I used to believe I could fly because one time I jumped off a swing and went four feet high for 10 seconds and another time I fell down the stairs but I didn't fall down until I landed on my feet on the floor(not the stairs) the flying theory was disproved when I knew that the wind blew me up when I jumped off the swing and being religious, I think my guardian angel lifted me off the ground and carried me to the ground. but i'm not jewish

I thing I had a really high fever. But, when I was a kid, I for some reason thought that Michael Jackson had the ability to start and stop time by touching his thumb to his forefinger. It was weird. Too much Small Wonder, I think.

i started to believe that i had special powers when i was like 7.I believed that i could talk to my pets telepathiclly(and my pets talked back),that i could read people's minds,that i could pick up things with my mind and that i had other powers that i can't remember.
Talking to pets- when we would always come home from shopping or something there would be trash on the floor from the dog and my mom asked who did it.Then i'd ask the dog telepathiclly.the i would look at my mom and tell her that the dog said that bill(i tought that he was my dog's imaginary friend) did it.She would play along too.
reading people mind's- i started believeing this because i would finsh my mom's sentences before she did she always sadi i read her mind.
about picking up things with my mind i read it in some fanisty book for little kids i thought it was ture.People even told me i could but i didn't listen i always thought i could.
sorry enough to say that when i started 6th grade one of the teahcers sent mme to the guidence consular because they thought i had some porblems.Then the guidence consular had me tell the story about it then she told me i couldn't do any of those things(and that bill wasn't real). I had to go back every day(only about 2 1/2 weeks) until i finally stoped saying i could do those things.

I used to believe that, when I was walking in the bush, if I walked between two trees which were exactly the same type, length, age etc., I would actually be walking through a portal and would disappear into another world. Never worked......

I have strabismus, which means my eyes do not operate in concert to provide a 3-D image. As a result, when I look at an object close to my face, it can seem as though the background (seen through one eye) is superimposed on the object (seen through the other eye). As a kid, I thought this meant that I could see through things, which is exactly what it looks like.

when i was younger, i decided that it could actually be possible to fly. myself and a friend tied planks of wood to our arms and jumped off some rocks onto a beach. to this day i still claim that i "flew" further than i would have without the wood.... but it hurt considerably more with it.

I used to think that everyone had a certain amount of phsycic energy. Me and my friends would think of numbers from 1-100 and try to 'pick up' what it was. The scary thing was, we were always close and sometimes got it right, I still beleive it today! The people who know about this think it's mad, but life would be boring without some magic wouldn't it?

I think I'm phsycic

When I was about 8 I used to lie very very still in my bed, and stare at the cieling, untill I had the most fantastic feeling of floating. One night as my eye started to dry out from staring, and I started to fall asleep, I realy felt like I was about 12" away from the cieling. This so startled me that I "fell back onto my bed". I must have jumped about 6" of my bed with shock. For ages i realy believed that I had levitated and ever since I've tried to recreate the feeling, it was great.

I used to believe that I could run faster than the cars on the highway. I'd always ask my parents to let me out of the car so I could run to grandma's house to get there quicker.

When I was a kid, I thought my mother's pinky (finger) had special powers, because every time I had done something I wasn't supposed to, my mother said she knew about it. And when I asked her how, she told me it was her pinky who'd told her.

When I was young, my brother and I used to believe that dranking a whole glass of water really fast without stopping to take a breath would give us super strength. We actually tested it. We tried to lift up one end of our very heavy living room couch but couldn't do it. Then we did our water trick and lo-and-behold-we lifted the end of the couch! The power of the mind!

I discovered masturbation long before I had heard the facts of life or even liked boys at all. I didn't associate with anything sexual, and I had no idea what it was. I assumed I must have discovered some special power and that I was the only person in the world who knew how to do it.

I remember a lot of my dreams, very vividly. I had one re-occuring dream that I was outside in my driveway and went into my garage. I'd run out of the garage run in a circle and jump twice and when I jumped the third time I'd be flying.

When I woke up, I'd believe it, still do to some extent. My grade six teacher didn't help any when he taught us to fly with out minds. Relaxing ourselves to the point where your spirit or mind can fly around the city with amazingly precise detail.

I think he's an alien....

I used to think that I had the power to tell the future, but it only happened very rarely in a dream. I was really excited about this new toy coming out when I went to bed. In my dream, I was at this dimly lit shop, very huge, very confusing, and although I never saw it, the walls must've changed positions at points. There was this tiny gap between shelves, so I squeezed in and there they were, the toys I mentioned earlier. I grabbed one and headed out, but could never find that gap again. When I woke up, I could've sworn that the toy I bought was in the computer room. What's scary, though, is when I later bought the exact toy in real life, the shape and pictures were exactly the same as in my dream.

I used to believe that I could stop time. One time at a friend's birthday party I snapped my fingers, grabbed an extra goodie bag and snapped them again. The mothers were all at the back, and laughed when my mother explained.

When I was about six years old I thought I had the ability to see through little things. When you stare some things for a while it gets distorted and sortof doubles up so it looks like a hole. So during snack time I'd hold a potato chip over an eye and tell everone I could see through. The sad part is I was really serious and did realize everyone was giving me funny looks.
