When I was little, one time I was pulling the hairs on my brother's legs. He made me promise to stop, cross my heart and hope to die. So I did. Then I did it again. He said that since I crossed my heart and hoped to die and thenbroke the promise, I would die in my sleep that night!
I was so frightened that I would not go to bed that night. I cried so much and got so upset that my mother called the doctor. He said nothing was wrong with me.
Imagine my great relief when I woke up the next morning, and discovered that I was still alive!
