death is not the end especially if
you're a dead celebrity that never
really died in the first place let's
talk about that
[Music]
[Applause]
good mythical morning they say the only
certainties in life or death in taxes
but you know what you can go ahead and
cross death off that list because some
people that you think are dead aren't
really dead because this is the kind of
thing that happens I mean Olivia
newton-john's
ex-boyfriend faked his own death I'm
faking my own beard but today we're
gonna talk about some of the most
popular theories about celebrities
faking their own deaths it's time for
fake your death till you make your death
celebrity edition with probably the most
popular celebrity to have possibly faked
his death Elvis Presley the king of rock
and roll now you want Elvis to be alive
let's just go and wreck it right off the
bat I don't you were a big Elvis fan no
I wanted to be dead because he
supposedly died in on August 1977 I was
born in October 1977 so I hold a dream
you think you're reincarnated
reincarnated and if he's alive I'm not
him so don't tell me he's alive but he
might be let's talk about it okay he was
42 years old when he died cause of death
massive heart attack the rumor has it
that he was on the toilet even though I
think he was just in the bathroom
massive drug overdose also a massive
overdose of fried peanut butter banana
sandwiches those two things really
didn't do his body well had my first one
two weeks ago it was amazing really
don't even like a banana and Nutella I
did okay you're crazy all right why do
people think that he faked his death
because they wanted to be alive it's
that simple well one of the main
theories goes that it's not even a
theory it's just a fact on his tombstone
it says Elvis Aaron Presley but it's a a
Ron a a Ron two A's but he actually
spelled it with one a so of course
because they misspelled his middle name
he must still be alive well that's not
if that's not his name that's not him
I'm with you it just called a misprint
dude probably both keep switching back
and forth but all you don't believe that
the National Enquirer very reputable
source posted photos of Elvis's open
casket funeral they actually paid a
cousin to go in and take a snapshot
during the funeral and then they
released these it was a big deal when it
happened mm-hmm here it is
and a lot of people who think that he's
not dead say that is obviously a
wax figure that is not Elvis but I have
examined this black-and-white photo very
very closely my professional opinion is
that's probably Elvis it looks like a
really young Elvis which is weird to me
it doesn't look like the oh it's weird
to you well maybe he's not dead now he
has been seen by hundreds of people all
around the world and there is a really
interesting thing that happened did
supposedly the day after Elvis died a
man named John Burroughs appeared at the
Memphis Airport bought a one-way ticket
to Buenos Aires Argentina and he
reportedly looked and sounded just like
the king himself and John Burroughs was
the was the alias that Elvis allegedly
used when he would book hotels and when
communicating when the FBI remember that
when he used to communicate with them
yeah but I've heard about huh but I
think the best evidence for Elvis still
being around is this one video that we
have found oh and that is the fact that
he never left Graceland he actually just
stuck around and now he is trimming the
shrubs are you now is the groundskeeper
at Graceland and this is someone's Vince
Beauty Theory not really a conspiracy
theory and we have video evidence little
to show that here he is okay now you
tell me that's not Elvis are you talking
about the guy in the orange shirt who's
the only one on-screen because nothing
like a you know no I mean I know he
looks a lot like Kenny Rogers but a lot
of people think that this is Elvis he's
walking right towards it now watch what
happens now he's gonna confess what
happens with this left hand watch it
watch it watch it see that right there
that symbol you think he might just be
scratched crashing his temple oh look
he's got a freaking Elvis t-shirt on
what other chances why would you wear an
Elvis t-shirt if you're not Elvis so
anyway he might meet lots of people
think that this is Elvis because he
would be 81 kind of walks like Elvis got
an Elvis t-shirt and he did this symbol
with his finger what is that according
to the description in this YouTube video
is the proof of life signal what the
international sign of proof of life not
the international sign of I have an itch
on my head because okay yeah the guy's
alive but there's not the proof I'm
Elvis you just saw the king man okay
okay okay you don't believe it all right
maybe is I'm intrigued I'm not gonna
close the case on it can I can I open it
on Jim Morrison of course lead singer
the doors
lizard king himself born 1943 he is
currently 72 years old and is alive but
he supposedly died July 3rd 1971 at the
age of 27 supposedly had heart failure
and died in the bathtub of his Paris
apartment celebrities in their bathrooms
but here's the skinny man no autopsy was
performed no police report was filed it
huh he was put on ice for three days
then taken to the coroner only two
people ever saw the body his girlfriend
in a shady doctor named dr. max Vasi
Vasi
doctor maximum Vesey that sounds shady
yeah it sounds like a Bond villain it's
like something you get treated for yeah
if that seal is your man get a second
opinion but Jim had a motive okay get
this two years earlier he freaked out on
stage and whipped out a ding-a-ling Hey
he did I mean I write I've heard about
gonna die now and so he was out on bail
after it was purposeful he like what
song was he freaked out onstage I don't
know come on baby light my fire I don't
know okay but that's the one you know he
was facing jail time so he fled to Paris
when two years later he died so but he
didn't die where is he now theory one he
is a bearded poet living in Schenectady
New York sounds about right
youtuber name broken star has filmed
local man named Richard that's what he's
going by now since 2009 just watch watch
Jim Morrison right here here he is is
that him yep
looks like Santa Claus came in for
landing
Jim a ship down a road closed and simple
innocence revised and strode their
youthful exuberance he's a poet I just
like Jim Morrison what the Lizard King I
can say a poem to that doesn't make me
Jim Morrison can you say a poem as good
as skipped down a road clothed in simple
innocence we're wiser men strode in
their youthful exuberance take a share
in our heritage and grow from a seed
planted with the experience okay you're
right it is Jim Moore sorry but I'll
give you another theory too he is living
on a ranch in Eagle Point Oregon
Gerald Pitts who claimed to have been
Jim Morrison's agent said that Jim has
changed his name to William James lawyer
and he opened up a ranch called get this
the Jim Morrison sanctuary a little
creepy huh suspicious why would a guy
named why would Jim Morrison figure some
death into heaven gonna be real sneaky
I'm gonna open up the Jim Morrison
sanctuary and he can't hide look at this
video which puts all the puzzle pieces
together so what does William James
lawyer
aka Jim Morrison look like now there he
is Oh holding his guns but watch this
because it didn't look like Jim Morrison
the first time what wait yeah we got way
to look like Jim Moore is that creeping
in kit but here it comes that's Jim
Morrison a scum yep floating it and bam
there it is completely covering his face
no it's there man that is him same guy
the the proprietor of Jim Morrison's
sanctuary my friends is Jim Morrison how
long is it still under there is this
original face down there because if so
this is definitely believable to me me
too
got another one for you possible no
you're a big fan of Tupac Shakur I am he
is a rap artist who's still living he's
45 years old now if he's still alive
born in 1971
California love that he's saying that
yeah he was selling just like that here
goodness so okay let's just dishonored
him whether he's dead or alive he
supposedly died on September 7th 1996
when he was at a Mike Tyson Bruce Seldon
fight which I don't remember who Bruce
Seldon is that's because he got knocked
up by Mike Tyson you're probably right
and he was actually shot on September
7th he did not die and for seven more
days so that night after the fight he
gets in the car and a white Cadillac
pulls up next to Tupac and Suge Knight
and fires 14 rounds into the car pupok
was hit four times like I said he dies
seven days later but this is why it was
fake okay okay just think of these
things 14 shots were fired none of them
hit Suge Knight who's this big target
he's a big target a niche and a shady
character he would think he'd get hit at
least six or seven times a Tupac had
already been shot in 1994 so he reported
that he would always wear a bulletproof
vest after that yet he did not wear one
this particular night will come every
time I've pictured the Tupac he has a
shirt off not like just because like a
fantasy he has a bulletproof vest that
looks like a Tupac torso he has a
bandana and then he's shirtless that's
it that is a it's a torso oh that's did
I take everything back right no one saw
the shooting occur or reported seeing
the white Cadillac in the area even
though it happened on the Vegas strip
right after this major fight hmm
Suge Knight says he never saw the body
after he died well did Suge Knight see
him get shot and yes let's talk about
that he was right there and then Suge
paid someone to cremate Tupac and then
that guy retired immediately after
cremated Tupac that's just because he
was never you get a check after that you
get a huge check after cremating of
celebrities I'm going to Hawaii he's
never been seen the cremator of Tupac is
nowhere to be found man the cremator of
Tupac could be to vodka exactly yes yes
right now your honor yes okay I slice
two pucks last album released while he
was live he referred to himself as Mac
of
which is a direct reference to
Machiavelli 15th century Italian writer
who suggested that the only way to
defeat your enemies was to what fake
your own death case closed don't even
need to continue you should
so where is to park now you ask anywhere
he wants to be well he's in Cuba that's
where he wants to be he wants to escape
the limelight and the death threats of
his of his uh you know East Coast West
Coast beef mm-hmm and that's where he is
living with his aunt how do we know that
because Rihanna posted a picture from
Cuba of her with him here it is how
convinced are you 100% I thought so
and definitely no sense any Photoshop in
that picture no right around the mouth
region
yeah his mouth region in like her hair
region and also the fact that he still
looks exactly the same age that he was
when we knew him to be alive hmm but you
know what
I don't know Cuba is a great climate let
me great place there's a lot of humidity
let me give you another one
this is the real smoking gun the video
of Tupac appearing in the 2011 Occupy
Wall Street stand in well first of all I
could see you're on the steel right here
isn't that the wizard from Harry Potter
on the left
yeah that's Dumbledore and then but look
right behind him and let press play on
it brother cuz here he comes area to
park in the oh ho de yeah that's your
part and then it's been frozen and then
lo there's another before compare the
circle cheeks they are the same exactly
the same this is a de la memos YouTube
video and then you get oh no if you had
any doubt and then there you go I added
that oh gosh look at that when it's went
you know what I'm into pucks face for
places that other guy who's not to park
yeah so convincing right
she is also tube you put two puck over
that old white lady's face she looks
like Tupac exactly Tupac is everywhere
