Maybe you consider yourself a popular person, even famous.You are an artist, musician, sportsman or you have some special ability that no one can imitate.Well, well, do not get on the vine so fast.on the Internet-is there anyone who has posted a tweet or a message on Facebook announcing your false death ? If the answer is no, then, friend, you're nobody.
They killed me, but I'm alive
The world of Internet has brought us a lot of curiosities and new routines, which, if they had told us a few years ago, would have made us laugh out loud.One of those "sports" that has become fashionable is announce on social networks that a popular character has passed away .If he is very famous or very controversial or something, better than better.No one knows very well how this snowball is created.
The thing is that the rumor is released, surely, by someone with a particular sense of humor or with an interest in promoting your website and then, you know: Have you heard that the news on the Internet runs How do you dust it? Nobody contrasts it or seeks confirmation .It is more interesting to click, share and retweet, that everyone finds out.Then, when it is announced that it was a lie, they all appear innocent.they were cheated.
Music from the grave

In this of people who have been killed on the Internet too There are levels, of course.Not everyone can be like Lady Gaga, who is killed more or less, once a year .Diva pop is current in each of its appearances and many pages and accounts on social networks they have earned a good “likes” after publishing the news of his death.In addition, he likes to invent rugged details that adorn the thing, as in the news that was published in December 2011, in which he assured that his body had been found in Tokyo and that not much information was known, but if he had tied the wrists and ankles, that is, a suicide or a sexual accident is implied but, on the other hand, he is not showing his face...The singer would also have "died" in May 2013 and April 2015.
When this type of event occurs, the reaction of the dead person is very important, because if you know how to do it with humor, that you have been killed on the Internet can become something even «beneficial», a sample of the type of person who is.Ricky Martin put everyone in his pocket (fans and non-fans) when he denied his death in January 2015 by posting some photos of his vacation. "Hello from heaven" was Martin's brief and blunt message , which appeared with a smile from side to side.Little had the rumors affected.
Spanish artists do not get rid of being killed online.In fact, there is a certain desire for some singers.This is the case of Melendi and the hashtag #DEPmelendi, which should seem very funny to some because they do not stop use it over and over again, even if it is just to "bug" fans.Up to this point the number of times has come to kill him that even the Civil Guard Twitter account has tried to mediate .
Nobody knows who starts #bits like #DEPmelendi but if you bounce them just fatten your ego and maybe spread #virus pic.twitter.com/pYYghS8bbY-Civil Guard (@guardiacivil) July 3, 2015
The actor who did not star in his own death
When a famous person dies, and another also, there is a strange fever that seeks to fulfill "the rule of three" that comes to say, summing up a lot, that artists die three by three.July 2009 we were experiencing a worldwide collapse because of the death of the pop king, Michael Jackson.In addition, on the same day, we also lost alangel of Charlie Farrah Fawcett.Well, that's when some began to say that actor Jeff Goldblum had died in New Zealand while filming a movie.But the really peculiar thing was what came next, Goldblum appeared on the show 'The Colbert Report' to explain that, obviously, he had not died.And when the presenter showed him a video with the news of his death, Goldblum used a superb sense of humor to affirm "Well, I'm really dead.I'm sorry I told you otherwise." .
Another one who has been killed a couple of times on the Internet is the actor Jackie Chan, who with his profession as an actor in action movies seems to lend himself to this kind of hoaxes.The commotion caused by his supposed death in 2011 caused that Chan himself published a denial in his Facebook account.And this type of information is very well worked, because even condolences of fellow professors or the president of the government were included.Last year, the same news: Chan had died of a heart attack and, without any shame, the same and exact condolences were mentioned again .And in February of this year, an accident in a shoot again caused hundreds of rumors.
Not even politicians get rid of
When you look for information about a fact, they often tell you «but don't trust Wikipedia».Well, Wikipedia is a page where many authors turn a healthy and commendable informative desire, but, of course, then there are cases like that of the alleged death of Aznar, where he sees quite bad milk on all four sides.In 2011, the English version of the website said that the former Spanish president had died.Not happy with that, they also commented that the death It had occurred in a traffic accident since he was driving after having consumed wine , in clear reference to the controversial statements of 2007, in which he questioned the DGT bells.
Surely, on the day that Fidel Castro dies, many will wait several hours to pronounce on the news, because there have been so many times that the Internet has killed the Cuban that it is difficult to believe and the official confirmation will be sought.The alleged death of Fidel , which we had last episode last year, also includes a peculiarity that makes the news more real and effective, as it usually provides body images , in a show of doubtful taste.
He's dead...he's already dead
We have left for the end a new type of fake on the Internet.If announcing the false death of someone already seems scabrous and twisted, pay attention to what happened to the mythical clown of the TV.October last year, the news that he had died jumped.The trending topic was swift and everyone regretted such a tragic loss.Until here everything normal, if not because Miliki died in 2012 and when this second death spread, three had already passed years .Anyway...
