2. The movie X's plot has striking similarities with Harlan Ellison's short story
trilogy, "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream", "Soldier" and "Demon With a
Glass Hand".
Though Ellison was not acknowledged for any inspiration, the director Y did
an interview with Starlog magazine, where he was asked where he got the
idea for X. He was reported to have bragged that he ripped off a couple of
Harlan Ellison stories.
Unfortunately for Y, Ellison was friends with some of the staff there, who
leaked him the original draft of the interview containing the admission and
took Y to court. They ended up settling, and to this very day, Harlan Ellison
has an "Acknowledgement" credit on X.

10. He was 6'4" tall and weighed 250 pounds and was national
heavyweight champion of his country for nine years, from
1951-1960. He excelled at swimming, basketball and rugby too.
When he received complaints from his fellow boxers that white
judges were cheating them he paved an immediate solution for
this. He advised the boxers to knock out their opponents as a
means of countering the controversial decisions. During his
time, his national boxing team, the Bombers, was ranked 3rd in
the world in amateur boxing. Not known for his tact, he once
sent a sneering telegram to his neighbor: "I love you very much,
and if you had been a woman, I would have considered
marrying you, although your head is full of gray hairs. But as
you are a man, that possibility does not arise." He later
challenged the neighbor to a boxing match. Name this
“gentleman”.
