Videos that circulated on social media claimed to show large fossilized structures, millions of years old, discovered after a recent flash flood in Nepal. These posts went viral quickly, suggesting an extraordinary archaeological discovery related to the natural disaster.
However, a subsequent verification revealed that the structures shown in the videos are not genuine fossils. They are, in fact, sculptures, having no connection to the flash flood event.
Furthermore, these sculptures are located far from where the actual disaster occurred in Nepal, disproving any connection between the two elements.
The situation serves as an example of the spread of misinformation during significant news events, where false content is shared and presented as facts related to real events.
