Thanks to the internet rumours and myths come quicker than adolescent in a room full of Page 3 models. One of my favourites from years gone past was that Jim Morrison is still alive and kicking.
Myths: Jim Morrison is alive and someone else’s body is in his grave.
Facts: Some people still don’t believe that Morrison’s body is the one buried in his grave in a Paris cemetery. The official cause of Morrison’s was listed as a heart attack (believed by many to have been drug related) in 1971. One enterprising gentleman has even produced a video that he claims is Morrison living the life of a cowboy in the Pacific Northwest. People who have seen the video say the man in it bears no resemblance whatsoever to Morrison, and other than the fact that many of his song lyrics had mystical themes, there is no evidence to suggest that his death was faked.What I say: Complete and utter rhubarb.
