9. Elvis is Still Alive
Almost four decades later, the death of music legend Elvis Presley in 1977 still remains a topic of great debate. Proponents of this conspiracy theory believe that Elvis faked his own death for a number of reasons, namely that he wanted out of the public eye to conquer his drugs and eating addiction in private. What are some of the clues that Elvis is still alive and well? Well, for starts, to this day, his 1 million dollar life insurance policy has yet to be collected. This is pretty surprising when you consider the family and friends that Elvis was supporting.
Want more evidence? The spelling of Elvis’ tombstone is incorrect. You may not know that Elvis was born a twin with a stillborn named Garon. To pay tribute to his brother, Elvis’ parents named him Elvis Aron Presley. In 1966, Elvis decided to change his middle name to read Aaron instead of Aron, but later, due to his father’s wishes he changed it back. However, Elvis’ tombstone read “Elvis Aaron Presley”. Theorists have maintained that this is a clue that Elvis was symbolizing the death of his former self, but his present self is still very much alive.
Still not convinced? On the day of Elvis’ death, black helicopters appeared on the lawns of Graceland. It has been said that these helicopters were FBI choppers that came to warn The King that he needed to disappear before the mob whacked him, as he was assisting the FBI on an ongoing investigation into the Memphis Mafia. Apparently an Elvis look-a-like was spotted later that day buying a one-way ticket to Buenos Aires. The name on the ticket? Jon Burrows. Elvis commonly used Jon Burrows as a decoy when booking hotels and restaurants to avoid any unwanted attention.
With all that said, we have to wonder: with the amount of Elvis Presley impersonators out there, it wouldn’t be too hard to fake your own death and remain under the radar, would it?
