South Africa rugby union player Bryan Habana has taken to social media to dismiss reports he was killed in Paris.
The 33-year-old posted a video on Twitter to reassure fans that he is alive and "doing well" after it was claimed he had been shot dead in Paris.
Rumours of Habana's death began circulating after Houstonchronicle-TV.com reported the 2007 World Cup winner had been killed by an "unknown gunman" and found dead in a "pool of blood, strangled to death".
The website, which has no connection with the official website of the daily Texan newspaper houstonchronicle.com, also claims the Queen has banned the Premier League and that Usain Bolt has retired.
Habana, however, was quick to put the record straight.
"Hello guys, Bryan Habana here, just checking in with you all," he said in a video.
"Apparently there is a massive rumour or false story going around that I've been killed.
"But as you can see I'm all alive, I'm doing well and enjoying the south of France.
"So yeah, all good, it's actually unbelievably disturbing that people can do stuff like that which has a massive impact on people's lives.
"So thank you too all of you that have been concerned, but as you can see I'm doing well. All the best, go well, bye!"
