Re: what are some of the craziest
Most of them wouldn't be appropriate to post.  But, I would guess that most people have heard that one about "If you ......... , you'll go blind".

Or "you'll grow hair on the palm of your hands"
1. Using your eyes too much can wear them out
2. If you cross your eyes on purpose, they will get stuck

Re: what are some of the craziest
Lol probably the stupidest one I've ever heard was when we spent the night at BF's dad's house one time and we got to talking about charlie horses (I was pregnant, and got them pretty often in my legs for some reason). And his wife said she heard that if you put a bar of soap under the sheets in the bed with you at night you wouldn't get them anymore. LOL!!! So we laughed, right. haha. Then we went to bed that night and I swear to god there was a bar of soap under the sheets on my side of the bed. o__o That lady is such a nutcase.
