Everyone has lied before. What was the craziest one you have said?

Back when utility-scale wind energy was first getting started, I was working a gig in Oklahoma. I was enjoying breakfast at a local diner when I overheard some local cattle farmers wondering out loud "What those great big fans do..."

They finally noticed my site t-shirt (complete with site name, location, wind turbine illustration) so they asked me. I replied, "Oh...they'e part of the NOAA/NWS Tornado Mitigation Network. They're for blowing area tornadoes back towards Kansas & Texas..."

They seemed oddly OK with that...

On 8th grade, I faked a sprained ankle to get out of mandatory skiing day, does that count? To be more convincing, I started faking a day BEFORE the skiing day, and kept going for the rest of the week, gradually reducing my limp... I also got a note from my mom (who knew I was fine) AND the school nurse, who just wrote the note after seeing my bandaged ankle, didn't bother to check it further. This wasn't my only scheme at school; reputation as a good little nerd really helps and nobody suspects a thing. :P

I once told another girl at my preschool that I cut off my finger with scissors once and when she asked why I still had all ten, I said it grew back 🙈

Not me, but my little brother.
When he was a LOT younger, and in potty training, he had an ‘accident’. My mom asked him who did that to his pants, he responded: “Daddy did.”

Many years ago my little brother came home from school and told mum that a boy in his class had a javelin thrown in his eye. Mum upset by what she heard called the school wanting to know how this could of happened only to be told by the person on the phone Miss Jones I can insure no one had a javelin thrown in their eye.
