Question 528: Put one over me

This man is one tough son-offa-gun.

Interviewed by Naomi Campbell, he spent no time hesitating to rip her a new one.
Once made a famous quote attacking President Bush's silly little Scottish Terrier, the infamous Barney; saying that the dogs from his country "mean" business.
His hobbies include white water rafting on his country's notorious rapids, bareback riding, motorbike racing, judo fighting, hiking shirtless in the Cedar forests and swimming the butterfly to escape freezing in cold lakes.
A raving animal conservationist, he is responsible for the very successful national Tiger protection program, and has extended his obvious influences to protect the bears as well; citing them to be examples of how his father fought the wars. He's even taken the head honchos of government on a tiger-spotting trip in the wild.
He spent his spare time spying on visiting heads of state, often blending in with the crowd in now infamously bad disguises.


Give me his name.

Question 527: Can't think of a title.


What's this?

Edith Shain, Greta Friedman and Barbara Sokol.

All these people have something in common with regard to an event that occured in 1945. Over the years they've all made claims about how it was them and have made great efforts to prove it.

What was the event and what did they claim?

Question 524: Move Over Casanova




This famous philanderer and con artist is considered as the original master of disguise. Even though he was mostly occupied with women and scams, he occasionally lent his expertise to the police to aid them in their pursuit of his fellow tradesmen. He is credited with founding the worlds first criminal agency and as the father of criminology. He was renowned for for his uncanny knack for dressing up like a woman, a skill he originally developed to accompany his slightly older and unhappily married mistresses on family vacations when he was young. His account of his rather colorful life should be made required reading for all of us who frequents a quiz blogs. And needless to say he was French.

Name the guy

Question 523: It is ON!









These three pictures connect to a rather enterprising man.
Who?
Explain your answer.
