No Evidence Costa Titch Died Suddenly From Vaccine SADS!

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Costa Titch Collapsed Twice On Stage

Costa Titch (born Constantinos Tsobanoglou on January 26, 1995) was a South African Amapiano rapper and dancer, who released his debut album Made In Africa in 2020 to critical and commercial success.

On Saturday, 11 March 2023, Costa Titch was performing at the Ultra South Africa music festival in Johannesburg, when he reached out to one of his backup singers, before falling to the ground.

He quickly got back up, and finished his song, but then stopped and fell again, this time off the stage. In another viral video, he appears to be twitching from seizures on the floor below, and was quickly carried away.

His team and first responders tried to resuscitate him, but they were unable to save him. Costa Titch was 28 years old when he died.

Fact #2 : Costa Titch’s Cause Of Death Was Not Revealed

Costa Titch’s family released a statement on Instagram, confirming his death, and thanking first responders.. However, they did not reveal his cause of death.

If they believed that the COVID-19 vaccines caused his death, they would have said so. But they notably did not mention the COVID-19 vaccine as his cause of death.

Death has tragically knocked at our door.

Robbing us of our beloved son, brother and grandson, Constantinos Tsobanoglou (28), who South Africa had come to love and idolize under his stage name “Costa Titch”. It is with deep pain that we find ourselves having to acknowledge his passing at this time.

We are thankful for the emergency responders and all those present in his last hours on this earth. As a family we are faced with a difficult time as we try to make sense of what has befallen us and ask that we be afforded the time and space to gather ourselves.

The Tsobanoglou family thanks you for the love and support you have given to our son and may you continue to uplift him even in spirit. Please keep us in your prayers and uplifted in the Lord.

Why did Costa Titch collapse + died suddenly on stage?! 🤔

Fact #3 : Autopsy Was Performed On Costa Titch

The local police said that Costa Titch’s cause of death will be determined by a post-mortem examination – an autopsy, following an inquest into his sudden death.

We can confirm that the police in SAPS Booysen have registered a case of inquest following the death of 28-year-old Mr Costa Tsobanoglou on 12 March 2023.

It is reported that Tsobanoglou collapsed while he was performing at the Ultra South Africa concert at Nasrec.

Until the police and/or his family decides to reveal the autopsy results, it would be wrong for anyone to claim that Costa Titch died from any particular cause.

Fact #4 : Unknown If Costa Titch Has Epilepsy

Many websites have speculated that Costa Titch may have suffered a seizure triggered by flashing lights at the concert, and claimed that the rapper was known to suffer from epilepsy. Some even “diagnosed” his death as caused by Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP).

While SUDEP is real, it is not well-understood. It is certainly not possible to diagnose SUDEP from video clips, even though Costa Titch appeared to be having a seizure on those videos.

In the meantime, some websites say that his family has allegedly refuted claims that Costa Titch has a history of epilepsy. Unfortunately, that claim is not backed by an actual statement by the family.

So it is possible that Costa Titch suffered a seizure on stage, it is currently unknown if he has a history of epilepsy. It is certainly not know if he suffered SUDEP, or may have been fatally injured falling off the stage, or died from some other cause.

Fact #5 : Unknown If Costa Titch Was Vaccinated Against COVID-19

It is currently unknown if Costa Titch was vaccinated against COVID-19, as he has never publicly mentioned her vaccination status. There is certainly no evidence he was triple-vaccinated against COVID-19.

For all we know – he may not even be vaccinated! The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in South Africa. In fact, less than half of its population (just 46%) received a single dose of any COVID-19 vaccine!

Until and unless his family reveals his COVID-19 vaccination status, anyone who claims that Costa Titch received the COVID-19 vaccine is likely lying to you.

Fact #6 : Claims Of Celebrities Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

So far, claims of sudden deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance. Here is the latest dozen of other false sudden death claims!

Will these anti-vaccination activists apologise for lying to you? Nope! They will just move on to the next celebrity tragedy…

Fact Check : Babo The Amazing Blind Figure Skater!

Claim : Babo Becomes A Figure Skater After Becoming Blind!

A video has gone viral on WhatsApp, and social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, showing a pair of male and female dancers, together with these descriptions:

👆This is not one of the ice skating videos.

It’s one of the most amazing performance in the history of skating, which brought tears to the 10,000 spectators present.

Babo, the male dancer, has been blind since childhood. In a fire accident, his mother held him tightly in her arms and jumped from the 7th floor. His mother died, the little Babo became blind due to hemorrhage in his eyes and survived multiple bone fracture.

His mother was an ice skater and Babo inherited that gene. Although he couldn’t see anything, he still pursued his passion enthusiastically.

Here he is doing the famous tango “La Cumparsita” with his partner at the World Figure Skating Championships in Helsinki!👆

His ears could measure the surrounding sound and distance like a bat. His female dancing partner is equally amazing. She danced with him so elegantly giving the sense of orientation and movements to her partner as if through telepathy so that even the most difficult synchronised movements kept perfect rhythm.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

这是场被称为美国精神的惊艳表演，男舞者Babo从小双目失明，因家中一场大火。母亲为了保护他，把他紧紧抱在怀里从7楼跳下，导致母亲丧生，小babo双目失明。

女舞者非常了不起，长期陪他跳舞及带领他，有谁想到在他身上有22处骨折，凭着惊人毅力，他练就比正常人还要优异的动作，令人叹为观止。

This is a stunning performance known as the American spirit. The male dancer Babo was blind in both eyes due to a fire in his home. In order to protect him, his mother hugged him tightly and jumped from the 7th floor, resulting in the death of his mother and the blindness of little Babo.

The female dancer is amazing. She danced with him and led him for a long time. Who would have thought that he had 22 fractures on his body. With amazing perseverance, he practiced better movements than normal people, which is amazing.

Truth : That Is Not Babo, And He Is Not A Blind Figure Skater!

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS circulating on WhatsApp and social media platforms, and here are there reasons why, and what we know about the video…

Fact #1 : Video Was Recorded In 2017

While many people think that this is a recent video, the video was actually recorded at the 2017 International Skating Union (ISU) World Figure Skating Championship, that was held in Helsinki, Finland.

The original video is very long – lasting almost 4 hours. The video clip that went viral on WhatsApp and social media, was edited from this video, starting at the 02:03:28 mark.

Fact #2 : Video Shows Russian Ice Dancers

The video does not show a blind American dancer called Babo, and his female partner. It shows Russian ice dancers Ivan Bukin, and Alexandra Stepanova.

While Ivan Bukin (born Ivan Andreyevich Bukin on 16 September 1993) closed his eyes for a moment before they started skating, he is not blind.

Just in case you are wondering – Alexandra Stepanova (born Alexandra Nikolayevna Stepanova on 19 August 1995) is also not blind.

Fact #3 : Ivan Bukin’s Mother Did Not Die In A Fire

Ivan Bukin is the son of 1988 Olympic ice dancing champion Andrei Bukin, and ice dancer Elena Vasiuk.

Elena Vasiuk did not die in a fire when Ivan Bukin was a child. No one jumped from the 7th floor of any building in a fire, at least not in his family!

In July 2018, Bukin mentioned that both of his parents came to watch him dance to a new Tango Romantica dance routine. So we know that his parents are still alive and well in 2018.

Is This President Macron Dancing With His Wife 30 Years Ago?!

Claim : This Was President Macron With His Dancing Teacher / Wife 30 Years Ago!

People are sharing this video which claims to show a young Emmanuel Macron dancing with his teacher, who would end up becoming his current wife, Brigette Macron.

This is a 30 year old Television clip. This video is interesting not only because of the dance sequence, but because, this young boy is the current president of France, & the Lady dancer, his teacher …. is his current wife …Interesting!!! Isn’t it? 🤷‍🤷‍♀ 🤷‍🤷‍♀ 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Truth : That Was Not President Macron With His Dancing Teacher / Wife!

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS circulating on WhatsApp and social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Brigitte Did Not Teach Macron Dancing

Brigitte Auzière (born Brigitte Marie-Claude Trogneux on 13 April 1953) first met Emmanuel Macron at the La Providence High School in 1998, when she was a 40 year-old teacher, and he was a 15 year-old student and a classmate of her daughter, Laurence.

She was not his dancing teacher, but taught him literature and was in charge of the theatre class that he attended. Brigitte divorced her husband, André-Louis Auzière, in January 2006 and married Macron in October 2007.

Fact #2 : Brigitte + Emmanuel Macron Never Participated In Dance Contests

As far as I can tell – Brigitte and Emmanuel Macron never participated in any dancing contest.

So it would be quite impossible for them to appear in a dance competition 30 years ago.

Fact #3 : Viral Video Was Recorded In 2016

The viral video, which people claimed was Emmanuel Macron dancing with his teacher Brigitte, was not recorded 30 years ago.

It was posted on the SYTYCD (So You Think You Can Dance) YouTube channel on 6 September 2017, but featured on another YouTube channel on 13 July 2016.

Fact #4 : Music Was From 2014

You can also date the video using the music. It was certainly not 30 years old, but a much more recent – Toca Toca (Radio Edit) by Fly Project was published on YouTube on 14 May 2014.

Fact #5 : Viral Video Is Of Jenna Johnson + Jake Monreal

The viral video does not show Brigitte and Emmanuel Macron dancing in a competition.

The two dancers are Jenna Johnson and Jake Monreal, who were competing in “So You Think You Can Dance: The Next Generation” on July 11, 2016.

The YouTube video had the title “So You Think You Can Dance: The Next Generation – Jenna and Jake’s Ballroom Performance“.

In that video, Jenna and Jake performed a Cha Cha routine which was choreographed by Jean Marc Genereux, to “Toca Toca (Radio Edit)“.

Fact #6 : Jenna Johnson Is A Professional Dancer

Jenna Johnson (born April 12, 1994) is an American professional dance and choreographer, who was one of the mentors in that dance competition.

She competed with Jake Monreal in 2016, and made it to the Top 8 before elimination on August 1, 2016. She returned to the show in Season 14 to mentor Kiki Nyemchek, and made it to Top 4.

Fact #7 : Jake Monreal Is A Professional Dancer

Jake Monreal (born September 24, 2003) is now a 19 year-old professional dancer, who began dancing at the age of 10. At that time the video was recorded, he was just 12 years old.

Jake would become a professional dancer for Dancing with the Stars Junior in 2018.

Fact #8 : Just Another Example Of Fake News About Politicians

This is just another example of fake news created about politicians, and shared on WhatsApp and social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter. Here are some other examples I fact checked:
