Yes, please do, I do like a tall story.
Actually, all jokes aside, I can believe it.
I once knew a bloke who never used to get his tyres balanced and his left boot wore out before his right one.  :rolleyes

Here I am thinking what the FOC is he on about?  :rolleyes until I reread my post, it should have read 1.3mm not 3mm :biker even I would not have believed 3mm  :oops

Saw a fellow one night in the local town riding pillon sitting backwards on an old 175 Honda holding on to the backrest shouting to all of us as he was passing "look reverse on a 175" when the rider stopped after about 100 metres to see what was going on, the whole lot fell over. We went over to help and discovered both were pissed and the pillion thought he was the rider. 

Oh yeah, my left boot always wears before the right :eek and I always balance my tyre, maybe I should put all the weights on my right boot

1.3 mm could easily be caused by the camber on the road surface.
