When I was young, every summer I would get very tanned and my hair would get blond streaks (normally med. brown) and I believed that if one summer I was out in the sun too much I would turn into an african-american with bleach blond hair.

I used to believe that my stomach was like my best friend. I remember that i would talk to it about my day and about any one i liked. and for the first 15 years of my life my stomach was my best friend. Until we broke up and i got abs.
When I was about 4-8 I belived that the shells with jagged edges inside (I think they are called precua shells) would bite my ear off if I held one up to my ear to hear the ocean.But I still hesataite even though I am 12 now!
My big sis told me that if I talked to my belly button, it might talk back. I was determined to see this. So on a frequent basis, I would lift up my shirt and start talking to my belly button. I tried drawing a face around it to see if it would come to life. I even tried feeding my belly button pop corn....never had any luck. But my belly button and I remain good friends. lol :)
When I was five to six years old, i used to believe that my belly button had a knot tied in it by the doctors when
I was born and that if I were to accidentally untie the knot, my internal organs would spill out.
As a kid I used to play with my belly-button (amongst other things!). My Mum told me that if I wasn't careful I would burst, fly around the room as the air escaped and end up flat as a pancake. I stopped playing with my belly buitton!

I used to think a mustache was just extended nose hair.
when I was 8-9 my big sister told me that babies come from boys and girls bellbuttons so I put tape around my bellybutton(and if a baby comes out of your bellybutton you will get a new one small but new) then if you don't clean your baby's bellybutton the baby gets a baby, so then I asked my sister again (when she was waring a mid-dritf) then she told me the truth,(I almost fanited).

I have been that if you don't clean your bellybutton it grows into a baby and you get a new one.
My grandmother is big. When I was little, I was in the bathroom with her when she was going to the bathroom. I looked at her leg, and said, "that looks like bread" (her cellulite) I thought it was crumbs of bread inside her body!
When i was about 9, there was a girl i was friends with in the grade above me. After the summer holidays, a new girl came to our school and was in her grade. They both looked very similar with the same blonde hair, except this new girl had rather weird eyes, they were big and had dark circles.
Anyway, i thought this new girl was my friend and her eyes had changed because she'd watched too much tv during the holidays and had gotten square eyes!
When I was little, I was always afraid to clean my belly button. I believed that if you stuck your finger in too far, you could get it stuck in your stomach, then all of your digestive juices would come out. Um yeah, I just stopped believing that last year... I had to try it out before I believed it.
I used to watch bodybuilding competitions on TV. I used to believe that the bodybuilders were hairless because their huge muscles had grown up and over their body hair.

Iused to belive that my dad was bald becouse he burnt it of evry day. i was stupid.
When I was child I used to believe If I didn't brush
my teeth before going to bed, they would fall, because my father said me. Sometimes I brushed two times to be sure that they didn't fall.
After watching blue peter it showed a diagram of a person's circulatory system. Half the blood was red and the other hal was blue.
For years, possibly until i was about 13, I believed that some of our blood was blue and couldn't understand why I'd never seen my blue blood before
A friend of the family was very very short (possibly a dwarf) and when i was about 5 I asked her why.
She said it was because her legs got cut in half and i believed her.
Right up until i was about 8 or 9 i pondered how she managed to get her legs in a pair of shoes as i imagined that she had little stumps like tree trunks.
when i was young my sister used to do that thing with her thumb and tell me that she was taking my nose then she would run over to the toilet so id run over there and look in the toilet and every time there was something that looked like my nose so shed flush the toilet and id cry for three days and when id go out with someone id always ask some random person if my nose was in there toilet as i got older i found out that she never took my nose and the thing in the toilet was half of a circus peanut
When my sister was really young, before I was born even( I think ) She had seen the show "the cosby's" and that had been the only place where she had seen dark skin. So one day while at the mall with my mom, a few people with black skin walked by and she yells "look mom! cosby's!"
I was very tall for a kid. I used to pray at night when I went to bed that I wouldn't grow anymore because my much shorter sister told me I would grow up to be a giant and mom and dad wouldn't be able to afford to buy me cloths.
