I used to believe that unicorns truly existed because I saw one at the circus as a kid. For years I would defend what I saw, then I realized it was just a white horse with a horn attached to its head and a beard to its chin. However, I still want to believe in unicorns.

this kid in my class beleived he was a cheetah. he would act like one most of the time, and would pretend to chew on the desk and stuff like that. I thought it was funny to tell him that everytime I ripped a page out of the National Geographic a cheetah would die. I think he really beleived me because he got pretty upset. I thought it was hysterical and kept ripping out pages and saying "oh look another cheetah just died!"

I heard that dinosaurs were under the ground, so every time I saw a hill, I thought that was where a dinosaur fell and grass just grew over it.

My cousin used to think that the name for polar bears was 'snowlar' bears, because they lived in the snow.

I used to think guerrillas were the same as gorillas. Imagine how scared I was when I saw Planet of the apes as a kid.

I was told by my Dad that mountain goats' right legs were shorter than their left legs so they could walk round and round the mountain, upright. I always believed this up until my teens and probably passed on this misinformation to many of my peers.

I lived in a small country village when I was a child. My best friend's uncle owned a local farm and we went to visit him. He showed us his newly born calves. When we returned home I told my mum that my friend's uncle Ted had shown us his bollocks.

on a family holiday we were travelling to an unfamiliar area that had a lot of farming. In the taxi ride from the airport my younger brother aged 2 pointed excitedly at some cows in a field 'look mummy! goats!'. I, the all-knowing 4 yr old corrected him immediately. 'Don't be silly Edward, they're not goats, they're catholics'. Apparently the taxi driver nearly drove off the road..shaking with laughter.

As I very small girl I used to believe that corned beef came from those cows with a pattern of ragged red-brown patches on their hides. That pattern rather resembling corned beef, I imagined the cows were simply sliced up, in some mysterious way which wouldn't hurt them.
