http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleksey_VaynerSome true Vayner statements (no, this is not a joke):
He claimed that he "is one of four people in the state of Connecticut qualified to handle nuclear waste".[17]
He was employed by both the Mafia and the CIA during his childhood.[18]
He gave tennis lessons to Harrison Ford, Sarah Michelle Gellar[18], and Jerry Seinfeld[12]. He further claims to have won two games in a tennis match against Pete Sampras.[12]
He is a specialist in "Chinese orthopedic massage."[12]
The Dalai Lama had apparently written his college recommendation.[12]
He has killed two dozen men in Tibetan gladiatorial contests.[12]
He claimed to be "an action star, an espionage expert, and a professional athlete. He would be on the C.I.A. firing range one day and at a martial-arts competition that took place in [a] secret system of tunnels underneath Woodstock, New York."[12]
His investment firm's website lists a non-existent address, and the charitable organization is using an unauthorized Charity Navigator logo. The president of Charity Navigator has stated that he believes Vayner should be expelled from Yale for this.[15] Vayner defended himself to the New York Times by saying the logo had been added to his website by developers "in India and Pakistan," and that he had played no role in adding it.[16]
Excerpts of Vayner's self-published book, Women's Silent Tears, a "unique gender-focused perspective on the Holocaust in Eastern Europe" made available for free at Lulu.com, show that at least some of its content had been plagiarized from an online Holocaust encyclopedia and other sources.[14][17] Vayner responded that the text at Lulu was an early draft of the book, and that the final version would have been worded differently
