Ginger Rogers hoax

I've been coming across several references to an email and Facebook hoax relating to a YouTube that's claimed to show 92-year-old Ginger Rogers dancing with her great-grandson. Of course, it isn't: she died in 1995 in her 80s.

This isn't a threat: it's a genuine movie and an interesting enough story to stand on its own, so I won't go into it all on the ThreatBlog. However, if you're interested in hoaxes in general and this story in particular, you might want to check out my blog here.
