I used to believe that I could pull my ears off. So every night before going to bed, I would tug relentlesly at my ears! Why I wanted them to come off I don't know!

My wife has an Uncle Bill who used to own a couple bakeries. As a child Uncle Bill lost a portion of his middle finger in a farming accident. My wife along with her bother, sisters and numerous cousins believed for years his explanation as to the shortened finger. He told them that it was wore down from punching all the holes in the donuts.

When I was young I looked at womens feet in high heels and assumed that all women had large pointy appendiges in their heals. So one night after some social outing with the family that required high heeled shoes, we were at home and i saw my mother take off her footwear. To my utter horror and dismay, she had no pointy-thing on her foot. i thought my mother was a mutant and shunned her for days.

When I was about six, I was convinced that people were made out of rubber. I remember sitting on the monkeybars with my best friend, who was very afraid of falling. I told her she was stupid to be afraid, and pushed her off to show her it wouldn't hurt.

Much to my suprise, she didn't bounce!

When I was around four, my mom overheard my little brother ask me "What is the difference between boys and girls." I told him I would show him. My mom trailed nervously behind US as I lead him to a mirror. Imagine her relief when I answered "Girls have barrettes in their hair."

My friend Becca believed that if you held your breath for long enough, the pores on your forehead opened up to allow you to breathe - she nearly passed out!

i used to believe that when u lost ur teeth the toothfairy would come...like any other kid belived...but then i thought that the tooth fairy would put all your teeth in a statue with no teeth, and when the statue was full of teeth, a baby would be born with your teeth!

As we all know, placing a Sea Shell to your ear allows your to hear the sound of the sea. Following the explanation to me of the phrase "I need a word in your shell-like"; which means a word in your ear, I believed you could listen to someone's inner monologue by placing your ear to theirs. Apparently I became quite a pest trying to do this whenever I didn't understand what was going on.

when i was younger, in all the gushers commercials when the kids ate gushers, their head would turn into an orange/watermelon etc. but the commercials were like that for years . so up until i was 9 i refused to eat gushers because i was afraid that if i did my head would turn into a gigantic piece of fruit and i wouldn't be able to turn it back

I used to believe that my sister unscrewed her head to get her necklace off!

I use to believe that being brainwashed meant that someone actually took out your brain, washed it with a sponge and soap and water, then put it back in and sewed you up.

I used to believe that if I turned around my left hand was now my right hand. I couldn't grasp that my left was always my left and my right was always my right.

I used to believe that if you put cow poo on your face, it would get rid of my freckles.

My girlfriend used to think her "feelings" were in her ankle, or somewhere around there. So whenever someone hurt her feelings she'd rub her ankles.

WHen I was a kid, I used to talk to my hands, making them talk to me. I had this whole society of people, I talked more to this guy that was very popular, everyone liked him and he had all the girls....

I used to think that the butt was like two big water bags, especially my mother's. It seemed to move like my water balloons, like all over the place.
