People are stupid. Pure and simple. Take, for example, rumors circulating that Michael Jackson, like Tupac and Elvis, still walks among us. Why would people believe such an outlandish thing? Again: they're stupid. And then there's this...

YouTube user LosAngelesCot24 posted this video, his or her only upload, in which someone in a white shirt gets out of a coroner's van. And, according to the poster, the van has the same license plate as the one that transported the king of pop. It must be true!

As one friends said, "If Michael Jackon's was secretly still alive, do you think some asshole with a handy cam would be able to catch it?" And that's the truth!
