    ^ Title says it all.

    I once tried to see how many seconds I had left to live in 4th or 5th grade, so I assumed I would die at 70, and after my (unchecked) calculations, it said I would only live for 70,000 more seconds, which didn't make sense, but I believed it and then I valued every second of my time so much.

    In 6th grade I realized that I still have like 140,000 more seconds, which I don't even know if that's right.

    Not even close.

    70 - 13 (your age) = 57 years left

    57 years * 365.25 days * 24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds = 1,798,783,200 seconds left

    It does for me at least.
    Or maybe it's just me believing it so I get hyper, either way.

    I thought the stuff that goes down the sink gets checked.

    So one time I accidentally dropped a marble down the drain
    And I flicked through like 10 news channels to make sure no one reported it. I was freaking out. :(

    When my brother and I where younger, our mom told us if we go in my Uncle's bedroom, the "white owl" would catch us and possibly kill us. She did this to prevent us from causing havoc, I stop believing this when I was like 9 because we went in the room to find there was no owl waiting to kill us!

    .... I was destined to reply to this thread! :D

    When I was really young, I used to think timezones were impossible. "Oh, it's 9:37 here! It's 9:37 in Japan!"

    The first time I ever saw a movie with actors in it was when I was like 4 or 5. I just stared at the movie for the entire time, and when I went to sleep, I asked my mom, "How did they draw that?"

    Finally, I used to think medicine healed you instantly. So, whenever I took medicine when I was sick, I was always surprise when my throat still felt like someone had stabbed it.

    :/

    when I was a kid, I thought when you rub a magic lamp, a genie would appear for real.
    I tried doing that with my grandma's "Magic lamp" and the genie wouldn't appear. My grandma laughed so hard at me when I ask about why the genie wouldn't come out.

    I thought babies were pooped out.

    Also when you broke off dandelions I thought the white stuff was milk.
    It was not.
    I tricked my brother into trying the white stuff not once, not twice, but definitely more than 3 times.

    Oh yeah because I didn't get much access to the internet I used to think Youtube and Facebook was the internet.

    I also once was very sceptical of shooting stars, until one day at 4am I saw one.

    not to mention Santa and the fact I thought split parents were normal.
    ah, childhood.

    I used to think
    <-- This car has a same platform with Honda S2000(because it has a open rooftop)
    But they weren't same.
    S2000 is a roadster type but
    <-- This is "Kei-Automobile", a platform only exists in Japan.(Less power than Supermini/City Car)

    In my town there was a crane when I was in Primary school.
    The crane could hold 1000kg and I couldn't really read it so it looked like 1000m to me.
    I thought around 15m were 1km x.x
