Answer 2

My favorite Urban Legend is the Jersey Devil one. It scares me, seriously. I get so scared that I want to cry. They really need to make a movie about it. Anyway its about this flying devil that haunts New Jersey. I don't want to talk about it, its too scary, just read about it. Or google it

Okay now you have me seriously freaked out. Now I'm thinking of Bloody Mary which is my other favorite urban legend. That's when you go in the mirror and say bloody mary 13 times and she appears in the mirror rocking her dead baby. She is supposed to attack you or something. Now I am terrified, thanks alot.

Answer 3

I don't remember what the actual titile of this one is, but my favorite is "The Devil's Dance Floor"

A girl goes to a dance on halloween, and just after midnight a tall man with black hair and dark eyes asks here to dance. They quickly become the focal point of the room, as the song comes to a close the crowd notices the man's cloven feet. The devil pulls the girl close to him and they spin over toward a large window and throws himself through the window taking the girl with him. several stories below they find the girl dead and surrounded by broken glass

Answer 4

too many to list. i like the scuba diver scooped up in the firefighting water bucket, then dropped into a forest fire.
all ones where old relegious people think the government and ACLU are persicuting them, forcing cancellation of touched by an angle, making Dr Pepper remove the pledge of allegiance form promotions, etc
mikey's stomach exploding from eating pop rocks and drinking soda.

Answer 5

That the childrens cartoon Captain Pugwash was very rude and had characters called Seaman Staines, Master Bates etc

It didn't

but I have the ringtone on my mobile and someone will always make a comment about it. (The myth came from a comedian in the 1970's who did a routine about it).

Answer 6

Answer 7

Scream Baby Hollow. You drive your car late at night over a bridge where a young girl drowned. You stop your car on the bridge, your car will move across the bridge and you will see small wet handprints on the back of your car. Never experienced it myself. Just like the concept.

Answer 8

Many more than there is space for here. But here atr a couple:
A young woman is next in line at Target. When the man (apparently of mid-Eastern descent) in front of her doesn't have enough money she offers him a dollar to make up the difference. He is extremely grateful and wants to make it up to her. She declines and he leaves. The woman pays for her merchandise and then leaves the store. Upon exiting she is confronted by the man. He continues to thank her saying that what she did is one of the nicest things anyone has ever done and since she did something nice for him, he wants to do something nice for her. He tells her not to drink any Coke or Pepsi products after 8/3 and quickly leaves.

This one sounds so scientific:

As a seventh grade student, Claire Nelson learned that di(ethylhexyl)adepate (DEHA), considered a carcinogen, is found in plastic wrap. She also learned that the FDA had never studied the effect of microwave cooking on plastic-wrapped food. Claire began to wonder: "Can cancer-causing particles seep into food covered with household plastic wrap while it is being micro waved?"

Three years later, with encouragement from her high school science teacher, Claire set out to test what the FDA had not. Although she had an idea for studying the effect of microwave radiation on plastic-wrapped food, she did not have the equipment. Eventually, Jon Wilkes at the National Center for Toxicological Research in Jefferson, Arkansas, agreed to help her.

The research center, which is affiliated with the FDA, let her use facilities to perform her experiments, which involved microwaving plastic wrap in virgin olive oil. Claire tested four different plastic wraps and "found not just the carcinogens but also xenoestrogen was migrating intothe oil].. Xenoestrogens are linked to low sperm counts in men and to breast cancer in women.

Throughout her junior and senior years, Claire made a couple of trips each week to the research center, which was 25 miles from her home, to work on her experiment. An article in Options reported that "her analysis found that DEHA was migrating into the oil at between 200 parts and 500 parts per million. The FDA standard is 0.05 parts per billion." Her summarized results have been published in science journals. Claire Nelson received the American Chemical Society's top science prize for students during her junior year and fourth place at the International Science and Engineering Fair (Fort Worth,Texas) as a senior. "Carcinogens -- At 10,000,000 Times FDA Limits" Options May 2000. Published by People Against Cancer, 515-972-4444.

On Channel 2 (Huntsville, AL) this morning they had a Dr. Edward Fujimoto from Castle Hospital on the program. He is the manager of the Wellness Program at the hospital. He was talking about dioxins and how bad they are for us.

He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This applies to foods that contain fat. He said that the combination of fat, high heat and plastics releases dioxins into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Dioxins are carcinogens and highly toxic to the cells of our bodies. Instead, he recommends using glass, Corning Ware, or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results without the dioxins. So such things as TV dinners, instant ramin and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. Just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc. He said we might remember when some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.

Pass this on to your family and friends....

To add to this: Saran wrap placed over foods as they are nuked, with high heat, actually drips poisonous toxins into the food. Use paper towel instead.

Answer 10

My favourite urban legend involves me sneaking into your house in the middle of the night sedating you tying you to a chair and then filming myself giving you a lap dance when you come to. The dance will be to RUSH and it will be terrifying, oh its gonna happen, and you will probably piss yourself and cry.
