Supposedly, Usain is in a critical condition in a London hospital. \u00a0The report features a photograph depicting a mangled BMW on a roadway.<\/p>\n<p>However, the claims in the report are untrue. Usain Bolt has not been involved in a serious car accident \u00a0and he is not in a London hospital. There are no credible news articles that support the claims in the story in any way.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the bogus report comes from a fake-news website called &#8220;NetLiveMedia&#8221;. The site specialises in churning out sensationalised \u00a0and mostly made up nonsense that it presents in news format, apparently for the purpose of attracting more visitors and shares and thereby generating more revenue for the site owners. The site \u00a0does not include any disclaimer that might alert readers that its articles are not real news.<\/p>\n<p>The car accident image used in the fake article has been <a title=\"Car Accident: BMW X5 tear to pieces (photos)\" href=\"https:\/\/autoworld.wordpress.com\/2009\/11\/04\/car-accident-bmw-x5-tear-to-pieces-photos\/\">circulating in other contexts<\/a> since at least 2009. The vehicle has no connection to Usain Bolt.<\/p>\n<p>Given the number of nonsensical stories disguised as news that circulate online, it is always a <a title=\"Identifying Fake-News Articles and Websites\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hoax-slayer.com\/identifying-fake-news-articles.shtml\">good idea to verify<\/a> any <a title=\"Don't Get Caught by Celebrity Death Hoaxes and Scams\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hoax-slayer.com\/guide-to-celebrity-death-hoaxes-scams.shtml\">celebrity death \u00a0or accident reports<\/a> that come your way before you share them. Searching an online news portal such as Google News will usually reveal if a circulating celebrity death or injury report is true.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, if a high-profile person such as Usain Bolt was really involved in a serious accident, news of the event would be covered extensively by mainstream news outlets around the world.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- HS Net Bottom AdLinks --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0355887770822260\" data-ad-slot=\"1358951439\" data-ad-format=\"link\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p class=\"date\">Last updated: October 17, 2016<br \/>\nFirst published: October 17, 2016<br \/>\nBy Brett M.
