For the second time in a year, the internet has prematurely pronounced Foo Fighter, Dave Grohl, dead.

Internet pranksters hacked into Wikipedia, and added a date of death to Grohl's bio, of February 5th, 2007. When his wife started receiving messages of condolence, Grohl figured something was up.

Dave takes it all in stride however, and looks at it with a sense of humor. "That was weird, but I guess I've finally graduated to that status of being an internet rumour. It weirded me out a bit, but it's stupid. I'm like a cockroach, don't worry, I'll be around for a long time."

The internet also spread the death rumor about Grohl in May of 2006. Grohl is among several stars who have had their death prematurely pronounced, such as Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, and Paul Weller.
