The news about a man named Alexander, who allegedly was found alive in a coffin at the Sochi cemetery, turned out to be a fake. This writes "Sochistrim."

According to journalists, on June 20, a video with an emaciated man, whose body was covered with scabs, began to spread through messengers among the residents of Sochi. He called himself Alexander. The video was followed by an audio file commentary: “It was upstairs in Baranovka, in the cemetery, when the rain was recently - 2-3 days ago, the ground was washed away. And the coffin came out alone. And in that tomb was a living man. " The same video was published on Pikabu on June 19 and scored a little over a thousand likes.

The authorities of the Baranovsky rural district in Sochi have denied the information about the discovery of a body in a cemetery. However, a few days later, a number of media outlets published the news that the hero of the video had survived after spending a month in a bear den. The publications referred to the news agency EurAsia Daily, which published a material about a man on June 25 with reference to the testimony of unnamed eyewitnesses.

According to the agency, Alexander is a resident of Tuva who was the victim of an attack by a bear who dragged him into his den. EA Daily writes that the man’s spine was broken, and it was found by local hunters who were helped by dogs.

The next day, June 26, foreign media such as Metro, Daily Mail and Sun wrote about Alexander who was rescued from his den . In the Daily Mail, details were added that a man drank his own urine to survive. The publication also contained a comment by Russian scientist Ivan Seredkin , who claimed that bears often hide their prey in order to protect it from predators.

According to IT expert Mikhail Golubev, with whom he talked with Sochistrim, such a fake can be launched with three goals: to distract people from another topic, to play the rest, or to test the channels of viral information.
