inchworm -> gymnastics

Gymnastics at school was and is feard in our family. Being tall is very contraproductive to fast rotations. Too much body mass is far away from centre of gravity. But swimming, high jump, javelin or discus throwing,... long arms and legs are very welcome.

taught -> Hänschen

Was Hänschen nicht lernt, lernt Hans nimmermehr.

Hänsel und Gretel -> Brockengespenst / Brocken spectre

In german mythology witches meet at the Brocken at Walburgis-night. The Brocken is the highest mountain in northern Germany. It is a lonely top with high wind speeds and very cold. We had a search and rescue there when I was at army. Tourists visited the top at storm and got lost.

The Brockengespenst is nowadays known as being the shadow of the watcher on foggy foreground with the sun in the back.

Dr Strange -> Doktor Faustus and Mephistoteles

Goethe's masterpiece Faust is based on the historical Doktor Faustus. Born in Wetzlar and Goethe being there as an apprentice at germany's highest court - we had a lot of Goethe at school. Better make this when our family was again in Wetzlar for some weeks I had to read all the stuff the classmates read in a year in 3 weeks...
