Is it true that a resident of South Africa died after 62 masturbations in one day?

In May 2025, a message about the curious death of a young man from South Africa spread over the network. We checked the authenticity of this news.

In most fresh publications, it is reported that the man was 33 years old, and a photograph of several people who carry, presumably, a stretcher with his body is attached. However, on the Internet you can find more old posts, from which the reader finds out that the tragedy allegedly occurred on February 14, 2018 in Bloomfonttein. The name of the deceased is also named - David Mabuz. It is reported that on Valentine's Day, he fell into depression because of his loneliness and began to actively masturbate. The South African was found in his bedroom, and, as claimed, the man’s penis was disconnected from his body - he was so intensely engaged in self -satisfaction. Nevertheless, the cause of the death of Mabuza is a heart attack.

The news was most widespread in Telegram, where in 2025 it was published by channels "Ax+"(1.8 million views at the time of writing this analysis),"Rhymes and Panchi"(179 000), Voblya (138 000) "Ether 18+"(122 000),"Leprosy"(109,000) and others.

The first question that could arise with those who learned about this story - how does it know how many acts of masturbation made Mabuz if there was nobody next to him at the time of death? The number itself is also doubtful - officially registered world records for the number of orgasms are not in men per day, but, judging by some publications, an indicator of 62 acts of masturbation for 24 hours several years ago could claim unofficial championship.

The statement about the full separation of the penis from the body looks no less incredible. During intensive masturbation, a man can earn Rupture of the bridle penis, burn from friction, at worst - even fracture (extremely rare). However, to tear off the penis in self -satisfaction, even if you set such a goal, the task is difficult to become a matter, and such cases are not described in the medical literature. As for the risk of heart attack, naturally, sexual activity, like any physical activity, Reflected At blood pressure and heart rate, and this to some extent affects the probability of an attack, especially in people with a weak heart. Doctors Fixed The case of a stroke in a resident of Japan who actively practiced masturbation.

There are no publications about the case with Mabuza in reputable South African sources, but are found on the sites of some Gan And Pakistani Media. Both of them refer to a certain edition of NUSA, releasing news on nusa.site. In South Africa, the letter of Nusa is known primarily as the abbreviation of the name of the local union of ethnic Nigerians (with a completely different site). The publication with this name is not mentioned on local resources, and the specified domain is free today.

Nevertheless, several copies of the main page have been preserved on the Internet Archive nusa.sitemade in 2018. As can be seen from the cap, the name of the site is deciphered as News Updates South Africa, and below there is a link to the resource group on Facebook - at that time popular (54,000 likes), but now also remote. Preserved in the archive and article About Mabuza - however, does not tell any additional details.

On the main page of nusa.site, on January 22, 2018, immediately under the name of the portal, it is indicated: "We share political humor ... day and night."

Indeed, some other headlines make it clear that many publications on the site should not be taken seriously. Among them statements, attributed President South Africa Jaycobe Zuma, who resigned one day with the death of David Mabuza: “The whites hate me, they destroyed my life” and “I promise that the South Africans will not go to heaven after they did with me.” Of course, both statements are invented. By the way, a person by name David Mabuza He became Vice President of South Africa after the departure of Zuma, which suggests the political nature of the satirical note about masturbation. A few months earlier nusa.site mentioned On one of the local resources in the list of South African sources of fake news.

Thus, an article about the death of a 33-year-old South African after 62 acts of masturbation invented, and the site published in 2018 did not hide the satirical orientation of its notes. Nevertheless, the news was actively distributed in Russian -speaking and English -speaking publics. In May 2025, a surge in interest in this case in Runet occurred after fasting in the Telegram channel "The goat screamed"(82,000 views, 2700 reposts), the author of which referred to the recent publication On one Sudanese entertainment page on Facebook.
