Could the same be said about ball lightnings? Many common things became suspiciously rare after invention of pocket cameras. I’m not questioning gp’s credibility, because I also found myself in impossible situations like kitchen pot overheating and exploding dramatically, which supposedly should only happen in controlled lab circumstances. But I understand when people can’t believe. Added: we also should look for easier explanations, especially when it comes to early memories. Kid’s imagination is a powerful thing.
