when I was little, my mom told that if you put your head upside-down then your blood would rush to your brain and I thought that the blood would start to drip out of my head if I did so.

what wild theorys/thoughts did you have?

        Aliens. Loved 'em.

        Oh I tried planting Skittles when I was really young and thought that like in some of the commericals a rainbow or somthing would magically sprout and I would be able to eat them or somthing. Yeah I was cool...

            "If you swallow gum, it will stay in your stomach forever."

            I swallow gum all the time, and it digests in the stomach. I don't see what the big deal is with it.

            "Drinking Mountain Dew will lower your sperm count."

            That's what I used to be told all the time in high school, but I drank that stuff everyday just to show up those guys. Yes, Yellow #5, the chemical does do that, but you'd have to drink gallons and gallons of that stuff.

                I thought that I could use brainwaves to unscramble HBO and the Disney Channel.

                  I used to think they're were actually tiny little people in the TV, that Carbonation in Soda was acually bugs swimming around in my can, and that Tuskens (Sand People) were going to get me if I didn't go to bed on time.

                    Grandma told me that if I drank from the water bubbler, and had my mouth right on the metal part, I'd get "Trenchmouth" aka "Lockjaw"...aka "TETANUS".

                    Also was led to beleive that if I swallowed my gum it'd stick there...well I've been swallowing gum off and on since 1982-83 (when I had all the nessacary teeth to chew the gum) and let me tell you....I'm just gonna go downstairs and get an x-ray... (I'm at work...you know...clinic...)

                      I thought if I could surround a lightbulb with solar panels that fed back into the lightbulb, it will keep going.

                        I thought that on old black and white TV shows everything was black and white in real life too.

                          I remember that I was 5 years old back in 1987, I went to the store (Kroger) with my parents then I remember my left hand and stole some BRACH'S candies and put it in my coat pocket and hid it then we went to my mom's car - 1984 blue Buick car that I started to eat a few till we got home then hid it again till I ran to my room and I put some candies out from my coat pocket and hid it under the pillow but later, my parents found out that I stole them but they punished me a little that why they understand why I was too young to steal. I never forget my first MISTAKE!

                            many of the wierd theroys that I had were already said but when I was a kid I was sort of like a cat... I thought that if I would hide under my bed that no one would see me because I wasnt able to see their eyes...

                            I also thought I would be able to build a robot with electrical wire, junction boxes, a screwdriver and a hammer... that didnt really work out well :(

                              I thought I could crawl walls if I put tape on my hands and feet

                                  If you loss a tooth, before you went to bed at night, put the tooth under your pillow. In the morning the Tooth Fairy would leave you money in place of the loss tooth.

                                    I used to have a theory that all Lions were boys and all Tiger were girls. Because Tigers wear makeup. Yeah.

                                      I thought that stars were very small and close together. I used to wonder why space shuttles weren't crashing into them, or at least didn't seem to have to dodge them.
