I know someone who would say he knows the CFO of a company and he openes the door for an opportunity for SAP while in reality he was merely participating the customer meeting once and was never involved thereafter. And the same person also claimed his running records in a corporate run event was sub 30 mins to everyone but on the event record page, his timing was 50+ mins.

Showboating = insecurity. This aligns with the people that can talk 15 minutes about something that takes one sentence.
