When I was little I belived that all I had to do was run around this plant in my yard 5 times and flap my arms.Then I'd become airborne.I tried and it didn't work.Duh....And when I had dreams that I could do it,I kept trying.Which I finally came to the realization of the fact that it won't work.(I was 4 people!Can't blame me!)

When I was little (until about five) I was obsessed with flying. I put my heart and soul into the dream that one day I would be able to finish my training--taping feathers onto my arms and buttocks, then jumping off stuff--and soar off into the sky.

— Katie

When I was younger, I used to believe I was invisible. Every time I would turn "invisible" I would tell everyone around me they couldn't see me. Never dawned on me WHY they couldn't see me

— Just call me Jill

I acutally used to think I could fly. I would jump to one kitchen chair to the next and shout for my mom to come and watch me. but once I finally fell off one of the chairs, I realized this was not true.

I believed that I was the only one in the world that could conjure up a mouthful of water at will (turns out it was saliva). I told my mother I would never have to drink water again because I made my own.

I used to believe that if I looked at something without blinking for a long time, I could move it. Of course, when I tried I couldn't keep my eyes open for more than a few seconds. I also believed that if you jumped off of something and flapped your arms like a bird you would fly. I, being the small idiot I was, tried this with my tree in the front of my apartment. The end result was back pains. Luckily, the tree was only three feet off the ground.

I used to think that if you made funny shadows during a storm blackout you'd lose it and if you didn't have a shadow you'd die.

When I was little, I used to believe I could magically appear in Chicago if I completely covered myself in a sheet on my mom's bed and then spun around and around with the sheet on me. Then I'd take the sheet off my head and I'd ask my mom if I was in Chicago yet.

— TB Samurai

When I was about 3 I thought I could fly. I was going to be a witch for Halloween and all the witches on television could fly. So why couldn't I? I too my broom and my witch hat and jumped off the counter in the kitchen. Needless to say, I learned I couldn't fly the hard way.

— Fallen

I used to believe I was the fastest boy in the world because I once crossed a large gym in four seconds(honestly!)and all these people were wondering how I went that fast.I was 10. Now I feel like I feel like I'm gonna get a heart attack whenever I run that fast.

— Barry Allen

I used to think that some how I could control the weather depending on my emotions, and some times, when I was really upset that the wind would try to comfort me...at least it was fun!

— Silence

I used to think I had the ability of telekinesis (moving objects with your mind). I don't know why I thought this, but one day I invited my friend over and tried to show her. Obviously, I couldn't do it. I just told her my powers weren't working.

— Robyn

I used to believe I had x-ray vision because I could see through objects like my hand if I brought it close to my face. Of course, it was just because it was only covering one eye! Durrr!

— HarryTheHound

I used to believe I could "turn off" my nose at will when there was a nasty smell. I was just breathing through my mouth, but I didn't think anyone else could do it!

— HarryTheHound

My parents always told me that anything was possible if i tried hard enough. Combining that thought with my new knowledge about evolution and how species ajust themselves to the surroundings, i figured that if i walked backwards to school every day, eyes would grow out of my neck. I did that for weeks, but i didn't tell anyone because i wanted it to be a surprise. To my disappointment i couldn't feel anything grow in my neck, so i finally asked my dad how long evolution normally takes. 1000 years sounded a bit too much for me, so i gave it up and went back to my life planting candy in the garden "because how do you know it won't grow if no one has ever tried it before".

I was absolutely convinced that when I held my hand in front of only one eye and left both eyes open, I acquired x-ray vision and could see through my own hand.

A few friends and I were under the impression that we could make the wind blow, whenever we wanted. There was a wooded area with a dirt hill.. and if we sat on the hill and thought real hard about wind blowing, it would blow. Hmm.. the fact that it was Autumn wasn't considered.
