If you watch some programmes on Discovery Channel, where they debunk some old myths and legends, and reveal how some ghost pictures are created using simple tricks, they state the reasons why some urban legends and such are persistent
It include the society wanting some sort of heroes, some conspiracy theories etc etc. Some of the legends also use bit of logic too.
Anyway, i believe there should be existence of urban legends..well to be taken with pinches of salt, but they really enrich and add a bit of colour to our culture.
Who want to be stuck with the same old clean Singapore everyday?
OK!
