11 People Caught Lying On The Internet For Attention

Have you ever seen a post on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit or even YouTube that made you roll your eyes in disbelief? More specifically, have you seen a story online that absolutely wasn't true because absolutely nothing about it is convincing in the slightest? Apparently, a lot of people have stumbled across things like this, and when you've been online long enough, it gets easier to tell fact from fiction because there's absolutely no way the things in the following list happened, and we doubt there was even a single incident for them to exaggerate something like this from. They're just that ridiculous.

Liars online are way too obvious at times. They just haven't perfected the right skills to do it, but they're so proud of what they have to say anyway that they have no shame.

Below are 11 of our favorite elaborate storytellers from /r/ThatHappened.
