00:00What misleading and false claims spread about the Cran-Montana deadly fire?

00:11A deadly fire at a bar in the Swiss Key Resort of Cran-Montana

00:14killed 40 people and injured more than 100 on New Year's Eve.

00:18A range of verified online footage catalogues the tragedy,

00:21which mainly involved teenage victims,

00:24providing a timeline of how the blaze ignited.

00:27But a host of other misleading claims, fake images and AI-generated content

00:32have also gained traction across social media.

00:36Several accounts claimed the fire was caused by an explosion,

00:39relaying initial reports made by local authorities,

00:43although authorities rapidly clarified their statements.

00:46These posts have remained online, sparking confusion.

00:50By the morning of the 1st of January,

00:52Swiss authorities ruled out an attack on the bar and instead pointed to a fire.

00:56On the 2nd of January, they said that it was likely ignited by sparkler candles,

01:01which were attached to champagne bottles, and set the ceiling alight.

01:05Officials explained that loud bangs reported by witnesses

01:09were caused by flammable materials, which burned quickly.

01:13This widely shared photo claimed to show emergency responders after the fire.

01:18But a closer look reveals that they are wearing jackets with polish writing on them.

01:23That's because these images are from a gas explosion which occurred in Poland in 2019.

01:29Another image claiming to show the venue's exterior does not match verified photos of the bar,

01:35because it is in fact AI-generated.

01:37And here, we traced this footage of waiters swirling handkerchiefs,

01:42while a fire blazes above them to a fire at a restaurant in Bali a week earlier.

01:47Swiss prosecutors have opened a criminal investigation into the owners of the bar,

01:52and whether they complied with safety requirements.
