Dead Celebrities That Are Now Alive

reply to post by Donkey_Dean


I don't know why but this thread really just made me think of that woman in Independence day for some reason lol "Oh god, I hope they bring back Elvis!"

I just experienced one of these yesterday.

I distinctly remember years ago hearing that the 90's singer Gerardo who made the awful song Rico Suave had died. It was one of those pretty surprising things because he was so young and in shape. How he died in the news story I hear, I don't remember. But, yesterday I was watching one of those VH1 clip shows about the biggest "one-hit-wonders" of the 1990's and they included Rico Suave in the list. I was quite surprised when they then interviewed a somewhat older Gerardo (this show was apparently produced this year), and explained that he is now working as an A&R man for one of the record labels and is still recording and performing but has switched to doing Christian music.

Could be faulty memory, could have been a false report, could be my consciousness slipped between universes.

ok .. just found this on ABC.. just for the record..

Notable deaths in 2011 / 2010

Word of Eagleburger's death Saturday, June 4, 2011 came from representatives of former President George H.W. Bush and former Secretary of State James Baker.

Eagleburger, who was 80, was a straightforward diplomat whose exuberant style masked a hard-driving commitment to solving foreign policy problems.

I remember hearing that Don Rickles died, but turns out he is still alive and kicking (and insulting).

Looks like there is a website that chronicles dead and alive celebs: www.deadoraliveinfo.com...

No, the most logical explanation is that you were simply wrong.

So many people are saying that they KNOW that Billy Graham died years ago, yet he is still alive now, so it must have been a mass time slip.

No, other famous preachers, such as Oral Roberts, HAVE died, and are going to stay dead, and Billy Graham has had health issues which forced him to give up his full time ministry. You didn't exhibit time traveling super powers, you just got the facts screwed up in your head.

People got the reverend Billy Graham confused with the Rock Promoter Bill Graham. Bill died in 1991. I'm surprised people are still getting this mixed up in this internet day-n-age.

Don't know if it was answered for you or not, but it was Owen Hart, Brett's little brother that died! Then Brett quit WWE for the way they handled it or something! Not a real wrestling fan anymore, but I did remember the Hart Bros. and their tag team matches when I was a wee lad! RIP Owen Hart!

He was in the news a while ago for some reason, and I turned to my husband and said "but he died a few years ago" he just looked blankly at me, but I clearly remember seeing the footage on TV and they just kept playing parts from the show so there was no mistake who they were talking about. There were big headlines, like 'Child Actor Gary Coleman dead at 32' or something.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately, but can't find anyone else that remembers him dying.

I also remember Nelson Mandela and Billy Graham. What the hell is going on?

I thought he did die..Gary Coleman...sure I saw that on the news or HLN (if you want to call that news), and his wife was there when he died..he fell down some stairs. Thought there was even a small investigation of her actions, concerning it.

Just checked..he is dead..died in 2010

Brett quit because Vince Mcmahon screwed him over, Bretts contract was voided basically because vince said he couldn't afford it, so Brett went to WCW but asked to win in Montreal (it was somewhere in Canada I forget where) and vince agreed but during the match vince and possibly shawn michaels were in on it and vince basically shawn had brett in a boston crab or maybe the sharp shooter and vince told the ref to ring the bell and brett lost. Vince basically screwed Brett

if you read the other thread (link on first page of this thread) one of the posters tells a story of his dead grandmother alive after dying for a day, then being dead again the following day, so it's not just celebs.

reply to post by abe froman


I tried to find that grandmother link but could not. I think this happens to all types of people and even animals it is just that celebs are well know but a very large number of people so it stands out more when it happens to them but I do believe it can happen to any one

I believe that people had posted on here about Gary Coleman's death before he actually had died. This thread has been around for a while.

In 1991 I was watching a talk show on cable...(sorry..I don't remember which one) and they had this person on who claimed that Elvis Presley was really alive and living in a small town in Canada. Allegedly he had prepared ahead of time in the event that he wanted to retire from fame.....it was all planned....he lives with a different name etc....(of course). During the taping of this show....this woman talked to (supposedly the former Elvis)...I have to admit it did sound like him.

Since that show...I have often wondered....even if this Elvis story isn't true....could it be true for other former famous people...who just could not handle the fame anymore.

FoxNews is reporting that Obama is in fact alive... just in case anyone gets mixed up about that later. The reports of his death were a hoax...

Hello... I am very interested in multiple timeline type of stuff so I do indeed remember George Wendt as being dead... Also I found it odd that Discovery Kids was playing episodes of Binni The Jungle Girl (my neice's kid watches it) and Steve Irwin was on the show...

BINDI is his daughter, he appeared on the show all the time before he died, I think you saw a repeat

Hi I dont know if this is anything to do with what you are talking about. I have been getting these feeling and putting it down to thinking i was going crazy. Something has had me thinking for years I can remember being a kid about 7 and watching a film that was being released and thought it looked good but knew it was too old for me to watch it was the first Austin Powers. I remember the 60s clothing and colours but i also remember going to see it when i was about 12 and thinking this took along time to come out.

you guys just mis remembered

I don't recall anything about wendt or graham

is it just me or does anyone know anything about Tommy LaSorta? , wasnt he a baseball coach or something , and Remember he was a pitchman for SLIM-FAST?? Remember ? did a diet strictly of choco'flavored SLIM-FAST do him in, or is he still alive?, , and if so, hows that SLIM-FAST treatin ya?

MEEEEE 2!

It's been a while since I've been through this thread, so all apologies if this has been posited before. I've heard a lot of suggestions as to why some of us have these deep-seated memories of specific events from the past that never happened - poor memory recall, time-travel screwing up the past, the LHC opening wormholes or whatever... I was thinking of another 'what if?' scenario - what if those of us with these alternate memories are simply being toyed with / experimented on by TPTB using some kind of 'false memory' generator, kind of like Blade Runner, I guess.. It would make sense to do it on a large enough scale that enough people would notice it - using famous people/celebrities, recent historic events, or a prominent location on the map (Australia). The question would be 'to what end?' but I'm sure you could come up with dozens of possibilities - gaslighting (making us think we're crazy in order to control us...and then Big Pharma to the rescue!); causing those who claim these memories to be labeled 'ridiculous' and not taken seriously in other areas; generating fear that something BIG is going on though we'll never be able to adequately prove it and will be further ridiculed... I can think of so many ways it could be done without us realizing it, especially if it targets only the susceptible - meds, chemicals in the foods we eat, suggestion via media... Crazy, yeah..? But as the saying goes, "Just because you're paranoid......."
