I used to believe that bathwater came directly from the ocean, and lived in constant fear that a squid would come out of the sink.

Same here, but with sharks D:

I once saw this indian movie with my aunt where a couple are walking down the beach and the ground opens up to reveal a huge octopus-lizard-shark-thing that ate the girl. No one could convince me to go to a beach after that. o:

When I was little and shared a bed with my older sister, she convinced me that there were coyotes under my bed that would eat me if I got up in the middle of the night-- in an attempt to make me stop crawling over her so much, since I slept closest the wall.

What really happened was that I started taking a running leap at the bed from quite a ways away, and usually landing squarely on top of her. It doesn't pay to be mean to me. xD

That Stephan Hawking belonged to the same era of Issac Newton's.

Did I say Newton? I meant, Einstein. Oh, pish! >_<

1] I used to believe that when monsoon season came, the sea would rain down on us and we'd have to turn our bed into a raft; I actually tried convincing my mum to get us a bed that could float--I figured the mattress would get soggy.

2] I also believed that these weird creeper-thingies with vines for hands lived under my bed, and they'd grab my feet if I dangled them off the edge. So I'd usually throw a pillow on the ground, scream, jump off the bed and run out of the door.

3] And ... uhm ... I thought my dad was the tooth-fairy when he left a pack of crayons under my pillow. I was awake and I demanded to know where he hid his wings. XD

I used to believe that if you swallowed bubblegum, they'd kill you. In fact, it was so big that I made a point to never swallow gum.

I just now remembered this seeing as I'm eating pizza right now...

I was such a picky eater when I was little and my parents used to try everything to get me to eat. So one time my dad ordered pizza, flipped a slice upside down, and told me it was azzip, which was "completely different" than pizza. I totally bought it and would order azzip all the time. Took me a while to realize that azzip is just pizza backwards. I think I was around 6 years old or so.
