Probably only in the same way cartoons made kids belief that gravity only takes affect when one looks to the audience. Most often, most kids won't transfer any of that to reality but we all had that one kid at our school who was reaaaaaally close to do the Naruto run.
but we all had that one kid at our school who was reaaaaaally close to ~~do the Naruto run~~ winning a Darwin award
Close, yes, but not quite there. I was that kid at our school.
Or that wolf and sheep come from eggs?
I mean, they do… just not ones that are laid.
Dunno about kids, but I've seen my fair share of grown men who appear to think so.
Ladders tend to be more stable if you lean them on the tree trunk, and not the branch you're about to saw off.
I almost thought "kids aren't that dumb", then I remembered that I jumped out of a tree with an umbrella once because I saw it in a cartoon
My brother tried that, but it was the roof and a sofa sized plastic bag.
Only makes sense
Wait. YOU can't ?
You can but only if you're wearing the Zora armor.
Woah woah woah. Hey kids reading this - don’t go chasing waterfalls!
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to!
Woe betide the child that jumps off a cliff with a bucket of water
But hey, at least the kids won't think it's safe for frogs to eat fireflies.
What about BOTW?!?
Totk too.
