My father had a poster (I'm sur eyou've all seen it) Of a giant ape climbing out of a toilet. Well my brother beleived that if he sat on the toilet too long an ape would come out and eat you. I beleived that if you fell in the toilet (we had big ones and it was very easy to do this when your 3) you would turn into an ape. Imagine my terror when my other brother who was about 10 tried to flush me down.
A childhood belief about fear of
