I used to have a superman-type pajama set, except i was missing the velcro-attached cape (which was taken by my mom). So of course, i believed that the cape was the key to superman's flight capabilities(since i obviously couldn't fly), and for a long time, i swore to people that if superman lost his cape, he wouldn't be able to fly anymore.
