I can’t get him back. … he’s passed out on the ground and I’ve tried to resuscitate him but he won’t come back,” the friend said. “Every time I do mouth to mouth, it’s like there’s something in his throat.

Dallas was reportedly discovered unconscious inside his Florida home shortly after midnight on Aug. 22. The friend who found him reportedly said Dallas had been taking insulin, according to TMZ, suggesting that Dallas may have collapsed due to a medical condition related to the medicine. Sadly, his friend’s efforts were in vain. The man known as “Big Country” was transported to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

He had a way with making people laugh!!”

The bodybuilding world mourned the loss of the amazing young talent, and a GoFundMe was organized by Dana, according to PEOPLE, to raise money for the Dallas McCarver Foundation, a nonprofit that raises funds for underprivileged children. “We are coming together to provide food, clothing, toiletries, books, and school supplies to those children who otherwise would go without. There are families struggling simply to make ends meet all over this country, and it’s our goal in Dallas’ honor to make sure that those children and families receive the support they desperately need!” The GoFundMe campaign raised more than $15,000 in less than 24-hours, proving that many were touched by this big man’s big heart.
