Man Sues Bank of America for 1,784 Billion Trillion Dollars

Bank of America's legal troubles just got multiplied. By a billion trillion! Some dude is suing the bank for $1,784 billion trillion. That's a one followed by 22 digits.

Why? Oh, who even cares. Details after the jump. Have a good weekend.

The sum also dwarfs the world's 2008 gross domestic product of $60 trillion, as estimated by the World Bank.

"These are the kind of numbers you deal with only on a cosmic scale," said Sylvain Cappell, New York University's Silver Professor at the Courant Institute for Mathematical Sciences. "If he thinks Bank of America has branches on every planet in the cosmos, then it might start to make some sense."

Judge Chin gave Chiscolm until October 23 to better explain the basis for his claims, or else see his complaint dismissed.

Hilarious. Asking somebody to "better explain" the basis of a multi-sextillion-dollar suit is like saying "I won't believe you rode that unicorn to Disney Land unless you give me a better description of its coat color. Are we talking off-white or cream?"
