8. One Conspiracy Theory Asserts That Princess Diana Was Assassinated, Not Killed By A Drunk Driver
The whole world went into shock in August of 1997 when the beloved Princess Diana was killed in a Paris tunnel after an ambitious paparazzi hit her car. Nevertheless, who wants to believe that royalty can die in a drunk driving accident? Not Mohammad al-Fayed, whose daughter Dodi was in the vehicle and also killed. Al-Fayed promoted a conspiracy theory that the paparazzi car that hit Princess Diana’s vehicle was a puppet of British intelligence, being used to assassinate her. However, officials did not believe that.
Multiple inquests, including an official one, disproved the conspiracy theory, but people still choose to believe it. After all, the world seems to be a safer place when royalty dies from assassinations, as in Game of Thrones, not from drunk drivers. Not everyone is out to get others. However, some do believe that they were told a lie and that what they believe in is the hidden truth. Some just don’t like to acknowledge the facts, even when evidence is given to them, no matter the situation.
