Editing Luger Noord (section)

== Early life ==
Luger Noord was born on 21 May 1968 in [[Rotterdam]], [[Netherlands]], and grew up there with his older brother Walter. During their childhood, the brothers regularly bothered residents by asking them about papers and certificates. They developed a game called ''Birth Certificate'', in which they asked residents to show their [[birth certificate|birth certificates]]. After receiving a document, they tore it apart and ran away. The game resulted in complaints from residents.<ref name="walter-early-life"/>

At school, Noord argued with teachers when he considered their instructions unclear and often refused to change an answer once he believed it was correct. He preferred written work to class discussion and developed a habit of checking names and dates on school forms. As a teenager he became quieter, although he remained difficult to direct. He continued spending much of his free time with Walter in [[Rotterdam]] and [[Vriendendam]].

By 1983, the brothers were spending time around municipal buildings and asking staff about certificate forms. In 1984, Luger entered a municipal registry office in Vriendendam with Walter and argued with staff about the wording of a birth certificate form. He refused to leave after being ordered out of the office, and local police removed him from the building. Noord was arrested and released after questioning.
