The pyro is Abe LincolnÂ

"There seems to be evidence that the Pyro may in fact be Abraham Lincoln, former president of the United States. The original Pyro of the BLU team in 1850 looks similar to Abraham Lincoln, and when Radigan Conagher built both Blutarch and Redmond Mann life-extending machines, apparently a third was built on April 14th for an unknown user. Abraham Lincoln was shot on April 14th, and supposedly died on the 15th, leaving the possibility that he did not die, and is using a life-extending machine to be the Pyro we all know today. However, the disproving factors are that he was shot in 1865, 29 years before the machines were built in 1894, and Lincoln seems to have gotten much shorter and gained some weight. "
