When i was little, my mom used to always say that she had eyes in the back of her head so i believed her. One time I even swore i saw an eyeball but of course that was just my imagination.
Once, I asked her what was behind her when she had her back turned and she said "my robe". And of course that was correct. I remember being so startled...
