True or False?

Had my first Principles of Marketing tutorial today with Dave and I must say, one of the more enjoyable tutes I've had in a while (who am I kidding, all tutorials have sucked!).

Anyway our tutor, Alexander asked us to state five things about ourselves but make one untrue. Realised the ethnic diversity in the class including a Vietnamese girl, Japanese chick, half-Chilean dude, chick from New York and a girl born in Dubai, but mainly found out some pretty interesting things about people;

Alexander our tutor...
- is a member of MENSA
- had a girlfriend who is an Indonesian movie star
- had someone killed (without his knowledge)
- won $60,000US from playing games
- bribed top level management of Petro (huge oil company)
- did NOT dive 106m below sea level - he later told us it was more like 40m

Dave...
- had a shard of glass stuck in his ear for years
- walked across a set of traffic lights in a g-string
- busked in Southbank doing mime
- asked by a construction worker on the train if he'd like to suck his...
- did NOT deal amateur porn in high school (jury's still out on this one)

Mine were pretty tame in comparison...
- never broken a bone in my body
- was a ballboy at the Australian Open
- played the drums, piano, saxaphone, guitar and violin
- have three dogs, Kevin, Kevin Jnr (KJ) and Kevin Jnr Jnr (JJ)
- have nine trophies with eight of them being tennis ones

For most of you, it's pretty obvious which one the fake one is so here's a set made specially for you smarty-pants out there. Choose the false statement about me:
- watched Pulp Fiction 23 times
- remember 40+ ppls' birthdays for no reason at all
- committed credit card fraud
- won the spelling bees in Grade 5 through to Year 8
- served Tara Moss, Julie Andrews, Madeleine West, John Elliott and John Brumby during my years at David Jones
- attempted to steal (I prefer liberate myself but whatever) the student time capsule at Xavier College
- walked from the former Salt nightclub to Kew Junction after clubbing one night
