Pathological Liars

Some people seem to lead complete fantasy lives with lies stacked on lies stacked on more lies. Tell us about the ones you've met.
BTW, if any of you want to admit to making up all your QOTW stories, now would be a good time to do it.

I've got a couple...
There were 2 guys I met at university.
1. The first guy (H****) lived with some mates of mine whose house I used to frequent. He told the most amazing lies (that made one gasp and stretch ones eyes!). They were mostly about the adventures/exploits of his apparently super-human dad.
H**** claimed that his dad owned a sailing boat that he kept on a lake somewhere. One day his dad went out to do some fishing on the lake when a storm blew in. A bolt of lightning hit the mast and travelled down it. Holding onto the mast at the time, his dad channelled the bolt of lightning and shot it out of his fingertips into the water! His dad was apparently unscathed by this ordeal... H**** also claimed that his dad was a doctor (we never had this confirmed) and worked in A & E. One night a man walked in with an axe buried deep in his skull and asked H****'s dad to remove it! Hmmm...
2. The second liar, who we shall call Craig (for that was his name) was assigned to me as a lab partner in the first year of uni. On the first day of meeting him he claimed that:
a) he had blown up his Chemistry classroom with his A-level course work experiment. Windows broken, walls demolished, the works!
b) he owned a Renault Clio (fair enuff) and had crashed it into a wall at 70mph while being chased by the police. He emerged from the wreckage unscathed and the police were so relieved that they let him off whatever it was they were chasing him for.
c) he won some kind of racing series in his Renault Clio, with a (wait for it...) prize of £100,000. Yes that's one hundred thousand of your English pounds. He then proceeded to spend this money on (wait for it part 2...) a new engine for his Renault Clio! Yes, he was a complete and utter mong.
*** Insert obligatory length joke***
P.S. Oh and *pop* goes my b3ta cherry!

I think
H**** was Hercules and his father was Zeus!
Or maybe Odin.

Clio
The Clio thing could conceiveably be true. Renault run a Clio Cup series every year. Was his Clio the 205bhp 2.0 race car version?
