I used to think that spiders could fly if they wanted to, even though everyone kept telling me they couldn't. I ahve a strange memory of a big orange spider "flying" down into my face when I was about 3 years old on my swingset. I also later believe they could pack up their webs and use them as parachutes to jump down from tall places. Later, in science class, I learned this was false. Silly me!
