ANSWER TO BONUS QUESTION:

In 1920, two young cousins, Frances Griffith and Elsie Wright, took pictures of themselves posing with fairies.  The photos were declared genuine by a photographer, and published in a magazine along with an article written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the author of the Sherlock Holmes books.

This "evidence that fairies exist" sparked international attention--and much skepticism.  It was not until 1981 that Elsie Wright, now elderly, admitted she had sketched the fairies from a story book and set them in place with hat pins.
