[QUOTE="drkelly, post: 471738, member: 825"] I doubt it. Looks like you are in AL? I am in central, NC. The topper that worked here was a contractor too. He was here around 2007-2009 when the company was wide open on a big project. Everyone here sits in a cubicle, but there were so many people here at that time they converted a big room into 'the man cave' we used to call it. About 15-20 contract engineers were in that room. Not long after he started someone started the 'Topper List' for all of his stories. It was on a shared drive where everyone could get to it to add the latest tall tale they had been told by Topper. A co worker of mine still has a copy and sent it to me. It is 9 pages long! Here is the first page: 1. Sailed a 72’ sail boat double handed through three (3) hurricanes and 80’ waves, the boat’s was supposedly a Swan (a multi million dollar sailing yacht) note I said double handed as in only two people, the boat was totalled. 2. While riding his Banshee down the beach he spotted a Giant Squid. He ran in to the water and single handily captured (wrestled) it and dug it onto the beach where he and a bunch of locals immediately cut it up for food.(Baja Peninsula) 3. Once got knocked off his Banshee at OVER 100 MPH on beach by seagull impact to head. With his daughter on board with him, she was able to control it after he got knocked off. 4. Rolled a Jeep CJ down 250’ cliff and walked away virtually unscathed 5. Had repeated high speed “get-offs” at over 100 MPH from Banshee, saved only by his custom made chest protector. 6.
