When I was about six or seven, I used to believe that if I sat on the toilet while it flushed it would suck me in. So every time, I would finish doing my business, then stand about three feet away from the toilet. The moment I flushed the toilet, I would run as fast as I could out of the bathroom. I only found out about a year later from my mom who reassured me that it was physically impossible for the toilet to suck me in.
