Kate Hansen Wolf Video in Dorm Is a Hoax; Jimmy Kimmel Does It Again

That video of a wolf in Kate Hansen's Sochi dorm hallway? Apparently it's all a hoax, another joke by prankster late-night host Jimmy Kimmel.

The New York Post reports the whole wolf-in-the-hallway thing was staged. It turns out Kimmel worked with the U.S. luge Olympian to do the video.

Kimmel even tweeted about it.

I always say, if you're going to cry wolf - get an actual wolf to cry with http://t.co/930U3lFfr5 @k8ertotz

Hansen will reportedly appear on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" Thursday night at 11:35 via Skype from Sochi to laugh at everyone — er, explain the stunt.

Maybe we all should have seen it coming. With stories coming from every direction about stray dogs and other problems in Sochi during the Olympics, it's no surprise this was a joke Kimmel just couldn't pass up.

Here's the video Hansen posted, along with her Twitter comment, "Wolf in my hall?!? #SochiProblems #SochiFail."
