best hacks in the world (Score 1)

The undisputed champions of hacks like these are Canadian: the University of British Columbia Engineers.

While MIT's police car on the dome in 1994 was great, the UBC Engineers do that pretty much every year. Since the seventies, they have placed dozens of their signature red VW Beetles in every imaginable location ranging from bridges and tunnels to stadiums and fountains. Earlier this year you may have heard they hung one from the Golden Gate bridge - deep in enemy territory!! They also gained international notoriety in 1992 when they "acquired" the Rose Bowl trophy from the University of Washington Huskies. Other memorable stunts include blinking the lights on Lions Gate bridge in Morse code and stealing the Speaker's Chair from parliament.

Unfortunately, not much information is available on-line about them, but some information can be found at http://macboy.dyndns.org/engbook.

Yes, I'm biased. Yes, I'm a UBC Engineer. Yes, I did the Morse code bridge stunt.
