Bosses that are impossible to solo?

Hi, I'm a warlock who's recently started trying to solo old world raids, and I was wondering if there was a list available of dungeons that would be impossible for people to solo (due to mechanics), possibly with a mention of how many people you would need to bring with you to make the fight possible.
Many thanks in advance, hopefully this will stop me hitting my head against a brick wall trying to kill an impossible boss :P

first boss of AQ 40 mind controls you. hard to kill the boss when you are being possessed....
also, in the same instance, the last two guys (counted as one encounter) need to be tanked separately. i guess you could tank one while your demon tanked the other, but it'd still be tough.

ZG should be doable, beware of the axethrowers though, they can end stuff pretty easily, but maybe they're more dangerous to melee than to casters.
Pretty sure you can't solo Hakkar since he mind controls as well. I can't 100% verify that he is non soloable though.

He doesnt use it when there is only one target, ie: if you have a pet you can't solo it.

I have killed Hakkar on my tankadin, as well as all of ZG. He is pretty annoying though...

Old school,
-Twin Emps are all but impossible at the moment. Pet tanking will be needed, and pet passive healing of some sort.
-Razorgore cannot be done.
-C'thun phase 2 cannot be done.
Then with BC+ fights, just about every boss has an enrage timer which would make it that much harder to do. That aside,
-Naj'entus is possible, you need to kill him before first spike (30 seconds?), a crap ton of DPS.
-gonna call RoS impossible between eventual instant cast Spirit Shocks (a disorient), and Aura of Desire, phase 2 looks not good.
-Illidan is impossible. Shadow demons will stun you, and insta-kill you.
-Azgalor casts Doom at 30-40 seconds, so, 50k dps needed? Possible, eventually.
-Archimonde isn't possible. If he punts you, no one is in melee range, and he'll spam 20k hits at you until you die.
-Kalecgos is impossible. He can't cast portals at the MT, and if you're the only person, there's no portals. Even then, if you enter it, and no one's left to tank him, I think he'll reset.
-Brutallus we'll call a mathematical block. Meteor Slash can't be avoided, and does 20k guaranteed. Next shot,10 seconds later, it'll do 75% more.
Wrath is still too new to really worry about solo'ing.

How do you start raid instances solo anyway? That's something I've been wondering for quite a while now, since I plan on soloing as well. (Later, much, much later, though)
The normal 5-mans I understand, they don't have any restriction. But I though to start raid instances you have to be in a raid?

Bosses don't MC unless there are two targets in combat with them. The first boss of AQ40 IS soloable, but only if you are nature resist capped (After the split he will start spamming 5k Earthshocks on you -- without capped nature resist these WILL kill you).

Or
1) be on an alt yourself
2) form raid group with somebody, (make sure he's the group leader for no waiting time)
3) relog to main char, get invited
4) other person can leave and you have a raid group for as long as you want, without possible interference
