Guess I'll Die is a meme representing an old man from a stock photo taken by iStock. It was shot and uploaded by AnnBaldwin, the daughter of the old man. She and her father never knew that this photo will be a big deal in the near future of taking that photo.

THE HERO BEHIND THE MEME

The old man from the meme is actually a chemistry and biochemistry professor, a retired professor. His name is Mike Baldwin, a 77-year-old. He's now an icon for giving up and surrendering to the reality.
