I thought when someone was cremated, their body was put into a huge butter churn and they were, well, "cremated"!
A friend of my mum's had gotten divorced but aged about 9 I didn't know that, I just knew the guy's wife had disappeared and so when I used his bathroom one day I sw that the shower curtain was pulled shut so obviously my mum's friend had murdered his wife and left her body in the bath.
I used to think that if you stayed up all night twice, you'd die! My mom probably told me that to keep me from staying up too late. :P
I used to belive that the New Years ball exploded, and people who were near it died.
its not my belief but my 7 yr old sons.After his great grandfathers death,we had to go find a plot to put his ashes in and took master 7 with us.We found one which was a 30cm square.He wondered how he'd fit in there he was too big to be queezed in there
For some odd reason, when I was a kid, I used to believe that if I died, I would still see the world through someone else's eyes, maybe like reincarnation, I don't know. But that ended one day when someone asked me if I can see the world through someone else's eyes when I'm asleep. Guess not. heh.
I used to believe that when i died it was like a super mario game... I had a certain number of lives.
When i was liitle i always thought when people died they ALWAYS had their toungues out so when i was playing dead i stuck my toungue out and people always wondered what i was doing...my sister told me later that people usually have their mouths closed but i didn't believe her and just kept sticking my toungue out ....well now i know better
I use to think that when ever my parents and I had went to a open house that was for sale ...i use to think that their was always someone who died in there .. i was so afriad i would't touch anything cause i thought that the spirit would come to haunt you for the rest of your life!
Until I was about 12 years old or so, I thought Heaven was on the Moon. My grandfather had died when I was young and whenever I asked Granny where he was, she would point to the Moon. Needless to say, seeing Neil Armstrong step foot on "Heaven" was disconcerting.
I use to think that dead people were really dead if worms and a little creep thing crawled on them and they don't say ahhhhhh!
When I was little, I overheard my mother and grandmother talking about my great grandmother who was dying of cancer and was jaundiced and I remember them talking about how yellow her skin was. From then on, I thought that if you colored your skin with a yellow highlighter or marker, you would get cancer and die. I still get a little freaked out if I get some on my hand. Kids associate the wierdest things.
when my uncle died a couple of days ago i thought he had cancer but he hanged himself
I used to beleive that if you point at a graveyard, it would point back!!(whatever that meant)
I used to think that every one in the world was in a big-big-big room and you would tell your story and say like all the little details like i bought this and i stole that and the i thought that at the end, when you die it would be manditory to say "The End"
when i was little i used to believe that when you died a helicopter came to take you to heaven
I used to believe that there where dead people in the bases of bouncy castles.
when I was little I thought that when you died they removed your head, hence why they called them "dead BODIES". I always pictured a big freezer full of heads, or shelves and shelves of heads in jars, each one carefully labelled.
When I was little I went to my Aunts house for a visit. She had a set of steps paved with smooth tiles that led to the basement. As she led me down the steps she told me to be careful because the steps were a little slippery and you could fall and hurt yourself or even die. I started to look around everywhere and then asked her where all the dead people were. The best part was her answer: "You don't just leave them lying around like that!"
After thinking about it hard, my sister, aged about 6, asked, "Mummy, if people die standing up, can they use them again in shop windows?"
