Another 10 Crazy Lies Told By Hulk Hogan That No One Believes

There are four kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, statistics, and anything Hulk Hogan says.

The art of exaggeration has been part of the wrestling business for decades.

For every seven-foot monster who roars on the way to the ring, there are a dozen guys the same size who are actually 6'6". Austin Aries isn't just a world-class wrestler, he's The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived. 93,173 people packed the Pontiac Silverdome for Wrestlemania III, unless it was actually 78,000. Exaggeration is simply part of the packaging. And if you're not down with that, we've got just two words for you:

Hulk Hogan.

The Hulkster has a knack for going past exaggeration, soaring beyond the edge of plausibility, and landing smack-dab in the middle of full-blown fabrication.

Whether he's claiming he tried out for Metallica or that, with the time difference between the United States and Japan, he once worked 400 days in a single calendar year, Hogan doesn't so much bend the truth as go Zack Sabre Jr. on it and twist it into agonizing knots.

We previously covered some of Hogan's most egregious whoppers, but wouldn't you know it, he's got plenty more where those came from.

So sit back with your Hulk Hogan Grill-- er, I mean, George Foreman grill, say your prayers, eat your vitamins, and enjoy.

10. A Matter Of Inches

Let's start with one of Hogan's most recent lies.

During his Gawker trial, it came out that Hulk Hogan's 24" pythons weren't the Hulkster's only bodily appendages whose size was worth noting.

Yes, it is on record that he discussed Hulk Hogan's 10-inch hog on The Howard Stern Show, but that Terry Bollea's Jake the Snake isn't that big.

Apparently Terry Bollea is more El Torito than Brahma Bull by comparison, since Hulk Hogan's junk is larger. Which is an important part of the babyface mystique, of course.

Hulk Hogan is insane.
