This is a question Bullshit and Bullshitters

We've had questions about lies and liars in the past, but this time we're asking about the sort of fantasist who constantly claims they've got a helicopter in the garden or was "second onto the balcony at the Iranian Embassy siege". Tell us about the cobblers you've been told, or the complete lies you've come out with.

Thanks to dozer for the suggestion

My wife and I worked in the same place about 6 yrs ago....
and there was a guy in her department who claimed to have been.....
part of Russel Crowe's bodygaurd team,
a mountain rescue team member, complete with 'dead body recovery' stories,
the owner of a ferrari (totalled in a spectacular way),
and related to Paul Scholes of Man Utd. (third cousin 6 times removed or something)

He was 5ft 5inches in shoes, weighed about 8 stone and was, best of all, 22yrs old.
I don't doubt he believed himself, but we sure as hell didn't. Notably, his car at the time was a knackered Peugeot 405 and he couldn't name the people who he was related to that would lead to Mr Scholes. 117 people who worked at the same place we did all called him 'Mick the shit'. I feel kind of sorry for someone who has to come out with that level of crap because they must have a fairly pityful existence.
