Shangay is reporting that veteran porn actor Macanao Torres died on December 29, 2019. The site is saying that the 35-year-old threw himself off the roof of his apartment building in Murcia, Spain around 8pm.
The actor boasted a 10-year career in the industry. During his time as a performer he was featured in scenes from studios and sites like Treasure Island Media, HardKinks, Kristen Bjorn, Reddix, and Cazzo. He was even nominated for Best Porn Star at the 2012 Cybersocket Web Awards.

In 2016 he retired from the industry and released a statement through Twitter and Instagram. He wrote (via Google translate):
I have decided to retire today from the porn industry, 10 years after starting in this world, degeneration in all aspects pushes me to withdraw in a common sense! Soon I will give more explanations in the corresponding press interview, for now I would like to thank all the fans for these ten years and wish my friends, friends and all the people in this world good luck, I have made this decision after meditating for quite some time, I have a hard time doing it but it is necessary for many things and I think it is time to close the stage of my life! Also tell you that I don’t abandon you at all! I will keep putting things around here, and I’m going to make a scene in that year, because although I have retired, I want to do it seems like a good idea and I can do it because it’s me, and I’m special. For now I leave a picture of my first movie, when I started being almost a child and a picture of the last one that surrounds this summer, in which it is clear that I am a man-child, !! hugs kisses and thank you all!

Torres later revealed that he left the industry after being diagnosed with rare form of lymphoma.
“I was detected a multi-centric B cell lymphoma, very strange, of which little is known,” he told Shangay in 2016. “They gave me the definitive leave at work and an absolute disability. I spend seasons that I am fine, but every two by three I have scares: the fever rises, the tumor markers … Now they have given me a life expectancy of ten years.”
