When I was about 5, we lived right near the ocean, and my mom and I would often take walks on the beach. One day, I saw flying fish for the first time, and I thought for sure that they would fly out of the water one night and get me. I refused to call them flying fish, and instead called them "devil fish". I was deathly afraid of them for quite a while, and I still don't really like them.
