Honestly. The kid versions of life are way more fun than the adult realized versions.
Yes, we need more of these videos!
the grape/rake one was the same with me but it was because for some reason when i was in like 1st grade my bus driver told me about his sister being graped and i told my mom thinking that someone held her down and literally took a rake over her body. pointed out the rake outside and everything
he wasn’t a bus driver for us very long
Why? Why would they fire him?
@@GrahamLavelle-hn3szidk if they fired him or moved him but he was discussing his sister being SA’d with kids ages 5-11
i think i was 6
Lmao the way the narrator said "JESUS DIED-" in the end got me.
The Civil War as the Silver War. Fighting over silver? LOL
Possibly with the right accent, the silver ware
"-that when you were fired from your job, the company killed you."
Employees from the Lethal Company: ☹️
4:14 when I was younger I wondered why it was spelled "Disnep"
I was the same, except that I thought it was "isnep", as I didn't realize that weird swirly thing at the beginning of the word was supposed to be a "D", or any other letter.
When I was really young, I thought the ENTIRE world was the USA because at the time I only ever saw maps of the USA and haven't seen globes or world maps yet. I thought other continents like Europe were only in fairy tales and such, but I thought China did exist, you just had to dig down deep enough. I took the phrase "digging to China" literally.
Oh, yeah, I also thought you got pregnant by kissing on the mouth, what else would 6-year-old me think was the reason my parents and couples in movies would do that so often? lol
I have one technically. For the longest time, I thought it was "Slyvester *Calzone* " and not "Stallone" . The cartoon Fairy Oddparents was to blame. lol
When I was really little I believed that babies could just kinda be... willed into existence if you wanted one bad enough. The reason why a man and a woman were required for one to be produced perplexed me.
I thought the same too. Not helped by the fact that me and my 2nd sister wanted another sister and prayed she would be born(which she obviously did) and to add more to the confusion, I didn't even notice my mom was pregnant with her (my two sisters didn't notice too)
my granfather and uncle use to run a house moving business where they did move the whole building so the person who said that about a book wasn't far off.
My mom was 7 years old when President Kennedy passed away in 1963. Her family usually lived in Thailand but were living in the US in late 1963 and early 1964, so they didn't own a TV and my mom didn't really pay attention at that age if her parents listened to the news on the radio. As a result, she didn't hear about Kennedy's passing until she got to school the Monday after it happened. On her way to school that day (she walked to and from her school), she was late because a giant tree had fallen and blocked the street she usually walked along to get to school. Somehow, in her seven-year-old mind, she put the tree and President Kennedy's demise together and thought that he had passed because the tree fell on him! It was only months later that she mentioned to her mom that she "saw the tree that fell on President Kennedy", and her mom explained to her what had REALLY happened!
Yeah when I was a child tv messed me up some,until Archie bunker flushed his toilet. Lol. I really thought that ppl on tv never had to poop nor did they fart. Lol.
I remember watching The Brady Bunch where we see the kids' bathroom, but we never see a toilet! I always thought that the toilet was only seen by the family but invisible to the audience! 😂
The sleeping with someone and taking it literally was me as well 😂😂😂
I literally thought it was like that until college
And same for the actors dying in films and die in real life
This wasn't until high school when I took theatre to realize how dumb I truly am 😂😂😂😂
When I was younger I was dumb enough to say words incorrectly 😂😂😂
Story 3 is hilarious. I’m dead😂😂😂😂
I was trying to say clock in a British accent as a child
And in my head that translated to an invisible L sound
So I was saying clock without the L
My grandma put an end to that quickly
"Thats such a big (clock without the L)"
"WHAT"
Thats how it went, you can't convince me otherwise
I totally misunderstood women, and after 53 years I still don't get them. My head would explode if I felt that many (often conflicting) feelings at once.
I'm on board with that one. We will never know.
Its ok, i dont understand myself either.
To your credit it’s clear you are being truthful about not understanding women. Stating your assumption that our feelings are “often conflicting” is a dead giveaway. In case you’re interested we spend no more or less time with conflicting feelings than any other kind of human👍
@@mgen278 I don't know I don't feel more than one or two things at a time so maybe it's just me. But I've had a couple of female friends telling me that they absolutely adore their boyfriend while they hate his guts and other things like that that, it doesn't make any sense to me. It could also be the words they're using to describe their feelings but a lot of times they seem to conflict to me but I'm pretty easy going and don't get frustrated easily so I tend to just feel One or two things at a time and they usually agree with one another.
When I was a small kid (about 3 or so) I somehow got it into my head that if you took medicine without really being sick, the medicine would give you the same sickness you were pretending to have in order to get the medicine. I'm not sure where that came from. At the same age, I was so into clocks that I thought of numbers in base-12 and didn't like or understand base-10 numbering, so I invented my own base-12 number system that went up to 144. Yeah, I was a weird kid...
Another weird thing I believed as a kid was that people smoked because they wanted to get cancer. I didn't know what cancer was, but I knew that people got it from smoking and figured that the cancer, whatever it was, must be the end goal.
When i was really young i used to think that Disney world was near to where I live.
IN THE UK.
Boomer here. I believed so many stupid things. I thought that my parents had a wedding ceremony. After the wedding, the priest gave my parents 4 kids and sent them on their way.
I thought for a longer amount of time than I am willing to admit that briskets were just a type of biscuit kinda like how in addition to biscuits, there are also triscuits.
I was not expecting a hunk of meat to be what a brisket is.
Hi ^^
Hi
i used to think the word "jump" was pronounced: "Jrump." I'm not fucking kidding and I had an entire argument with my sister abt it.
I lived in a very diverse occupied town, made up many cultures, religions, races, and countries of origin.
I could not understand as we learned to speak a common language, we were unable to understand another’s innermost being. Everybody was against another for their original country of origin, original language, their race, their religion, their viewpoint, and so forth.
I saw my school mates and neighbors express this hate and pettiness.
As I grew, even in my family showed to be unloving, cruel. To people outside, then within the family or community.
This is life’s mystery.
Jackalopes ARE sorta real- its a fungal infection that leaves the rabbit with a kind of hornlike protrusions. People saw the fungal infected rabbits, and concluded the horns were natural like deer and moose antlers.
When I was about 6, I pronounced the word olive as lo-ive, the ive making the same sound as in the original word, because I thought the word couldn't possibly start with an O, because an O looks like an agape mouth and that's way too open to be standing at the beginning of the word with nothing to protect it from something flying in.
I'm neurodivergent
When I was 6 or 7 my best friends name was Sean (pronounced Shawn) who was a year younger than me. On my birthday, I was about to open his present when I saw 'Sean' on the sticker I started asking who Sean (Seen) was and my friends mom said "Oh no that is (Shawn) that's just how him names is spelled." I looked at her like she was lying to me and replied, "No, I just learned how to sound words out and this says" I pointed to each letter " 'Sh' 'E' 'N'." At this point my dad grabbed me to talk to me off to the side while my friend was crying and yelling at his mom that she lied to him about his name and now he was going to have to learn how to write a whole new name!
1st grade me telling friends I knew where the Simpsons lived.
My house was close to the Fox TV affiliate.
I was convinced that jackalopes were real, because I was gullible enough to believe scooby doo when shaggy saw a jackalope and was surprised they were real. So for some reason I took it as fact. I think it was from scooby doo and the cyber chase?
When my daughter was young she visited me at work with her dad and saw the police taking a shoplifter away, she then asked me if bigger kids where taken away by the police when they stole something and I told her “no, the security guard usually just kicks them out of the shop and bans them” for a few years she thought that the security guard would hold the kids one at a time and physically kick them up the arse until they where out the store! 😂 I also got a shock from the light switch one day and when I was telling the family she asked me “if I had seen my bones” (Like in cartoons).
i still to this day say rock paper shoe, insted of rock paper shoot. i only learned reccently that i have been doing to wrong, and shoot just sounds wrong to me cus i have been doing shoe all my life
i thought a cat could change genders when it got fixed, so at the age of like 7 i was going to give my male cat bubba, a new name after being fixed he was going to be pricailla. Them my grandfathers friend who was the vet told me very nicely that the cay would still be a boy he just could not make kittens.
I think I was about 7-8 years old when I learned that some people have naturally darker skin tones than others, I just thought that people from more southern areas just were more suntanned. Made for a really awkward moment when I asked a black classmate where he had vacationed to get such a dark and long lasting tan.
My husband and I were talking as we were riding and listening to the radio and found out that as children we both thought that the music and songs were actually being performed live at the radio station.
Jesus died for your sins because the Bible says that without the shedding of blood, there cannot be forgiveness and He was the perfect sacrifice.
For me
When i was young i thought it was i came in like a rainbow not i came in like a Wrecking ball 😅
i proceeded to refer to Cadbury's as Cabree's until 14. Oops
I also thought that the corn on corn on the cob were yellow peas
When I was young, I thought babies were made by putting your bums together, like dogs do
Both of my parents were in the army and deployed at the same time and for some reason i thought that if any one of them was to get killed overseas the people that killed them would come to where we were and finish us off also. I broke down crying many many times 😂😂
The civil war thing = they thought it meant it was a civilized war, involving table manners etc.
with the story 11, I think the op mistook the word slavery for cutlery or silverware
That tongues have different areas for tasting different flavors
Oh the civil war one was funny. Silverware sounds similar to civil war
I also thought that movies cast the same person for young/old scenes so thought some movies took decades to film
Oml the black and white one was something i went through also. I only realized that it wasnt the whole world when me and my brother played cod 😭
Actually, it's, "Jose, can you see by the Don's early lite?"
love the character you show in this video narrator ur laughs are very contagious
Civil War kid probably misheard it as silverware lmao
i thought that movies that involved a character in multiple points in life that they started the movies when actors were kids and just took YEARS to film
took way too long for me to realize there were just child actors
I thought heart attack was contagious
Wait! It's not Thunder Chief?
I think one of the people were confusing civil war with silverware
As a kid when I heard “only in theaters” I took it literally
as a kid i though graveyards were called gravey-yards
I also thought Pizza Hut was Pizza Hot when I was a kid.
No the Martha Stewart one!! I thought that too 😂😂😂😅
I learned a bit late that I had Asperger's Syndrome (even though I was diagnosed at the age of 4), so when I first started being more receptive toward that word, I thought it was pronounced Asburgers. I had to actually see the word to realize how it's actually pronounced.
My brother in law has it and his friend came up to him when they were in school after learning about a disorder with a "funny name" (her words) and he's like "yeah I have it" she went pale. He just laughed it off.
civil war = silverware, maybe?
Back when I was 6 or 7 I thought America lost the revolution against Britain because of scores on a soccer game so I was absolutely angry and had plans to go back in time and change the tides in the American revolution but then my dad told me we won the revolutionary war
One time when I was 5 on my IPad after I watched a spider man movie and then I searched the cast and thought Tom hollands real name was Peter Parker
that last commentary😭
I rarely comment . But I always thought that Purple Rain lyrics said " she never sat in side " was really " she was never satisfied " took me most my life to figure this out . I feel dumb
Songs are easy to misunderstand
DIRTY DEEDS AND THE DUNDER SHEEP
Civil war - silverware
My mother told me that mushrooms were poisonous, she likes to eat mushrooms, so I never ate it. I was nineteen when I found out she lied about it. 😅😅
I mean, it's not really a lie, considering a lot of wild ones are poisonous.
I thought that my reality was the same for everybody. But then I watched the movie "The Matrix". It planted a seed in me. I began to understand people saw reality in different ways. Mental health, backgrounds and all of that who made people who they is. Now I am a better listener and I am more understanding to others!
As a child, i thought that the television block "1 Saturday morning" only happened literally once.
I also thought "Las Vegas" was "Lost vegas" and that "Los Angeles" was "Lost Angeles".
I'm not American but I'm pretty sure it's Los Angeles
@@AnyoneMining my bad
My childhood misunderstanding was I thought flamingos were called falamingos, and I remember insisting they were called that and getting super upset when I was told what they were actually called lol
When I was 5, I kept saying froggy instead of foggy
I know of a meteorologist who always said "mugly" instead of "muggy"!😂
My dad used to say that and I still do
@melissacooper8724 I didn't know muggy was a word until middle school, and even then, I thought my dad was messing with me.
2:12 that... was sad
The jackalope is plausible, because there are mutation that causes horns and antlers to grow out of animals that wouldn't normally have them.
papillomavirus is not usually fatal
Bone tumors?
@@kurotsuki7427 think so I will find out.
@@kurotsuki7427 papillomavirus is what it is called it is warts
Could you imagine a pet jackalope tho
I thought that unmarried women were burned when they died as a punishment because my mother’s Aunt was cremated and I never knew her to have a husband. She did, he passed before I was born.
Got the words pedestrian and Presbyterian mixed up. I thought the “watch for pedestrians “ signs meant that drivers had to watch out for Presbyterians
I literally thought a baby came out of the butt
Only in the USA
6:52 circumcision aka mutilation
i used to think that dont drive when your high meant dont drive if your seat is high 🤣
I once thought that don't drink and drive meant not to drive while drinking any beverages! 😂
@@melissacooper8724 omg same
