Top Gun was about drugs. The phrase “I feel the need for speed” had a different meaning entirely. The drugs were delivered by fast jets, but in one scene a pilot can barely land on the air craft carrier deck as he’s been sampling the product.

Stephen Hawking, together with Brian Cox formed the band Big Bang in the 1980s. It was a pop voice synth band.

Jackson Pollock, the supposed abstract expressionist painter, was no such thing.
The works of art were in fact done by the family pet dog, "Sardine", a labrador cross, whose real identity was cunningly disguised by choosing a different fish to credit with his output.
The breed "Labradoodle" was, of course, named in honour of his canine doodling.

"Trigonometry", the study of angles, was named after the three gonads possessed by its founder, nicknamed Euclit, who as "his" name suggests, was also the proud owner of both male and female genitals.
The prudish Victorians naturally referred to "him" as Euclid, and the truth of the ancient Greek intersex intellectual hero(ine) was thus buried forever.
