Jonas Neubauer (April 19, 1981 – January 5, 2021) was an American Tetris player, seven-time champion at the Classic Tetris World Championship, and taproom manager.
In June 2018, Neubauer set a (then) high-score world record of 1,245,200 points.
On January 5, 2021, Neubauer died at age 39 due to a sudden medical emergency, from which he had collapsed and never regained consciousness. His death was announced four days later on all of his social media pages. On April 2, 2021, the cause of death was diagnosed as “sudden cardiac death due to cardiac arrhythmia of undetermined [cause]”. For the 2021 event, the Classic Tetris World Championship trophy was renamed the Jonas Neubauer Trophy, and redesigned as a golden J-tetromino (representing “J” for “Jonas”). – Available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License from Wikipedia.
