Whats the craziest market call or investment you've seen? Can be positive or negative?

Saw Cathie Woods today on CNBC talking about the "base case" for bit coin being ~$600k. Just made me think, would be crazy if it worked out. 

Wanted to pick everyone's brain about the craziest market call or investment they've ever seen or heard about. I would assume the most money making ones are ideas like Michael Burry in the Big short or something around the tech crash or prior market crashes/corrections.
