World's Biggest Liar Competition |#liar #competition #unique

The World's Biggest Liar competition has had some notable winners in recent years. In 2003, Abrie Krueger of South Africa became the first foreigner to win the competition with his story about being crowned King of the Wasdale Valley. However, there were allegations of cheating that followed. In 2006, comedian Sue Perkins made history as the first woman to win the competition with her tale of how the ozone layer became damaged, causing ice caps to melt and people to ride camels to work. In 2008, John "Johnny Liar" Graham won the competition for the seventh time by spinning a yarn about a magical ride to Scotland in a wheelie bin that went under the sea. The previous year, he won with a story about a World War II German submarine invading Britain to capture digital television decoders. In 2010, Paul Burrows from Essex won by claiming that the lakes and mountains of the Cumbrian countryside had been stolen from Essex, leaving it flat. The 2011 winner was Glen Boylan, who told a tale about betting on a snail race with Prince Charles, advising him to remove the shell to make it more aerodynamic, only to lose when his opponents cheated with battery-operated snails. In 2013, Mike Naylor won for the third time with a story about Wassie, the monster that lives in Wastwater, the local lake. He is the nephew of Joss Naylor, a famous fell runner and former winner of the competition. The most recent winner, Phillip Gate from Workington, won in 2019 with his story about how Cumbria is rich not only in coal deposits but also sugar, which is the reason for the county's large jam production. These winners, along with countless other participants, have contributed to the legacy of the World's Biggest Liar competition, showcasing the power of creative storytelling and the ability to captivate an audience with a tall tale.
