Ethan Klein emotionally paid tribute to his friend Tree in a lengthy post on X. «I am in disbelief… I still hope this is part of an elaborate prank», - Klein began. «It seems like something he would do, right? But unfortunately, as much as I want to not believe it, my friend Oliver is gone».

«Oliver was such a unique soul, he had a gift that no one else had; to form genuine friendships all over the world, not just internet friendships for convenience», - Klein continued. «He spent the last year traveling the world, visiting places I would have never dreamed of. He wanted to learn about the world and all its people, all the different ways of life, to become an even deeper artist. I saw him evolve, grow, mature, and the essence of what he was gathering was clear: love, friendship, art. All that transcends borders and time. The last time we spoke, he was planning a trip to Antarctica».

Klein concluded: «I hope I can be more like Oliver Tree when I grow up. Safe travels, my friend. See you on the other side. Life goes on and on without you».
