought awareness to everyone who watched and I will never forget how school lunches were impacted forever after his documentary aired. Rest in peace sir!

Rip you will forever be remembered 😢

RIP Morgan. 53 is quite a young age to die. It’s a shame that he passed.😢❤

A creative genius who came up with the idea : what if I ate McDonalds for a month and filmed myself doing it. Truly a revolutionary

My Sociology teacher would always play his “30 Days” series for our lessons. I really enjoyed them. May he rest easy.

I can’t bear to watch supersize me anymore when I found out about Morgan’s passing as a young man.

WHO REMEMBERS HIS FILM FROM HIGH SCHOOL!

I watched Super Size Me in middle school. Thanks for the memories!

He came to my university when Supersize Me had just come out. He was so kind at the screening. 😔

Thank you for the memories. Rip Morgan Spurlock!!!

I watched the documentary years ago. Sad he passed so young

He was such a good, nice person. Whenever I saw him I thought, "good person". I send you love, Morgan.

I remember watching SSM back in middle school. RIP

I remember seeing this guy and his movie "SUPER SIZE ME" in cooking class at my middle school in 2004. Which unfortunately lead to becoming anorexia shortly after. I used to eat Mc Donald's as a young kid almost all the time and after watching his film. I have never gone back. Sad that he's passed on and sad he died of cancer which I think may have been from making his film. Thanks for the memories Mr. Spurlock. My condolences to his family!

I am 45 now but i cant i believe i watched his movie in 2003!

So sad. Not only did Morgan enlighten us all of the woes of McDonald’s, but he also was a fellow West Virginian. RIP Morgan - so sorry you left us so young.

RIP he showed us that constant fast food can be too much fast food. The process he put himself through is just bravery itself and that his work on the topic of fast food shouldn't be forgotten.

watched this guy in class may he rest in peace

Thats so sad, he died so young as well. Only 53

So sorry, condolences to the family.

what a legend supersize me changed a lot of peoples lives rip

9th grade health class was lit thanks to you, Morgan. Gone way too soon! 🕊️

I rewatched this documentary yesterday!

RIP bro, your films helped me during my divorce. You'll be dearly missed

R.I.P. Morgan Spurlock, who produced one of the best documentaries ever.

Rest In peace legend. I remember watching his documentary in high school

Well, I was a huge fan of supersize me. I have watched the movie over 10 times. R.I.P. Morgan Spurlock.

His parents outlived him let that sink in.

Supersize me is u ironically one of my favorite documentaries of all time. RIP Morgan.

Had some fast food today in his memory. Rest well, man.😭🙏

So young. 😢

Pls come back 😢

So sad we grew up watching this film, I'm praying for his family!

He was my ex boss's client and friend and I worked on his PR for "Supersize Me" as well, when I got there as one of my first jobs. He was a great guy, from what it seemed. RIP Morgan.

I remember watching this documentary in the school. RIP.

RIP. Your documentary made me see fast food in a way I never imagined.

Damn use to watch him in elementary school, good times. Rest in peace legend 🙏🕊️! You'll be missed!

The fact that in my school we watch that documentary every single year

I remember watching Supersize me back in school. Can’t recall if it was high school or middle school. Rest in peace, man.

Kids born in late 90s and early 2000s have remembered watching his documentary in either Gym or Health class. Me personally, I’ve seen Super Size Me twice in gym class back in Middle and high school.

RIP I watched the film years ago! Rest easy

RIP sir i remember watching this in school

Rip Morgan my man 5th grade we watched this 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Rest in peace.

Say what you want about him but he was a very honest person and faced his demons and publicly announced his faults in tweets when he didn't have to.. Look it up...his interviews about his chicken fried restaurant. Rip to a documentary legend.

May he Rest Eternally In Peace

This man was our childhood growing up in high school

I don't see any value in his documentary due to the fact that it wasn't as honest as it made itself to be, no thanks to him being an alcoholic

Much love

R.I.P

I remember watching super size me in my gym class, RIP Morgan ❤

Thank you for being part of our childhood memories in our schools years we all miss you rest peacefully

He becomes a icon for the documentary film, super size me. We lost to our good legend who have died by cancer. 😭

Thats such a shame i lovd watch super size me😢😢😢😢😢

Rest in peace ❤❤❤

RIP Sir, you will be missed ❤

I remember seeing that film Super Size Me since I used to watch it back when I was in school many years ago.

Was literally just talking about supersize me with a co worker (who went to the same school I did, and saw the documentary as often as I did) the other night at work!! Supersize me was an icon of a film. He was a daredevil. Nobody told him to go eat only McDonald's for that long lol everything he did it was his cause. Rip legends never die😭

Damn! This sucks! God bless his soul.

I'll always remember getting to watch this in Science class. This, and episodes of CSI. I went to an inner city school, you see. Supersize Me was one of those icons of its time. Like The Da Vinci Code.

Just saw the second film in Health Class not to long ago. RIP Morgan

*R.I.P. Morgan Spurlock*

I remember watching the documentary in middle school. Sad he died so young

I remember watching the film in school. He’s the same age as my mom. RIP

This is the best anti-McDonalds ad I have ever seen. He for sure took one for the team.

Fly high my guy. 🕊

Fly high 🕊️

I was litterally just watching a video about discrediting him the other day. Dispite how he went about it, it did get people talking about America's obesity crisis and fast food corporations contribution to the problem. Sad to hear. RIP

Sympathies to his family and friends. Praying for them.
