Until I was about 9 years old, I periodically considered the possibility that I was the only real person anywhere. The world I lived in was a realistic alien-induced hallucination, and that when I walked anywhere, I actually remained stationary on a sphere (think of a treadmill that goes in all directions). At times, I would suddenly change my behavior, to throw the aliens off track.
This started long before The Matrix, or even Star Trek's holodeck came out. :\
