The death hoax surrounding Bryan Silva, the popular Vine video poster, still hasn’t gone away.

A “satire” website, Huzlers.com, posted a death hoax about Silva earlier this month, saying that he was shot and killed.

But users on Twitter and Facebook are still claiming he died, with some fake “Breaking News” and “TMZ” accounts re-posting the article.

Silva posted two Vine videos on Monday and Tuesday, including one claiming he’ll put “hollow tips on your dinner plate.”
