By now, virtually everyone on the planet has been bombarded with information about Michael Jackson’s infamous life and death. However, if you have been paying close enough attention, you will have noticed many inconsistencies in what has been reported; both by those close to him and the media. Indeed, immediately following the reported death of the King of Pop, many of his closest friends, family members, and business associates began to make statements that he had been in an extremely frail state for weeks leading up to his death. Many of these people described him as virtually emaciated, unable to stand and barely able to speak. Indeed, if they were to be believed, Jackson was a virtual shell of his former self when he died.

Those statements were taken to be factual initially. I mean, why would the people close to Michael Jackson lie about the state of his health? I personally can’t think of a single good reason, especially after he had already passed away. Unfortunately, their stories were proven to be not just false but complete fabrications with the release of the recorded footage of his last rehearsal for his planned comeback concert tour. In fact, the footage (recorded about 36 hours prior to the super star’s death) showed a vibrant, spry, seemingly health Michael Jackson who was dancing and singing in his trademark fashion. Indeed, despite the fact that he is vigorously performing, he doesn’t even seem to get winded during the minute of rehearsal footage that has been released for public view.

Pretty spectacular behavior for someone who people have reported to have been virtually bed ridden during the time in which the video was recorded.

This clear and erroneous contradiction between what was reported and the facts really lead people to wonder two things. 1.) Why the lies? 2.) If they lied about this, what else did they lie about?
These are two questions that diehard Jackson fans and conspiracy theorist alike are desperately trying to dig up the answers to. Unfortunately, those close to the tragic star are not really talking. Or at least, most of them are not.

Lou Ferrigno, Jackson’s personal trainer for his scheduled comeback tour, spoke quite openly during a recent interview with Good Day LA about Michael’s bizarre penchant for playing pranks on the paparazzi. In particular, he recalls Michael describing an incident in which he placed a mannequin of himself in an ambulance to throw the paparazzi off his tail. Indeed. Maybe, just maybe Michael Jackson’s recent death is not at all what it seems. Indeed, maybe it was simply the mother of all hoaxes. Only time will tell.
