I used to believe that a light bulb would light up if I put it in my mouth. I guess this belief started when on Small Wonder (I forget what episode) Ted Lawson used Vicki the Robot to test a light bulb by putting it in her/its mouth.

When I was 13, I loved Dragonball Z. So I thought if I thought hard enough I could fly and make KameHameHa's. One day I was showing off to my friend, thinking I could make a KameHameHa like Goku did. I strained my muscles really hard and put my hands close to gether and yelled "Kame-Hame-HA!!!" but because I was trying so hard I ending up farting instead...

I used to be like obsessed with those animorph books, and so i would try to 'absorb' my cat and i would sit there for hours with my eyes closed trying to change into one, and i would look down at my hand after i thougt i had 'morphed' and then cry when i saw it was a regular human hand. I did that till i was 12, and never once did i become a cat. :(

I watched this show with some superhero or something and he flew and so I figured if I tied a garbage bag around me on a windy day and I jumped off the deck (we had a two story house by the way) that i could fly and I did thank goodness the trampoline was under me i only ended up with a sprained wrist.

Well when i was about 7 or 8, i thought i could switch from being a girl to a boy and back just by going in the freezer for ten seconds and then coming out! My sister was 5 at the time and she believed every word i ever said about this situation. i actually thought i had the coolest super power ever! but one night when the subject was brought up at dinner my my sister, my mother gave me a huge speech about how i was a girl and that was it. I refused to listen so she asked me to go in the freezer and see if i came out a boy....needless to say...i didnt.

When I was about five or six, my mom told me that there was a machine that I could plug into my belly button and let me fly around my room. I had no idea she was joking and I really thought that this machine existed for about a year or so.

When my sister and I were little I convinced her that if she ran fast enough that she could fly. She would run around in circles real fast but of course she would never actaully take off.

— Britt

I used to believe that I could use the Force, just like Luke Skywalker from the Star Wars movies. I would sit endlessly, arm pointing at some object across the room, trying to move it with my mind. I tried imagining what the object would feel like if it were in my hand. I tried picturing the object moving across the room and into my hand. I tried thinking of a field of energy that would come out of my hand and envelop the object, like a tractor beam. Nothing ever worked. That Yoda's full of baloney!

— leelo

as a child i had 'speedy boots' these were imaginary shoes which i wore that made me go much faster like sonic the hedgehogs shoes... unfortunatley mine needed imaginary fuel which i would stop in any place to fill up on, like the middle of the supermarket, road or classes!
