When i was about 3 or 4 i knew nothing about death except what i saw on tv. And most deaths on tv meant blood and gore. So my great grandma died and my dad was a pallbearer and when i saw my dad come out carrying the casket i started screaming and crying, because i thought he was gonna get covered in blood. and he had to get someone else to take his place and come sit with me because i didnt want my daddy to get blood on him.

When I was a kid and the other children on the playground would point their fingers at each other and say "Put your hands up or I'll shoot!", I never understood that this was to stop people from doing anything suspicious with their hands. I thought it was physically impossible for someone to die from a gun if they didn't have their hands up. So when people threatened to shoot only if they DIDN'T put their hands up, I thought this was a cunning trick to make them put their arms up so they COULD shoot them. You'd think eventually people would catch on and just keep their hands down, they can't die then!

When I was young (okay I still believe it when I'm a little tired) I believed that you could die without realizing it. When a car zoomed by quickly I would wonder if I had been run over and had not yet realized I was dead.
I remember once when I was about 6 I saw a program on TV about reincarnation, and I became really fascinated about it. I decided that I would write a list of all my friends and families' names & addresses then if I died and was reincarnated I could go back to see them and wouldn't be lonely.
It took me a few months to work out that even if I wrote them down, there was no way that once I was dead I could keep the paper with me...this freaked me out a bit coz then I got to wondering where we all go when we die and how we'd remember anything.

When I was five, our very old landlord, Mr. Small, died. After that I was very scared to go take a bath because for some reason I was convinced that his ghost would come out of the faucet and get me.

i used to beleive that when you died your soul went up to heaven and god asked you if you wanted to go back down or stay in heaven and if you wanted to go back down god asked what creature would you like to live again as. you would be born again as that creature (or human if you wanted) and your memory would be blank, you wouldnt remember that you were once something else.(even though you'd still have the same soul) i somewhat still beleive this...
I use to think if you die you wood just disapeer.
I use to think that wenever you die, for watever resin, holes wood be made in yor face and body and blud wood cum out uv ther.
I use to beleve that if a block hevyer then 16 tuns fall on yor hed that it wood eat you insted uv you just die normaly.

One morning when I was about 5, I must have waken from a strange dream, because when i woke I belived that if I stopped blinking I would somehow fall over and die. So I began blinking rapidly over and over, and i remember being really worried. My parents started laughing when they found out why and immediatly made me stop.

i've always thought if someone died the would got to heaven or the other place. But if God couldn't decide you would stay on earth and that's why some people would have strokes and not die.

When my Mom left my mischeivous brother to babysit me, he would pretend to die and I'd be left alone for monsters to get. Once he died, so I died right next to him believing the monsters would forget about us.

I was convinced that we each had a certain amount of air to breathe. This was contained in an invisible balloon. When it ran out you died...I would lie in bed and hold my breath for as long as I could. I am now 62 and my balloon is sagging badly
