Zach Braff, Kanye Aren't the Only Celebs Still Alive

Celebrity deaths can be tragic.

Or they can be tragically ridiculous.

Thanks to the Interwebs, fake celebrity deaths have been running rampant. Kanye West supposedly lost his life in a car crash this week, while Zach Braff recently had to create a video to prove he was still kicking despite tales of a fatal pill-popping episode.

And by now we know that any star rumored to have fallen off a cliff in New Zealand is more likely to have slipped into an Internet hoax. The Kauri Cliffs have supposedly taken Natalie Portman, Jeff Goldblum, Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks from us.

Some have died at the hands of Twitter and Wikipedia, while others have met dramatic driving demises. Needless to say, not all false death alarms were created equal. Some are definitely more believable than others.
