When I was small I believed that humans could fly. I believed that no one had ever bothered to learn and that was why we didn't. So me and my friends were determined to try.
We'd run along benches in the schoolyard and flap our arms like crazy when we jumped off the end.
One of my friends forgot to land on their feet and landed on two teeth, breaking them totally and bruising her face badly.
We then realised that humans just weren't supposed to fly...
