Cool story I guess but at the end I'm left wondering how much of it is true and how much is exaggerated just to sound 'cool'. I can't help but pick up quite a bit of arrogance in his answers.

If he actually did do all of that then that kind of tone is not arrogant at all, since it matches reality.
