What's the weirdest thing you truly believed as a kid?

my sister made me believe that the mushrooms in the front yard were explosive. lol

 

did she use a well placed firecracker to confirm this belief?

 

I believed that I was the only real person and everyone else disappeared when I left the room.

Is that what you said?

lol

 

I believed that sharks could squeeze through the faucet into my bath water with me.
I believed that my grandmothers empty fish tank really did contain "xray fish" and if they liked me they would light up for me to see them.

 

My dad convinced me that his younger brother got flushed down the toilet as a kid.
That if you sprinkled salt on a squirrel, their tail would fall off.
That fairies would tie my hair in knots during the night if I had lied.

Oh gosh there are tons, my dad loved to screw with our heads, he thought it was hilarious.
