The Top Ten Who Never Lived

Three "rowdy philosophers" from New Jersey have ranked the 101 most influential people who never lived in a new book.  Allan Lazar, Dan Karlan and Jeremy Slater wanted to show how "characters of fiction, myth, legends, television and myth have shaped our society, changed our behavior and set the course of history."

Here are the top ten.

1. The Marlboro Man
2. Big Brother
3. King Arthur
4. Santa Claus
5. Hamlet
6. Dr Frankenstein's Monster
7. Siegfried
8. Sherlock Holmes
9. Romeo and Juliet
10. Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde

You can find the entire list at 101influential and leave your own comments once they get the site working correctly
