For sure. Huge Nibbler loved to tell people he literally brushed shoulders with Hitler. And no, I’m not making that up.
That sounds ever-so-vaguely-familiar for some reason. But I'm sure it's complete malarkey, of course. Will you please re-familiarize us with the tale?

I read his autobiography and posted my observations on a thread that’s on the old board. His son compiled all the talking points from Nibley’s journals. One of the bits that stood out was Nibley’s Gumpian account of bumping into Hitler, like literally brushing past him. -_-

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.
