When I was younger and heard infomercials saying "call the number on your screen," I thought they meant the phone number on my window screen and I would always get up and look on the window screen, looking for a changing number.

This is sad, when i was about 10, I had all these Harry Potter posters in my room and i used to think that they could see me when i was getting changed, so i refused to get changed in my room.
my friend came over one day and we were getting changed and she kept saying that the characters on the posters could see me getting changed, eventually i ended up halfway down the hallway ages from my room and i still thought that the posters could see me. I took them down after that

When I was young I had a huge fear of the Kaa snake from the jungle book cartoon. I would always hide in the other room when he came on the tv. He would give me constant nightmares too.

When I was little there was a hole in the top of my TV and I thought that if I got into it, I would be come part of whatever I was watching so I put my arm in and thought it was part of the Lion King and was really excited. When I realized it didnt work I yelled "BLUE SKIDOO! YOU CAN TOO!" and ran at the TV. After slamming my face into the TV I didn't try again.

After watching Titanic my small sister kept crying because she thought that the director killed those people in the ship just for the sake of making the movie..!!

hall of fame
I used to believe that the people in the TV were real people and if you unplugged your TV they would die.
I used to believe that there was someone "working" inside of the TV set that sat there and changed the channels when I turned the knob. I would spin the knob around really fast trying to confuse them, but they always got it right. Mom told me that they could see me, too, so I should get dressed before I sat down in front of the TV so that I wouldn't be seen in my PJ's.
I used to believe once someone had been filmed for a tv programme or movie, their image could be manipulated to 'perform' in more tv programmes and films even after they were dead, simply because they had been caught on film once. I had mixed up something my grandmother had told me about television (I was only 8)
I used to believe that if you went to another town or state, the radio and TV programs would be different. The first time I traveled out-of-state, I was shocked that the radio still played the same songs that it played at home.

When I was about 6 my dad was a presenter on T.V. Whenever his program was on I used to jump and wave and start talking to him! I still do even though I know it's not real!=^-^=
i used to believe that cartoons where real, i thought that they were acting, but they were still real!
I used to think the television newscasters could see and hear me. I thought they were going to tell my teachers everything I did. I never got dressed in front of them. Ever.
i used to believe when i was a little girl that there were little people in the television and radio and i once tried to open up the tv to check. i got caught and my mum totally freaked!!
I used to believe…
one time my dad told me that he has a secret video camera everywhere. So then when i did something wrong i would apologize to the air. I also thought that it was on televison so i did some wierd stuff to make things interesting.
I use to always believe that whenever you saw two people in a movie or on TV kissing, in a sex scene, etc., they had to be related. It would have been wrong if they weren't since then they would have been strangers.
