Urban myths
We've all heard of them some scare us some make us laugh. Now it's time to share some of the scariest, funniest or even the craziest Urban Myths that you've heard. Please do not make up your own find some on the internet or in a book.

For a scarier Myth please put this before it
This myth may frighten you if you easily get scared I advise you to stop reading, if not enjoy the spine chilling story.

That warning is very important so please do not forget to add it.
Please note none of these are real

I'll start.
Good luck, Mr. Gorsky
In july of 1969, one-fifth of the world's population watched on television as Neil Armstrong became the first human to walk on the Moon. His famous utterance "That's one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind" was interuppted by static and there has been argument ever since about wether he said "man" or "a man"-without the "a" his famous statement is meaningless.
Everyone then became so absorbed in watching him walk on the surface of the Moon that few people thought about what he said next. Footage of the moonwalk reveals that as he took his second step he said: "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky." Mission control thought he was referring to a Soviet cosmonaut, but checks revealed thet there was no cosmonaut by that name.
For years, the famously reticent Armstrong refused to divulge who he was reffering to. But in July 1995, during a rare press conference in Florida, a reporter brought up the question again and Armstrong came clean. Saying that he hoped he wouldn't cause anyone embarraament now that his childhood neighnours Mr. and Mrs. Gorsky had passed on, Armstrong explained that one summer as a child he had been playing a baseball with his brother, who had hit the ball into the Gorsky's yard. When Neil went to collect the ball he had distinctly heard Mrs. Gorsky. through an open window, saying to her husband: "Lobster thermidor? You'll get a lobster thermidor the day the kid next door walks on the Moon."

It's your turn to share now!

I'll go with Polybius. If you don't know what it is, it was an arcade game back in the 80's when they were cool and stuff. The game was extremely successful and popular, however those who were playing the game witnessed strange hallucinations in the corner of their eyes and heard voices. Some of these players became insane, had insomnia, nightmares, or amnesia. Others commited suicide. Ann arcade owner once noticed two men in black suits walk up to the machine, gather information, and left without a word. One day, all of the Polybius machines inexplicably disappeared. Some say that it was a government experiment to see if brain washing was possible.

Game theory did an episode on it.
tl;dw The government can brainwash people. Thanks Obama.

There's a download of the game somewhere, to lazy to look for it though.
