Know any urban myths?

When my parents first came over here from Italy and found work, the lady that looked after me when i was a small boy always used to say to me when i was being a pain and pulling faces, 'if the wind changes, your face will be stuck like that'

Still makes me smile now :)
 
I always thought that riding a motorbike on water was a myth, until a saw a youtube clip that is. Unless the clips are fakes, but why would you ever you want to do that?
Saw a competition in a motorcycle magazine in the 90s, and it was offering a prize, for anyone who successfully rode a certain distance on water. Not sure if anyone took up the offer, as surely bikes would end up under water.

I played an ELO LP backwards to hear the words "time is reversible, but music is not. Turn back! Turn back!" So not a myth. But that was deliberate. Some people claimed there were messages where there were none intended.

I remember this from college. One of my friends was convinced that this was a satanic message until we put it on a turntable and hand-cranked it backwards. (Not as easy as you might think.) How we laughed.
