[Movie] Is the Voynich Manuscript an Elaborate Medieval Hoax?

- The Hitler diaries were a series of sixty volumes of journals.

- Doug+Dave spent a couple of hours traipsing around a Kentish field at midnight crushing wheatstalks below their feet
  knowing that their 'work' may not be seen let alone getting paid for it and they did it repeatedly for years.

Well, the Hitler diaries were produced in order to sell them to the magazine "Stern". So there was clearly a financial interest in the foreground here.

With regard to your second example, I would assume that it is exclusively about self-realization. It is difficult for me to assume that a complete manuscript was created out of this need.

The reasons humans have for doing stuff is as varied as the number of humans itself.

According to Maslow, the needs of people, i.e. the drive to do something, can be represented hierarchically. People do not do things randomly. Seen from this perspective, the variability of the motivation is probably rather lower than one might generally assume.
