Hello everyone. We have some very important and tragic news regarding Cyndago and our future.

It is with heavy hearts that we inform you that Daniel was found in his room on the afternoon of September 16th in critical condition after an apparent suicide attempt. He was rushed to the emergency room and transferred to the intensive care unit. Family was notified and flew to Los Angeles to be by his side. Doctors confirmed that he had suffered irreversible brain damage and would not survive.

He was taken off of life support on Friday, September 18th, 2015.
Surrounded by his family, Daniel passed away in peace.

We would like to announce that Cyndago will no longer carry forward. We have no plans to release any further videos, podcasts, or songs. We will release one final vlog addressing the current situation.

If anyone out there experiences suicidal thoughts or is battling anxiety/depression, we urge you, please seek help. You are worth more than you think, and suicide reaps massive effects upon everyone around you - your friends, your family, and everyone's life who you touched. There is always hope. There is always tomorrow.

We would like to thank everyone who stood with us throughout the years. When Cyndago was started in 2012, we never expected to come this far. It's been nothing short of an amazing journey and all of you are loved. You have all changed our lives and we hope that we could make each one of you smile. We're truly sorry that a story that brought so many people happiness had to have such a sad ending. Daniel will live on in our hearts and in the memories of the thousands of people he brought joy to everyday through YouTube. We thank you all. Goodbye.

- Ryan & Matt

A message from Daniel's father:

My wife's, his 18 year old sister's and my heart will never mend. We'll never know why this happened. Things were really starting to gel after the short seven months Daniel moved from our home in South Carolina to LA to pursue his dreams thanks to you and the opportunity afforded by Mark Fischbach.

On Wednesday September 16th I sent Daniel a text telling him how excited I was for him that things are really looking good with the Markiplier / Cyndago collaboration, the other Cyndago activities and the music he was writing with his guitar (Daniel was a great guitar player). I ended the text asking him "Are you happy?". I never heard back. An hour later I received a call from an LA ambulance asking me if I am the father of Daniel Kyre.

We sincerely thank you and Mark for the support and opportunities you gave Daniel. Everyone that came in contact with him loved him and was awed with his multiple talents. Our lives will never be the same. The world will never be the same.

- David Kyre


If you haven't heard of Cyndago, it's possible you most likely know them from Markiplier. they were closely associated with him, and they did a lot of sketches with him and helped him with editing a lot of videos.

I know most people aren't really going to be affected by this, but I really wanted to share this out somewhere. I started bawling my eyes out when I heard this news. Cyndago was one of the many YouTube channels that I constantly turned to whenever I was upset or had a bad day, and to see something this terrible happen to such an entertaining group just breaks my heart.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Daniel's family, friends, and fans. The world lost a really entertaining man. RIP Daniel.

Don't know the people and this is the first I have heard of the channel, but my condolences to his friends and family. And since you seem upset with the situation, pankakesparx, I hope you can come to terms with it and handle this development.

I mentioned this in Personal Thoughts. I discovered Cyndago through Markiplier, and I was glad I did because they're such an amazing group of people who are good at what they do. I was devastated at Daniel's suicide, and still am. I feel terrible that this has happened. Despite this, I understand why they are taking down the channel. I can only imagine how hard it would be to make content without Daniel. Rest in peace. I want to continue to support Markiplier and Cyndago through this time.
