When I was younger, I had a geography problem. I believed that Europe was just above Canada. Except Italy, of course. In my mind that was sticking off the side of Russia.

geographically challenged

i used to think the united states were all that the world consisted of. i never understood there was any other country.

i thought that at the end of every country you could sit at the edge and dangle your feet off the edge into the water

When I was about 4 or so, I believed that when the space shuttle took off, it would go very high in the sky like you see on tv, but then just go towards a big house like a plane, and this house was that big Kennedy Space Center building (the rectangular one) i believed the "earth" was some kind of magical deity inside this building and the only way to go through the walls was by space shuttle. i never realized we lived there.

I used to think a drain pipe in my backyard led to another world.

I used to believe that Washington D.C. was in Washington and that the the United States was the entire world and there were no other countries.

In preschool my 2 BFFs and i would dig in the sand box because we thought there was a magical world where there was no adults and every single cartoon people like Mickey Mouse and Minnie would be there and you could wish for anything you wanted and no one would notice you were gone

I used to believe that everyone in Russia (back when it was The USSR) had to write a letter to the president for permission to do anything. This also included writing a letter to the president asking for permission to do something, so I thought the president would come to the house of anyone who wrote him a letter and arrest them for writing a letter without permission.
I don't know how I thought anyone got anything done, I didn't think that far.

I used to believe that you could dig to the other side of the world on the beach. So whenever we went there, I would just dig.

I used to believe that if you poked a city on a map you would destroy that city, so at school I would poke Houston to see if I could see a giant finger in the sky.

Catracho

This is not my belief. But my Ex-girlfriends mom thought that if we logged onto Google Earth, and she went outside, me and my girlfriend would see her. waving as we zoomed in. Lol.

When i was young (in fact up until i was about 22 when i actually had the guts to try it out) my mum used to say tht if you didn't step off escalators in time it would suck you under the moving stars forever. Even now when i look at escalators i intentially stand on unitl i hit the edge - just because i can!

When i was little i came up with weird things to explain weird things. Have you ever seen clouds on the skyline, like that "line" in between the sky and the ground, I used to think that they were mountains, and they would dissapear (when i couldnt see clouds there) and i constantly begged my parents to go mountain climbing on them, and i thought it was soo lucks we lived near disapearing mountains.
