There was claimed to be a lady who roamed the streets all night long, she was called The Lipstick Lady, because she was supposed to have lipstick smeared all over her face. This woman would supposedly be out walking all night, every night, because she was insane. It was also claimed that you couldn't get photos of her- if you took one with her in it, she just wouldn't show up, or your camera would just quit working.
This is no Urban Legend. One brave soul actually managed to get a photo:
WOW ! Too bad I've already posted the babe of the day
Not exactly an urban legend, but my brother to this day believes that "hot" water will freeze faster than "cold" water, and conversly that "cold" water will boil faster than "hot"
My nephew and I tried an experiment where we took the coldest water we could get and put it on the stove to boil and wrote down the time of how long it took. Then we took an equal amount of hot tap water and boiled it and wrote down the time. When we showed him the results he said "you didn't do it right"
Wowie Groovie !
