It goes without saying that a lot of people have certain desires that they keep to themselves. So when Reddit user u/noah_18-05 asked: "What is a secret fantasy you believe is more common than people are willing to admit?" close to three thousand people provided their answers. Here's what they had to say below:
1."Riding in a bulldozer across a large parking lot and smashing all the cars."
2."To leave their life behind and start new somewhere else."
3."I firmly believe every dude growing up had a specific Die Hard-type plan for when terrorists inevitably showed up at your school."
"I’d get shot, but I would survive, and my crush would finally like me."
4."Pausing time and doing whatever you wanted for a bit."
"Pauses time during a 15-minute break at work and proceeds to sleep for eight hours before going back to work."
5."Exploring dangerous places, like Chernobyl, Egyptian tombs, and abandoned buildings (e.g. old asylums)."
6."Jumping off a tall building and walking away unharmed."
"Aim for the bushes!"
7."Planning for and imagining oneself living in a post-apocalyptic world."
8."Being alone on a deserted island."
"In the same vein, having everyone else on Earth disappear. It's one of those weird things I end up thinking about sometimes when I'm bored. Running through what my hypothetical plan of action would be, just like how people imagine what they would do in a zombie apocalypse."
9."I don't believe a single human on earth has never, at one point, tried to levitate something with their mind by staring VERY hard at it. We all kind of want Matilda's powers."
"When I was a kid and forgot to turn the light off before going to bed, I would stare at the light switch really intensely in hopes of the light turning off.
One time, it actually worked. I later learned that we had a power outage. You can not imagine the disappointment little me felt."
10."I don't know how to explain it any other way, but I want my back to be stretched out like how Mr. Incredible got stretched by the robot in the first movie."
"This has legitimately been my fantasy since I first saw the movie at 6 years old, and I’m so happy to see someone else put it into words, lmao."
11."I believe everyone fantasizes about finding random romance with a passerby on a train or the bus or in public and being swept away into some romantic new life — but everyone is too afraid to say hello."
12."I can't imagine I'm the only one who constantly fantasizes about going back in time and talking to a younger me, right?"
13."Riding a giraffe."
