An Icelandic teenager tricked the White House into thinking he was Iceland's President Olafur Ragnar Grimsson.
Vifill Atlason, 16, called the general switchboard number claiming to be the Icelandic leader and asked to speak to President George W Bush.
He was passed around but says he got through to Mr Bush's private secretary and set up a phone meeting with him.
Great guy! :D Heard it today morning from radio. They said that when he was asked of where did he get the phone number, he said "I think I got it from a friend when I was about 12". Having connections is invaluable! :D
