Zach Braff Isn't Dead, Uses YouTube to Kill Internet Rumor [Video]

Apparently prankster Chris Laganella (who has since apologized), thought a web page spoof that he created back in 2007 about Braff being dead would go unnoticed by all but his friends.

Yesterday, quite the opposite happened, and the Twittersphere randomly blew up with tweets that recirculated the rumor to trending status for most of the day. The rumor made such an online stir that Braff himself took to YouTube to create a hilarious video confirming that he is, in fact, alive.

Zach Braff opens the video saying, "I'm alive." He then goes on to poke fun at his own sitcom, Scrubs, laughs at the fact that his "I'm alive" post didn't get that many likes on Facebook, and also humorously draws attention to the glaring inaccuracies of the celebrity death rumor. In one of his funnier quips, Braff refutes the claim that he was found dead in a 32,000 square foot estate by saying, "Look, I'm not Oprah, that's a big ass house."

All in all the video is quite hysterical. We especially like the douchebag of the day award Braff doles out to Laganella at the 1:45 mark. But, we won't spoil the whole video for you, check it out for yourself below.
