Generated The TikTok Image of this pig\/human eventually killed by Tim Cheese.\u201d None of the contestants buzzed in. The correct response was \u201cWho is John Pork?\u201d<\/p>\n After reading the clue, Jennings said, \u201cI didn\u2019t understand any of that,\u201d which made the contestants laugh.<\/p>\n John Pork is a viral internet figure who is a pig-like human hybrid. The digitally created image of the creator is a man\u2019s body with a pig\u2019s head. TikTok users jokingly said he had \u201cdied,\u201d which sparked the \u201cRIP John Pork\u201d trend online.

John, I hope you\u2019ll forgive me and all of us at Jeopardy!<\/em> for any insult we may have committed against you or your memory.\u201d<\/p>\n Fans were confused that Jennings said \u201cthe late Mr. Pork,\u201d since the creator isn\u2019t dead.<\/p>\n \u201cNo way.
