Is the guy's name ken?
I worked with a dude in college, we'll call him Ken, as that was his name, who started working with us and he seemed pretty cool at first, but then I started noticing that he had a tendency to one-up anyone's stories and they started getting a little bit outrageous. So finally I was talking to a co-worker and asked if he had noticed that Ken was full of haggis, which he did. So I said, "let's do an experiment and I will make up a story about getting caught in a storm up in the Uintas and that lightening got really close and I will guarantee that he will say he has been struck by lightening." So when Ken came in, he was working around the corner, but within hearing distance. I started to tell my story and before I could even finish my sentence, he came running around the corner, yelling, "DUDE I have been struck by lightening ... THREE TIMES!!!!!" Well I lost it and just turned and walked into the other room so i wouldn't laugh in his face - don't want to be totally cold. Another guy, who had heard my prediction and then got stuck listening to the guy finish his lightening experiences, came into the other room and said I had missed the best part. In addition to getting struck by lightening 3 times, he had also been carried away by a tornado, washed down the canyon in a flash flood, and survived an earthquake. So basically I worked with the Highlander. So that's kind of cool.
