Is Morgan Wallen Actually Dale Earnhardt? Breaking Down The Internet’s Latest Ridiculous Conspiracy Theory
Makes you think…that people are crazy.
Honestly, I’m not sure whether this one is just somebody trolling, or whether people actually believes the wild stuff they post. But either way, it’s equally insane.
A viral video posted by “The Fittest Flat Earther” claims that country music singer Morgan Wallen is actually…Dale Earnhardt. Yes, the NASCAR legend who died in 2001.
Now, I know what you’re thinking: Dale Earnhardt was 49 years old when he tragically passed away on the final lap of the 2001 Daytona 500. Morgan Wallen, on the other hand, is only 32 years old.
And, I can’t stress this enough, the biggest flaw in the conspiracy theory…Dale Earnhardt is dead.
Nevertheless, I couldn’t help but let myself fall down the rabbit hole and watch the whole video.
So what’s the evidence that has somebody convinced that this 32-year old country singer is actually a now-74 year old former NASCAR driver who we were told has been dead for 24 years? Well buckle up, because it’s a wild ride.
The biggest evidence he presents that Morgan Wallen is, in fact, Dale Earnhardt, seems to be their appearance. And sure, they do resemble each other. But this guy points out that their lips, mustaches, and noses are “exactly similar,” combining their photos and claiming that they look almost exactly alike.
He then points out a scar that Dale Earnhardt had on his right cheek, while noticing that Morgan also suspiciously has a scar in pretty much the same location on his face.
Makes you think, eh?
Then there’s the way that Dale Earnhardt (supposedly) died: By hitting a wall. Wall, Wallen…get it? (I didn’t say it made sense, I’m just laying out the claims).
It’s not just his last name though. The name Morgan is of Welsh origin, originally coming from the old Welsh word “Morcant,” meaning sea-circle, or “Great Circle.” You know what else is a great circle? Daytona International Speedway, where Dale Earnhardt was killed.
See? It makes perfect sense now.
The final piece of evidence that he cites is Morgan’s new song “Number 3 and Number 7,” from his latest album I’m The Problem which features Eric Church. Now, I’m not sure if he realizes that the “Number 3” in the title is quite literally a reference to the Intimidator: The song tells the story of a kid who learns the hard way that mixing “Number 3” – as in, driving like Dale Earnhardt – and Jack Daniels Old No. 7, doesn’t “add up to much good.” Not really a hidden meaning there, just a song referencing Dale Earnhardt as an example of somebody who drives fast…kinda like a thousand other country songs.
Wallen also recently met Richard Petty, who was friends with Earnhardt, when NASCAR was in Nashville for the Cracker Barrel 500 last month. And what car number did Richard Petty drive? 43. What’s 4 + 3? Number 7. “Number 3 and Number 7.”

I told you it was a wild ride.
Now, like I said, I’m not sure if this guy’s trolling or if anybody actually believes this. Morgan was born in 1993, nearly 8 years before Earnhardt was killed. It’s entirely possible that Morgan even WATCHED the race when Earnhardt lost his life.
It’s just another example of the internet loving a good conspiracy theory, and this one appears to have started simply because they bear at least a passing resemblance to each other.
I mean, could you imagine Dale Earnhardt walking out on stage to “Broadway Girls?” Yeah, me either. I rest my case.
