PMSL at this thread.
Biggest bull$hitter I know/knew was a gym instructor at a gym I used to train at.
A few years later I bumped into him and he started giving it the usual Billy Bull$hit lol! Anyway he asks if I had seen one of the instructers he used to work with. I replied no and he said he was now 19st/20st. Now I had not seen either of these guys in years and I saw the guy at a bowling alley two weeks later and he was about 12st!
I can understand bull$hitters bragging and making themselves look good and all that $hite but bullying someone else up and there being no benefit to themselves is totally beyond me.

guy up the golf club is a bit of a strecher of the truth, although apparently he has actually done some of the things he goes on about,(some sort of racing background) so not to sure what to believe.
think he may be telling porkies when he told someone he's been banned from using his titanium woods in the rough in the summer as 'i swing so hard and fast that if i catch a stone, the spark will burn the whole course down'

.
His lies became almost legendary so when he told us he was getting over 300 miles to the gallon from his 50cc moped he used for his daily commute we decided to prove him right
He used to ride the bike to work and park it in a bike shed at the back of the carpark. We took turns to buy a gallon of petrol and top up his tank at lunchtime every day.
We were pi55ing ourselves when he told us that the bike had covered a distance of 500 miles since he last filled it with no discernable level decrease in the petrol tank. Others, who weren't in on it, thought it was his usual bull but for once he was telling the truth.
At one point he was planning on contacting the Guinness Book of Records and he did actually write a letter to Honda informing them of his astonishing moped that used zero petrol.
Not too surprising that Honda did not respond
He went ballistic when we stopped filling it, claiming that someone was siphoning his petrol.

We had a nonce of a security guard who amongst other whoppers told this one:
A girl at work was on the way out the door, late for a flight to Heathrow, so he told her not to worry, he had a mate in the RAF and he'd get her a lift in a Tornado.
I think she took her chances with BA

We had a guy at work who had a reputation for being late. in the short period of his employment,he went through the overslept, puncture, food poisioning, mugged, bad back, funeral, birth (he was single btw) etc.. there was no excuse he hadnt tried!!
the piece de resistance came one monday morning when no surprise he was late... several people reported seing him being carted into an ambulance about 1/4 mile away from work.. he arrived in at about 3pm to let the boss know he had had collapsed at the last set of traffic lights and had a suspected heart attack, but he had medication and was ok to work!!!! and would be in in the morning...
he wasnt!!! and he wasnt working for us for much longer

A lad at work is a Mcdonalds fan........reckons his record is eating 27 double cheeseburgers in one sitting.
Another guy reckons he's the European agent for Nike Brazil in his spare time (he works as a fork lift driver btw) and is the sole agent for the Brazilian football association in Europe.
He did bring in a load of photo's of himself and Rio Ferdinand,Alan smith,Kewell and Peter Risdale which shut us up a bit though.

A bloke I work with turned out to be a Billy Bull$hitter but so far I'm the only one to spot it. He reckons his 60-odd year old mum had a 500bhp Scooby with sequential gearbox built by Prodrive for "shopping and some rallying" but it got too much for her so she swapped it for an Evo8 which now has 550bhp and is totally reliable apart from eating the brake discs so now she has carbon fibre ones
His face was a picture yesterday when he asked what the Scoobs potential was and I said "400's anyone who tells you more than that is either rich or lying" which was just to see his reaction
Having said that, he told someone else at work that his Dad was an author and we looked it up on Amazon and there was his dad's book!

one time this person i knew was going to sell me his decks (1210's) for about 100 quid brand new as his mum had jus got him gold plated ones. so we had to go pick them up + i offered a lift because his massive house was miles away. so he got a bit nervous at this point but assured me we could drive there + still get the decks. we got to this massive private road with huge houses on it, gotta be an absolute packet worth of buildings there. he goes errr thats my house. so i said id get out and come in with him. no no u stay in the car. errr ok then. so he runs up to the front door, hardly even knocks then comes back to the car + says no-ones in. im like 'well its your house how can u not have a key', eerrrr i forgot it. then he ran round the back of the house + came back and said weve gotta go no ones home. utter b0llox was that his house.
never did get the decks either !

paul-s : Sounds very similar to an 'Only Fools and Horses' episode where Rodney tried to persuade Cassandra he lived in 'Dunne Hill' (I think!)
