Bullshit and BullshittersWe'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 lecturer at Uni told us thathe is a member of 'Project Lionheart' which is a top secret BBC directive. In the event of a death in the Royal Family, this directive will be enacted by the BBC, who will contact the people on the list and employ their skills in the mass media coverage. These people will have all their current jobs suspended and will be reimbursed for the inconvenience AND will be paid a massive £1000 per day!!!!11!!one!!
When I went to do research at the BBC I asked about this directive and yes indeed there is such a plan for certain massive news events but its not called Lionheart and they don't hire freelancers above their minimum rate. The last time it was put into action was the day of the 7/7 bombings and I know for a fact Mr M was lecturing a class that day.
He also told us that the hardest part about filming the Winter Olympics, for him, was the downhill Skiing. He explained how hard it was to hold the camera, keep focus and keep the Olympian in shot while having to ski backwards down the same slalom........
