When I was about 7 or so, my aunt had passed away. So for about the next 2 years, on her birthday I'd have my mom buy a balloon filled with helium, I'd write Happy Birthday on it, and let it go, thinking she'd eventually get it.
When I was about nine or ten, I heard for the first time people talking about someone "putting her head in the oven" to kill herself. Of course it's something to do with breathing in the oven fumes, but I didn't know that. I thought if you wanted to kill yourself you had to cook your head, and when it got cooked through completely, you would die.
I used to believe everyone died when they turned 100, and they never died before or after.
when i was little i heard on a movie something about a dead weight. then my brother told me that when people die they gain heaps of weight and are realy hard to carry.i believed this until i was 17 nd sum1 told me it wasnt true.
my mum told me that you should live everyday like it was your last. when she said this, i thought that i was going to die the next day so i did everything that i wanted to do with my friends-that included sharing a cubicle in the girls loos at school! (i was about 6 at the time). when i got home i rang all of my friends up saying i would die soon and they were distraught. the next day when i went into school, they all thought i was a ghost and it took alot of convincing that i wasn't
when i was five i was climbing on a chain link fence. My uncle told me to knock it off, because the rusty metal could give me tetanus. for almost 6 years i was deathly afraid of metal. i wouldn't handle a knife or eat with a fork. even today, tin foil gives me the creeps.
I used to believe that the actors in movies that died actually *did* die while being filmed...I'll never forget watching "Jesus Christ Superstar" and being so sad and yet awed by the fact that the actor "gave up his life" for that role...
I thought that all people lived until their 100th birthday, then they died. It was like an expiration date of sorts ....
When my Nanny used to point out an obituary of someone she knew in the paper, I used to believe that the undertaker at the funeral home somehow propped open the dead guys eyes for his picture!
I still hold my breath when I pass by cemetaries because it is impolite to breathe when other people can't.
