Not as impressive but in the town where I grew up there is a really skinny woman who seems to be jogging like non stop. When I was in elementary school there was a rumor saying she had some disease which would make her heart stop if she stopped running and all the kids thought it was true. A few years ago when mentionning it to a younger sister (6 years difference) I learnt the rumor was still going strong when she was a kid, and then we both learnt that it was still the case when our even younger sister (12 years difference) was a kid.

There was an old man and his elderly wife that would take regular walks by my school as a kid. The woman looked like she was made of plastic and the rumors were that she was a giant doll. They called her the barbie lady. When my sister went to school it was just the man walking and the rumors were that he melted his wife and made his cane with her. Kids are WILD. Those poor elderly people were just trying to have a damn walk lol

Damn... It was just him walking though that sucks :(
