Eddie Murphy The actor is the latest to be involved in an online hoax.
Eddie Murphy has become the latest big-named star to be the subject of an internet death hoax.
Despite recent reports, 50 year old Murphy is still alive and well and did not perish in a snowboarding accident.
The hoaxers are not exactly original, as the same cause of death was stated on a similar hoax claim about the star back in 2010.
Murphy’s representative said, "Trust me, Eddie is very much alive and well and definitely not in Switzerland snowboarding."
Other celebs to have recently been caught up in celebrity death hoaxes have included Jon Bon Jovi, Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Bacon, who all seem to have taken up the very terminal pastime of snowboarding. Or not, as the case may be.
