I once caught a cab in Belfast and, in the 15 or so minutes, the driver revealed he was a former paramilitary fighter, and recounted a conspiracy theory about the sinking of the Titanic having been faked as an insurance scam.

    They really went the extra mile on the scam to put a boat on the bottom of the sea. Say what you will, but you gotta give it to them for their commitment to the bit.

    It's especially high-effort considering that the front fell off and is now nowhere near the rest of the boat.

    Ive heard the world bank/some kind of monetary policy theory, but I don't think I've heard the insurance scam before.
