#7 Broken Mirrors
The reason we are afraid of breaking a mirror is that we think we will get seven years bad luck Part of the reason is that in past mirrors were so expensive it would cost people seven years worth of salary to replace them. Another reason is that doctors used mirrors as a sort of x-ray and if the glass broke, the person was given a prognosis that they would be very ill for seven years.
