I have 2 older sisters and when i was young, i used to be able to hear them walking aroung outside my door. I used to think they were aliens (i blame the movie Mars Attack for that!) and whenever they went past i would pretend to be dead so they wouldn't zap me with their death ray.
Some nights my mum would come in to put away my clothes or something like that(when she thought i was asleep) and i would hold my breath for around 2 mins so the alien couldn't hear me.
One night i let out my breath with a long "paaaaaaah" sound and she came over to look at me. I screamed and ran out the door.
