kay, found it but it's not a link I want to post:
Neighbors hear a women screaming next door, call cops. The cops arrive and find a guy dressed up like Batman on top of a woman. Apparently "Batman" actually liked to role play sex with the wife, so he tied her up and jumped from the furniture on the bed to save her. He hit his head and knocked himself out. After a while the hubby didn't move too much, so she started screaming because she thought her savior was dead...
The one about eating 8 spiders a year in your sleep. Lmfao, I mean come on...
That's actually true I think. And it's the heat, not radiation.Havok wrote:
If you have sex while holding a laptop, the radiation from the laptop will kill the sperm cells so there's no need for a condom.
I shit you not, some dumb brunette told me that and I laughed at her face. I wonder if that had anything to do with the fact she had had 2 abortions already and she's only 17...
EDIT: Whoops, I guess I should have read it all. It definitely doesn't kill enough to not need a condom, but I do believe it kills a few anyway.

My own. No shit. A passage from my book ended up on Snopes.com as an urban legend.

I thought it was true when I wrote it. Anyway, that's the town in which I live, my high school, and I wrote that in my book Forged of a Hotter Fire.

The one that states that a plane wouldnt take off while standing on a giant treadmill.
I think a few of these have been done on Mythbusters.
Plenty of urban legends there.

I first heard this about 20 years ago, Ive heard version of it similar from many different UK cities.
Based in France:
A couple are out driving one night when the car breaks down. They seem to be in the middle of no where and the Man decides that he will go for help and his wife/gf/fiance should wait in the car with the doors locked and windows up. Its late at night and off the man sets in the forest on his own.
After 10 mins the girl hears a loud thumping on the car roof, "Thump, Thump,Thump..." she wants to get out and investigate but is riddled with fear and her fella's words "DO NOT GET OUT THE CAR" still in her head.
She sits in darkness for a further 30 mins, all silent, all dark. Soon the silence is broken by Blue Lights and sirens, "Great she thinks, he made it" the bf must of gone and gotten help after all.
The Police cars pull up along side hers but soon her calm turns to fear, the police exit the vehicles with guns drawn all pointing at her. They are yelling at her to get out the car.
"Get out, Get out, walk towards us, DO NOT TURN AROUND".
She gets out but curiosity gets the better of her and she turns around. What she saw next apparently turned her hair from Brunette to Blonde (lol, yeah as if). What she saw was her fella's head in bedded in an axe sat on top of the freshly dented car roof.
Last time I heard a different version of this was when one of my kids came home and told me, they were just as disappointed as me when I interupted then half way through the story and finished it off for them as others have done to me in the past.

That was the very first "horror" story I was told. I was about 7, and couldnt get to sleep that evening.1927 wrote:

pot is bad
If it wasn't for the fact Ive heard so many diffeent versions from all over the UK I wouldn't of thought it qualifies as an "Urban Myth".ShadowsStrike wrote:

Probably my 1st horror story too
Alligators in sewers.
Sorry bro, but mythbusters already busted that oneImagorilla wrote:
So, out of curiousity and brain numbness, I want to know your fave urban myth.
Mine goes like this.
So theres this bride whos getting married in a few weeks. She is a little on the pale side so she decides to darken it down a little bit. She goes to a tanning place and asks for the longest time available which is 30 min. But now she wants more b/c she isn't dark enough. But the place won't let her do any more b/c it could be dangerous. So she goes to 5 or 6 more places and does the same 30. She does this up until her wedding. On the wedding day, she notices her breath smells really bad so she chews gum, brushes her teeth, whatever. But the strong stench is still there. She ignores it b/c its time. At the alter she becomes light headed and evenutally passes out. She later dies and her autopsy reveals that her insides have been cooked, literally. All her time in the tanning booths have cooked her from the inside out.
Your turn!

I dont really know if its a urban myth, but my friend has the unlock button on his car, so we saw how far away you could be with it still opening, then if you hold it against your throat and open your mouth you can stand back like 20 feet and it still works
apparently if you have a cell phone, if someone is talking to you on it and they click the button on the remote unlock thing into the phone and you hold yours up to the door, it opens. I guess it is based on a certain sonic frequency that can be amplified by your mouth or transfered through the phone.CosmoKramer wrote:

Unfortunately, my car's not that cool to have the door remote .... well, it is from 1993. I'm fine without it, but I can't try this outCosmoKramer wrote:

However, wouldn't the sonic frequency or whatever have to be the right one for that car? So, in order to test the unlock-the-car-through-the-phone theory, wouldn't you have to give your door remote to your friend, have them drive away in their car, and then call you, and you hold your cell phone up to your car?
