I wonder, though, if there's something legitimately wrong with him. I mean, some actual mental deterioration. I say that because some of these stories he's told ages ago, or have been rumored or alleged, but they haven't been nearly stretched and fabricated to the point where they are now. Things he's heard about turned into events he's witnessed firsthand. Documented things he has done have progressively gotten grander and grander with the passage of time not merely because he's a habitual liar, but because there is some sort of illness or debilitation that makes him actually believe it happened that way now.
Or maybe he's trying to spin some real-life yarn and hoping to be understood by his family like the movie Big Fish. Though, at this point, it wouldn't surprise me if Hogan said he wrote that script.

Wouldn't surprise me if there was some deteoration there, but i think it's more down to him just being a habitual liar. Back in the 70's 80's and 90's you could say almost anything and get away with it as fact checking was much harder, these days with the internet you can debunk something in seconds. Hogan has just been in the habit of exagerrating and lying for decades so it's literally a kneejerk thing for him to do, it's like the lie passes his lips before he even considers the question.
So naturally these days people can look something up that he claims and come to a conclusion about it pretty quick. It's like he's clueless about how quick people can look things up and he still thinks its 1984.
