Chris Buchanan or him being invited by the Viceroy of Malaysia. Then again if you're looking for someone who's been invited by viceroys to hunt mythical beasts, Blessed is probably at the top of your list. It's kinda like Christopher Lee being on the show and reading off the card "while I was in the OSS, I strangled seventeen Nazis to death with my bare hands." You just don't bloody ask questions because you KNOW it's true cos it's him.

Brian once told a story of a little girl who spoke to him which made her parents burst out crying. He asked them why they were crying and they said she had never spoken before! One newspaper was determined this was a lie so they sought out the parents who confirmed it was actually true. The girl suffered from selective mutism and for some reason Brians voice or behavior triggered her will to speak. Never doubt his stories.

So, an eccentric master thespian is invited by an Indonesian dignitary to the Jungles of the Orient to hunt a Tropical Yeti, only to be navigated down a river by an orangutan, which later became the inspiration for the mannerisms of a fictional character from of the single most profitable franchise in recorded history (adjusted for inflation)?
