9. Stan Laurel Is Clint Eastwoods Dad
Okay, okay, this is more salacious gossip than a conspiracy, but it is a yarn that is so damned intriguing that it had to appear on this list. Look at the picture above and ask yourself how can they possibly not be related? Born in 1930, Clint Eastwood JR was destined for fame as some of the toughest characters to ever fill movie land. Eastwood has always ignored the notion that his Mother never knew who his Father was, only adding to a gossip littered tale that his father was one half of the most famous double act in history. Hollywood anti hero and all round tough nut fathered by soft centered, cowardly bumbling fool? It seems very unlikely he would ever even want to discuss it, let alone give it any credibility. True? Well no, it really isn't. They do indeed have a similar look, but Clint Eastwood's father is actually a man called Clinton Eastwood Senior, he was a migrant steel worker who lived between 1906 -1970, his mother was a factory worker who never tasted the high life let alone had sexual relations with one of the biggest movie stars of the time. Fathering an illegitimate child is one fine mess Stan Laurel seemingly
didn't get himself into.
