Listen up, buttercup. Stephen Hawking was a super-smart dude who, ya know, kicked the bucket. The 'joke' is just stating the obvious, but it's funny 'cause it's so blunt and kinda morbid. It's like saying water is wet – duh! But some people find humor in dark stuff. And you're one of them because you're chuckling at the Grim Reaper's door.
