Childhood horror stories
I just realized in the poem Humpty Dumpty, it never actually says he's an egg. What if he was just some drunk fat guy.

"Perhaps the most popular theory today is that Humpty Dumpty was a large cannon used by Royalist forces to defend Colchester in 1648. The weapon, mounted on the church tower of St. Mary-at-the-Wall and expertly fired by a Royalist gunner named 'One-eyed' Jack Thompson, successfully held off the Parliamentarians (or Roundheads) for eleven weeks before succumbing to a direct hit that resulted in 'a great fall' from the tower."

Wow just wow

Also, the term Humpty Dumpty was a name for a type of beer in the 16th century, but then in the 17th it was slang for a clumsy, fat man. But of course, the cannon theory is much more plausible. Who would write a nursery rhyme about a random fat man falling off of a wall?
