    Top 10 Most Eccentric People you didn't know

    Matayoshi Mitsuo, the japanese Jesus Christ

    Matayoshi Mitsuo is an eccentric Japanese politician with the conviction that he is the God and Christ.

    According to his program, he will do the Last Judgement as the Christ but the way to do this is totally within the current political system and its legitimacy. His first step as the Savior is to be appointed the prime minister of Japan. Then he will reform Japanese society and then the United Nations should offer him the honor of its General Secretary. Then Matayoshi Jesus will reign over the whole world with two legitimate authorities, not only religious but also political.

    He has presented himself in many elections but he has not won yet. He has become well-known for his eccentric campaigns where he urges opponents to commit suicide by hara-kiri.


    Sir Alfred Mehran, the Man who lives at the Airport since 1988

    Mehran Karimi Nasseri, also known as Sir, Alfred Mehran (yes, including the comma), is an Iranian refugee who has been living in the departure lounge of Terminal One in Charles de Gaulle Airport since August 8, 1988.

    After he was later imprisoned, tortured and expelled from his country, he applied for asylum in many European countries without luck.

    When he decided to go to the United Kingdom, he claimed that he was mugged, and his shoulder bag stolen while waiting at the RER platform to go to Charles de Gaulle Airport to take a flight to Heathrow. Nasseri managed to board the plane, but when he arrived at Heathrow without the necessary documentation, Heathrow officials sent him back to Charles de Gaulle. Nasseri was unable to prove his identity or his refugee status to the French officials and so he was moved to the Zone d'attente (waiting zone), a holding area for travellers without papers.

    Nasseri was reportedly the inspiration behind the 2004 movie The Terminal. Unlike Tom Hanks' character in the movie, and since at least 1994, Nasseri does not live in the duty-free transit area but simply in the departure hall, in the circular boutiques and restaurants passage on the lowest floor. He can at least theoretically leave the terminal at any moment, although, since everyone knows him, his departure might not remain unnoticed. He does not seem to speak with anyone normally. With his cart and bags, he almost looks like a traveler, so people either do not notice him or ignore him as if he were a homeless person.


    Norton I, Emperor of United States, and Protector of Mexico

    Joshua Abraham Norton, also known as His Imperial Majesty Emperor Norton I, was a celebrated citizen of San Francisco who proclaimed himself "Emperor of these United States and Protector of Mexico" in 1859. Although he had no political power, and his influence extended only so far as he was humored by those around him, he was treated deferentially in San Francisco, and currency issued in his name was honored in the establishments he frequented.

    Norton also corresponded with Queen Victoria, and he was referred to as His Imperial Majesty by local citizens and in the newspaper obituaries announcing his death.

    Though he was generally considered insane, or at least highly eccentric, the citizens of San Francisco (and the world at large) celebrated his presence, his humor, and his deeds—among the most notorious being his "order" that the U.S. Congress be dissolved by force, and his numerous decrees calling for a bridge to be built across San Francisco Bay.

    The King in Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is reportedly modeled after him.


    David Icke, our salvation from Reptilian Humanoids

    David Icke, is a former professional football player, BBC television sports presenter, and British Green Party national spokesperson. Since 1990, he has been what he calls a "full-time investigator into who and what is really controlling the world.": reptilians.

    He dresses only in turquoise and sustains that the world was ruled by a secret group called "The Elite": a race of reptilian humanoids, known in ancient times as the Babylonian Brotherhood, and that many prominent people are descended from them, including George W. Bush, Queen Elizabeth II, and Kris Kristofferson. He believes that descendants of the reptiles engage in child molestation and Satanism. He is the author of 15 books explaining his views. After a five-hour speech to students, he received a standing ovation at the University of Toronto in 1999.


    Lina Medina, the 5 year-old mother (youngest ever)

    Lina Medina (born September 27, 1933 in Paurange, Peru) gave birth at the age of 5 years, 7 months and 21 days and is the youngest confirmed mother in medical history. This world record is closely followed by a similar case in Russia.

    Lina was brought to a hospital by her parents at the age of 5 years because of increasing abdominal size. She was originally thought to have had a tumor, but her doctors determined she was in the seventh month of pregnancy. There was never evidence that Lina Medina's pregnancy occurred in any but the usual way, but she never revealed the father of the child, nor the circumstances of her impregnation. She refuses interviews.


    Florence Jenkins, the famous Soprano who couldn't sing

    Florence Foster Jenkins (1868) was an American soprano who became famous for her complete lack of singing ability. she became tremendously popular in her unconventional way: her audiences apparently loved her for the amusement she provided rather than her musical ability. Jenkins was firmly convinced of her greatness, comparing herself favourably to the renowned sopranos Frieda Hempel and Luisa Tetrazzini, and dismissed the laughter which often came from the audience during her performances as coming from her rivals consumed by "professional jealousy".

    Jenkins restricted her rare performances to a few favorite venues, and her annual recital at the Ritz-Carlton ballroom in New York City. Attendance of her recitals was always limited to her loyal clubwomen and a select few others - she handled distribution of the coveted tickets herself. At the age of 76, Jenkins finally yielded to public demand and performed at Carnegie Hall on October 25, 1944. So anticipated was the performance that tickets for the event sold out weeks in advance. Jenkins died a month later.


    Pope Michael I, the elected Pope from Kansas since 1990

    David Allen Bawden (born 1959), is an American citizen who was elected "Pope Michael I" by a group of six Conclavist or post-Sedevacantist Catholics, arguing that the elections of the last 6 popes were invalid because they are all modernists.

    Sedevacantists argue that if the College of Cardinals will not or cannot elect a valid pope, ordinary Catholics can do so, under the principle of "Epikeia" (Equity). Acting on the basis of this, David Bawden was elected Pope by six people on 1990 (including himself and his parents). He is still on the job to this day.


    Gilbert Nelles, the reincarnation of Elvis Presley

    Gilbert Nelles is a man currently resident in the Yukon, who believes that he is the reincarnation of Elvis Presley, resulting from being hit by a beam from a UFO. He normally chooses to dress in a manner resembling the real-life Elvis Presley, and is a songwriter and artist.

    "Tagish" Elvis has performed in Las Vegas with Chubby Checker. In 2005, he ran for the leadership of the Yukon Liberal Party, coming in a far distant fourth place with only five votes.


    Le Pétomane, the world's most famous professional farter

    Le Pétomane was the stage name of the French professional farter and entertainer Joseph Pujol (1857 - 1945).

    He was famous in Victorian times for his remarkable control of the abdominal muscles, which enabled him to break wind at will. He derived his stage name from the French verb péter, "to fart."

    Some of the highlights of his stage act involved playing a flute through a rubber tube in his anus and farting sound effects of cannon fire and thunderstorms.


    Noel Godin, the cream pie flinger

    Noel Godin (1945) is a Belgian writer, critic, actor and notorious cream pie flinger or ‘entarteur'. Godin gained global attention in 1998 when his group ambushed Microsoft CEO Bill Gates in Brussels, pelting the software magnate with pies. Godin claims his goal has long been to ‘entarte' as many people like Gates as possible - people he feels are particularly self-important and lacking a sense of humor.

    Godin, who uses the pseudonym ‘Georges Le Gloupier' has also inspired an unknown number of followers around the world, who now regularly provide him with details about the whereabouts of various important potential targets. It took 32 people to conduct the Bill Gates operation. His followers take care to look as ridiculous as possible as they throw their tarts, smiling broadly, spouting anti-pretentious poetry and repeating "gloup, gloup, gloup."

    Who could forget the late, great Salvador Dali? When he trimmed his moustachios, which I think measured over a foot each, he claimed that it was because he was receiving messages from the spirit world!

    Lee Reynolds of Alcoa, who believes every human is at risk from meteorites from outer space and wears a heavy steel umbrella- shaped protector over his entire body when he exits his home. The steel meteorite shield was hit 7 times by lightning before reynolds installed a lightning rod at its peak. He wears rubber shoes and drags a 20 foot steel chain to disperse the lightning into ground.

    Reptilian Humanoids? - Couldn't there have been a better and more believable title? And why does he always wear the same color shirt? Conspiracies are interesting and some are probably true, but I don't buy this one. (The standing ovation in Toronto is surprising, thought)

    Inri Cristo, the almighty god 10/3/2006 - 03:18
    by   surak
    There's also Inri Cristo, a brazilian which not only believe he's jesus himself, but also tries to prove so by physical evidence (he looks like the face in sancto sudareum). Oh, he have his own religion, wears himself like the paintings of jesus and uses a crown of thorns.

    He has several wifes and tried to remove a fine to his car by saying that "police cannot fine god"
    And he has a website in three languages: http://www.inricristo.org.br/

    by   Marduk502
    Inri Cristo is indeed quite eccentric. As Surak said, he is convinced that he's Jesus. But there is more: he speaks "neo aramaico", a language that is the portuguese with some strange accent (but it's only portuguese). He says thet Virgin Mary, actually, had a sexual encounter with Joseph, "his" father. Joseph was inducted into a "holy coma", like a transis, and had a sexual act with Mary to generate Jesus.

    Damn freak!!

    I really do not understand why a poor molested girl who had an abnormal pituitary disjunction is included in this group! Poor thing was not only molested, but she went through the additional trauma of giving birth at the age of five!

    You seriously need to take the 5 year old out. There is nothing eccentric about her story from the articles I have read about her.

    "There was never evidence that Lina Medina's pregnancy occurred in any but the usual way."

    If I fully comment on this statement I might end up with a broken computer on the floor.

    P.S Her father was arrested and released later on because they didn't have enough evidence. Remember it was 1939. They didn't have those kinds of test back then.
