Munchhausen

The Very Same Munchhausen was created in 1979.

The German raconteur and baron who told ludicrous stories about himself, such as riding a cannonball and traveling to the Moon, was Carl Friedrich Hieronymus, Baron Münchhausen. He became famous for his tall tales, which were later popularized in a book called "Baron Munchausen's Narrative of His Marvellous Travels and Campaigns in Russia."
