The Greatest Con Artists in History

Описание: Let’s be honest. Selling a used car is hard enough. But selling the Eiffel Tower? For scrap metal? And getting away with it... TWICE? That takes a special kind of genius.

In this video, we are ranking the Top 7 Greatest Con Artists in Human History. These aren't your average pickpockets. These are the masters of manipulation, the kings of charisma, and the geniuses of deception who fooled governments, banks, and even the Nazis.

From a man who sold a completely fake country to settlers, to a "surgeon" who saved lives during the Korean War using only a textbook, these stories are almost too crazy to be true.

Victor Lustig: The man who sold the Eiffel Tower.

Wilhelm Voigt: The cobbler who took over a German town just by wearing a uniform.
