Our hearts skipped a beat when we heard that Sylvester Stallone has passed away yesterday. However, the actor himself calmed his fans down when he rubbished the rumours of his death with a couple of tweets and an Instagram post featuring himself and his two daughters. He posted a screenshot of his death hoax: "Please ignore this stupidity. "(I'm) alive and well and happy and healthy. Still punching." This is not the first time that Sylvester has been a target of some death hoax. 18 months back, a Facebook post suggested that Sylvester died after battling prostate cancer in his Los Angeles home. The post featured a couple of the actor's pictures, in which he looked unwell.

Sylvester Stallone's brother Frank Stallone was extremely upset with the reports as the 67-year-old singer tweeted, "I'm very protective of my older brother and I don't find any humor in this fake post today on my brothers demise. It upset my 96-year-old mother so I'm doubly upset. I just can't understand what makes these sick minded people tick?"
