Huh... I never questioned the rumour that an actor died in the production of Ben Hur. For all those who I shared that information with, it turns out to be FALSE. All of the death scenes in the chariot race scene were cleverly used dummies and no one actually died

Oh snopes, whatever would we do without you.

Ahahaha, oh man, I think you put those phrases in the wrong order, because it sounds like we all know and love a fatal chariot crash rather than a version of Ben Hur. Then again it might just be me, because I also read it as "most of the injuries incurred in that movie were sideburns." Ouch.

I feel like everything you have ever said, up until now, has been a lie. In fact, how can I know that this post is, itself, not a lie?
