My brother who is the genius of the family (debateable) thought he could fly if he tied a towel around his neck and jumped off the roof.
Me, being the idiot knew that would not work.

Talcum powder mixed with glitter. Everytime I give her some she sprinkles it on her head and jumps off the porch

Santa Claus left some, so did the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, Birthdays, etc. She is always so disappointed not to be able to fly, I tell her it is because we do not have the fairy there for the magic.

Curb that desire to fly.  To make a long story short, I tried to fly off the roof of the chicken coop, and all that happened is I scared the crap out of the chickens. 

Lol is that possible? To curb an adventurous child's desire to fly? My father and his brothers built an "airplane" out of a wooden crate and 2x4s. They were going to do their inaugural flight pushing it off the roof of the house with their youngest brother inside it. Fortunatly Grandma caught them

This is really embarrassing but when I was little I used to hold my arms out and spin around really really fast cause I knew helicopters did that and I thought maybe if I did it fast enough I could lift off...

never did but i did get some pretty good air flow sometimes lol

We always tried umbrellas

Well if you tucked it into your pants legs and held on to the corners, seems like it should have worked.

I also made a giant kite and tried to hang glide off the hill in back of the house - that didn't work either.

Hang gliders and flying squirrel pants have some potential.
Superman did not.

He believed anything on TV.

Hmmm. Wonder if you had a lot of head injuries from your early flying pursuits, Sour. That would explain a lot about you.

The childhood dog licking his face until he is conscious again, and from that point forward he knew he had met man's best friend.

Diva, I left you puppies and ice cream on random pictures.

Well, everyone knows you have to have a proper cape.....Batman, Superman, not just a towel
