Wilhelm Voigt (13 February 1849 – 3 January 1922) was a German con man and impostor. In his most famous exploit, Voigt masqueraded as a military officer of the elite Prussian Guards in 1906, rounding up a number of Imperial German Army soldiers under his "command", "arresting" the Mayor of Köpenick, and "confiscating" 4,002 marks from the city treasury. Voigt then changed back into civilian clothing and disappeared with the money. The case was exploited for British propaganda about German militarism, but the German people overwhelmingly considered Voigt's exploit to be both clever and hilarious. Although Voigt was soon caught and served 20 months in prison, he became a folk hero as "the Captain of Köpenick" (German: der Hauptmann von Köpenick [ˈhaʊptman fɔn ˈkøːpənɪk] ⓘ) and was granted a full pardon by Kaiser Wilhelm II.

The age old tradition of people shouldn't be charged with objectively funny crimes.

A.i. start up valued at 1.5 billion dollars collapses and files for bankruptcy after it was exposed that it was not A.I. it was just 700 humans.

the majority of labor at Builder.ai was produced by humans, with some clerical work being done using general software.

The farce lasted for eight years, getting exposed in May 2025...

I just found out about island gigantism, I was aware that when larger animals start to live and breed on an island they can start to become smaller then their continental brethren but I was unaware that it could also happen in the opposite direction, like for example I saw the weta which is a giant cricket way larger then normal ones and they are massive. So yeah small things get big on islands and vice versa.
