Imagine sitting in a high-end Parisian café when a sophisticated gentleman reveals a state secret: the French government can no longer afford to maintain the Eiffel Tower and is looking to sell it for scrap metal. It sounds absurd, doesn't it? Yet, Victor Lustig not only made this lie believable—he managed to sell the Eiffel Tower twice!😄
In this documentary, we revisit the case file of the con artist who sent shockwaves through the world after World War I. Using the chaotic atmosphere of post-war Paris and a single newspaper clipping, Lustig lured the city’s top scrap metal dealers to the negotiating table.
In this video, you will discover:
How Lustig used forged documents to pose as the Deputy Director of the Ministry of Posts and Telegraphs.
The psychological trickery that forced his first victim to remain silent instead of going to the police.
His daring plan to flip the same landmark a second time just months after his first escape.
The eventual downfall of "The Count" and his final days in the infamous Alcatraz prison.
