Twitter users share stories so wild they sound like lies – including one who was exorcised as a teen

Sometimes things are just too far fetched to believe, but these Twitter users are insisting their wild stories are completely true.  

After Twitter user Aidan Moher, from Vancouver, Canada, shared some of his crazy anecdotes, he asked his followers to share some of their most baffling tales in a thread

The author told how he was once mistaken for ‘Breaking Bad’ star Aaron Paul and spent the night in a hostel across the street from Queen Elizabeth while in Ljubljana, Slovenia. 

But even he admitted that his ‘tame’ stories were surpassed by the flow of incredible tales that followed, including paranormal encounters, near-misses in dangerous situations, and a web designer who turned down business from pre-fame Taylor Swift.
