People killed in films or on TV die in real life.

When I was 3 or 4 my older sister told me that actors volunteered to be killed in a movie during a murder scene.

when i was about 6, i was convinced that when a movie was made where people get shot, they would ask people who wanted to kill themselves to do the job.

really!

I used to believe that when people died in movies, they really died in real life. I always felt sorry for the people who ended up dying in movies.

when i was a child, i used to believe actors really died in films so i said to my father "that soon there would not be films any more " because no one would want to become actors. My father answered "maybe one day, but not now".

I used to think when they showed someone dying on TV (falling from a building, fire, etc) that the filmmakers had to get prisoners who were going to die anyway so they could get their shot.

For the biggest part of my childhood I believed that when a character in a movie died, the actor was actually killed. I always wondered where they found all the people so willing to end their life for entertainment?!?

When i was little, i used to think that the bad guys really died in the movies. But in order not to kill a good person, they used people in prison to play the bad people.

My mum used to buy me sweets to sit quietly to watch the Saturday afternoon movie. I used to beleive that advertisements were put out offering people lots of money to be shot on film. I thought they were paid up front,spent the money ,then died.How weird was I!!!

One day my sister and I were watching a movie with my aunt where an entire singing group died. I think it was that same day or soon after where we saw the group perform live at a concert. I started freaking out because in my mind they had all died and I believed that their ghosts were performing. It took my aunt a while to get me to believe the whole actor/fake death explanation.

When I was I kid, I wondered how they managed to show so many people get kill in the movies. I had heard that some people committed suicide, putting an end to their lives privately. Quite sensibly, as an imaginative child, I used to believe that film makers would set out to the goomier parts of the city to set up a stand or roam with big signs recruiting suicidal individuals to participate in their upcoming movie, so that they may be killed before the camera during a scene and to the great enjoyment of future movie audiences.

When I was little I believed when an actor died in a movie, he died in real life.

When i was little i thought that when people in movies died they really did, so i thought they would just wait until they found out they had cancer or something before they would take a part where they would die and the movie company would pay their families lots of money to it, i was really confused when i saw the same guy die in two seperate chuck noris movies

when i was about 4 or 5, i believed people that died in a movie really died - just for the sake of the movie. *cough* yea. O_o

When I was a child, I used to believe that the actors really died in a series or film. I spent a long time thinking about that because I was feeling so sad. Then when I saw a movie where the same actors I was very impressed because I didn't believe that they were alive...That really scared me!

I used to believe that everybody who died on screen died in real life. I figured that for these roles they used people who were terminally ill anyway. It never ever occured to me that people could act death.

When i was about 5-6 I used to believe that people that were killed in movies and such actually got killed for real - but I didn't feel that sorry for them because I was convinced that it had to be really mean people already in for death row that got punished and that they deserved it.

I used to believe that when people died or were killed in the movies that they died in real life. And therefore I concluded that all actors who died in movies must have received a death sentence.

When I was younger, I used to believe when you got killed in a movie.. you really were killed. So the movie stars hired stunt poeple to die for them.
