Thanks to Snopes, here are the latest urban legends circling the internet world:

First, a mermaid-like creature was found in the aftermath of the tsunami. This one is false.

Denzel Washington made a sizable donation to the Fisher House Foundation, a place for military families to stay while their loved ones are in the Brooks Army Medical Center in San Diego, after visiting the patients at the hospital. This one is true.

A baby hippo who was orphaned in the tsunami has made a mother-child connection with a tortoise. This one is true.

And finally, Christians who were banned from celebrating Christmas in Meulaboh decided to meet to worship on a hill outside of town, and were spared by the tsunami. This one is false.
