The YouTube star P2istheName's cause of death has been revealed nearly three months after he was found dead in Los Angeles at just 26

EXCLUSIVE: YouTube Star P2istheName's Shocking Cause of Death Revealed - And It's NOT What You Expected!

It's been nearly three months since YouTube sensation P2istheName (real name Philip Enewally) was found dead in his Los Angeles apartment at just 26. But the mystery surrounding his untimely demise has finally been solved, and it's a jaw-dropping revelation that will leave you stunned.

According to the County of Los Angeles Medical Examiner's latest report, P2istheName's cause of death was not some tragic accident or overdose - but rather natural causes. Specifically, he died from sudden cardiac dysfunction, also known as sudden cardiac arrest. And get this - it was caused by a rare condition called solitary papillary muscle hypertrophy, which is a subtype of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (a.k.a. the "athletes' heart" disorder).

The Medical Examiner also listed 'solitary papillary muscle hypertrophy' as the cause of his sudden cardiac arrest

But here's the kicker: P2istheName's sudden cardiac arrest was so severe that even the paramedics who responded to his collapse were unable to revive him. He was pronounced dead at 3:11 p.m. PT - a devastating blow to his four million subscribers and fans worldwide.

Now, you might be wondering what this means for the YouTube community. Well, let's just say it's a sobering reminder that even the most seemingly healthy young adults can fall victim to cardiac arrest. In fact, according to the Mayo Clinic, sudden cardiac dysfunction is one of the leading causes of deaths worldwide - and it's often characterized by an irregular heart rhythm that can lead to unconsciousness and even death.

But P2istheName's untimely passing has also sparked a wave of tributes and condolences from fellow YouTubers and fans. COLETHEMAN, a popular gamer and streamer, took to social media to pay his respects: "My good friend @P2istheName has passed away… wow. I’m honestly at a loss for words. He was always so kind to me and gave me so much content creation advice. May he rest in peace."

The condition is a 'subtype of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which is a risk factor for a sudden fatal cardiac event'

Meanwhile, fans are still reeling from the shock of P2istheName's sudden departure. One wrote on Twitter: "This man was my childhood, I still can't believe it's real. May he rest in peace." Another fan shared: "Never been touched by a celebrity's death like this one." And yet another simply posted: "RIP to a YouTube legend."

So what was P2istheName up to before his tragic passing? Well, according to his last few YouTube uploads, the 26-year-old had big plans - including a move from Los Angeles to Atlanta. In fact, he'd already started wrapping up his LA-based projects and was gearing up for a new chapter in his life.

But P2istheName's creative output didn't stop at YouTube. He also found success with his clothing brand, DontMindUs - a venture that showcased his entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to creating something from scratch. In many of his final uploads, he was seen personally packaging and shipping out merchandise to fans, who loved him for his authenticity and generosity.

A full medical examiner's report will be released at an unspecified future date

As we bid farewell to this talented young star, it's clear that P2istheName left an indelible mark on the YouTube community. May his legacy continue to inspire and entertain us all - even in the face of tragedy and loss.

P2istheName was discovered in the mail room of his apartment building after collapsing. According to the press release, paramedics were unable to revive him and pronounced him dead at 3:11 p.m. PT
