Also dead: Harrison Ford and Jeff Glodblum!!!
Er.... well, not quite.... 
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencete...-Goldblum.html
Meanwhile another web hoax triggered false reports that American actor Jeff Goldblum had also died in a tragic fall while filming a movie in New Zealand.
It was suggested that Harrison Ford, who was working with Goldblum on a movie called Morning Glory, may have also met an untimely demise.
Unfortunately, an Australian entertainment reporter Richard Wilkins relayed the news of Goldblum's supposed death on Channel Nine's Today show.
This caused a flurry of calls to New Zealand police forcing Inspector Kerry Watson to issue a statement: 'Police at Kerikeri are receiving phone calls regarding a person falling from a cliff at Kauri Cliff,' she said. 'There is no such incident and police have no information to provide'.
Despite this, the viral was picked up by Twitter and spread like wildfire. The internet rumour became so popular that actor Kevin Spacey felt obliged to check if it was true.
He wrote on his Twitter page: 'Jeff Goldblum is alive and well. I just spoke to his manager. Stop these stupid rumors.'
