Jara Cimrman and Asteroid 7796 Jaracimrman, Prague, Czech Republic - Extraterrestrial Locations on Waymarking.com

Jára (da) Cimrman is a Czech fictional character created by Czech actors Jirí Šebánek, Ladislav Smoljak and Zdenek Sverák. He is presented as one of the greatest Czech playwrights, poets, composers, teachers, travellers, philosophers, inventors, detectives, mathematicians and sportsmen of the 19th and early 20th century. Playing the game on his real existence is part of his characterization.

In early 2005, the Czech Television started a contest to choose The Greatest Czech (inspired by the British show 100 Greatest Britons). The obvious candidates included pop singers, Czech kings and national heroes. Surprisingly, on January 15 it seemed that most of the votes (by SMS, the Internet or mail) had gone to Jára Cimrman.
