Who do you know has had the most unconventional journey to IB?

IB seems to have a pretty conventional pathway from undergrad to a FT offer. You intern in something finance-related before junior summer, you get the junior year internship, and you either get a return offer or you recruit for other FT offers. I was just wondering if you guys personally have had or heard of someone who has had, an unconventional journey to IB.
