Eddie Murphy's reps have been forced to deny the comedian died in a snowboarding accident yesterday.

The Tower Heist actor was subjected to rumours that he had passed away in an accident in Switzerland. Reports began circulating online that Eddie was involved in a collision on the slopes of Zermatt, Switzerland, but his reps have set the record straight, confirming he is still alive and well.

Unfortunately for Eddie, this isn't the first time he has been subjected to a death hoax - there have been at least four other reports of death by snowboarding accidents in the past. I'm Big Blac this is your BHR HollyWood Reports
