I knew a man in his 40s that believed monks could levitate and stop bullet with their mind. He didn't believe in washing and lived free in his brother's empty appartment, and living on part of his dad's fortune.

He looked totally "normal", educated and comfortable financially, but if you got close to him or had him to talk for more than a couple minutes... oof!!
