I could never understand why I couldn't see the blinking eyes of the camera man when I was watching T.V. I thought that what I saw on the screen was what HE saw, so surely I should see his eyelids every now and again...
A childhood belief about tv
others believed things like this
- I used to believe that if I pushed down on my upper eyelids too much, my eyes would pop out.— I Still Don't Touch My Eyelids
- I don't know why, but for some reason I thought that blinking your eyes powered your speech.Anon
- If you look at a screen too long, your eyes will turn square.Anon
- I always thought you could break through the tv screen and walk into whatever was on the screen at the time.— Linda
- I thought if you point the video camera at the TV then both the video camera and the TV will explode.
Anon - I can remember thinking that is I hid my eyes, and couldn't see anybody that they couldn't see me.Anon
