Marc Gussen is the man. Half the year he lives alone in a cabin in the middle of the jersey woods, and in other the six months lives off the coast of mexico sleeping on the beach and spearfishing to sustain himself. Marc built the world's most powerful pumpkin Catapult. Look it up.

Women flock to him in droves, and men want to be constantly be around him. Marc's the shit, and he knows it.

A few years ago I was fishing with Marc, and I turned to him and said, "Marc, you are the man. You really are. I have nothing but respect for the way you choose to exist, but it's so clear from the way you act and talk to others that you honestly think you're the coolest guy alive. What's up with that?"

Marc turned to me and said, "You're right. But you know what? If you're not waking up every morning thinking you're the man, you're doing something wrong."
