American prisoner Jonathan Lee Richards became a figure in the famous Guinness Book of Records thanks to his hard work.

He didn't disappear for days in the gym, didn't do anything with his hands, but just wrote lawsuits. He even wanted to sue the Guinness Book of Records itself.

Who did Richards want to sue?

In fact, the American achieved absolutely nothing by sending his complaints to various authorities.

Since 2006, the man has filed between 2,600 and 4,000 lawsuits against organizations and individuals.

Richards is known to have sought justice by trying to sue:

  • with Bill Gates;
  • Pope Benedict XVI;
  • the developers of the GTA game (allegedly it brought him to the dock);
  • US President George W. Bush;
  • Britney Spears.

What's more interesting is that Richards had some complaints:

  • to Ernesto Che Guevara;
  • Roman Empire;
  • the soothsayer Nostradamus;
  • and also to the Eiffel Tower, Somali pirates and Scandinavian gods.

You can be sure that as long as there is injustice in the world, there will be a Jonathan Lee Riches, ink, pen and paper to combat it.
