WorldFact check: Colombia gym video falsely linked to Xizang earthquake

A video filmed at a gym in Pereira, Colombia, in August was falsely presented on social media as footage of the magnitude-7.0 earthquake in Xizang in October. Fact Hunter found it was unrelated, citing its earlier publication, matching gym and building details, and daylight in the clip despite the nighttime quake.
