    Not very mysterious mystery. He was 17, at that time hardly a boy. He was probably just a con man that got lucky

      He “learned” to read and write in two weeks. I’d say no probably about him being a con man.

        Did he or he just pretended? That is what it looks like

          That’s why I put learned in quotes. It was a con. He was pretending. He also lied constantly and got caught doing it all the time.

      Not sure if I would call having multiple assassination attempts on you and then getting stabbed being lucky xD

        As the article points out, there’s a lot of holes in his assassination claims. He could have done those to himself

          Yeah he admitted to shooting himself in the second “attempt”. It’s totally plausible that he stabbed himself on the third occasion but fucked up and nicked something important.

    Fascinating. Never heard of this guy until now. Based on that picture, Hauser was definitely lying about his age.
