Alan Abel

I guess this guy is fairly well known, but not well enough or he wouldn't have been able to pull all of these off. I first heard about him in March after an interview with him on the radio, that talked about his "Anti-Breastfeeding" hoaxes. Tonight I found a note I had written to remind myself to look him up. All of his hoaxes that were successful are pretty funny. I'd like to know what he tried and didn't work. I am glad to see that there's a documentary about him too.

Here's a timeline of Alan Abel's media hoaxes

and some examples:
