Original Post, 5/5: Sweet, whimsical Canadian Ryan Gosling finally ate his cereal Monday, which, if you're familiar with the internet, is the equivalent of a 21-gun salute.
Scottish Vine mastermind Ryan McHenry, who created the meme Ryan Gosling Won't Eat His Cereal, died from bone cancer Sunday. In 2013, he posted a clip from Drive in which Gosling recoils from a spoon held up to the screen and quickly became a Web celebrity for the irreverent video.
Gosling uploaded his tribute to McHenry on Monday, accompanied by a touching tweet.
A fundraising page has been set up in McHenry's memory, with all proceeds going toward medical research.
