Fact Check: This limping man is NOT a Gaza actor! The truth behind this viral video

The internet loves its slapstick comedy. The video shows a man with a bandaged leg getting out of a car with the help of two friends, and limping on the supposedly injured leg. A Facebook user captioned the video: “Actor in Gaza pretends to be a ‘victim’ but accidentally uses the wrong foot while limping with a supposed broken foot. It appeared that the man wearing a cap in the viral video was the owner of the Instagram account. We found that the Instagram user also shared a separate video regarding the viral claim on December 14.
