We lie, and we do it quite often. But these are mostly small lies, like “I'll call you in the morning” or “that dress looks great on you.”

And they are totally fine and even desirable sometimes. And most of the time, we get away with it because it's what people want to hear, and the lies are small.

But some people really go overboard and make up stories so wild that even their own mother would have a hard time believing them. Many of these stories end up on the subreddit r/thatHappened.

Its members talk about "people telling outrageous tall tales that would make Walter Mitty proud," and they have gathered quite the archive since its creation in 2012. Sometimes people lie just to inflate their ego and public image or to conceal some embarrassing moment.

One of the funniest stories was when American swimmer Ryan Lochte claimed that he had been robbed at gunpoint at a gas station. What happened was that he and his teammates, drunk after a party, had been confronted by armed security guards after damaging property.
