Answer 1

WELL YES. DEPENDING ON HOW SCARED YOU ARE YOU MIGHT GO INTO A PANIC ATTACK AND REALLY DIE FROM PANIC

Answer 2

It's an old urban legend. No.

Answer 3

Who knows? Sometimes people don't wake up from sleep, who knows if it was dream related?

Answer 4

Well, if that has happened, certainly no one has lived to tell about it! :)

It's possible people have dreams like that if they have problems breathing. Also, a person could be having a very mild heart attack. It's been shown that most people have many very mild heart attacks during their lives, so it's part of the process of living, I guess.

Try to eat well, get enough exercise, then just allow yourself to completely relax when you are ready to go to sleep. The better you sleep, the more rested you will be, and the less you will worry needlessly.

Have fun!

Answer 5

Answer 6

No, No my dear

take this from me (I'm a professional dream interpreter)

you can not die from a dream.  A dream is our subconcious tryign to work out problems, often we have dreams for a reason.

Dreaming of falling means.

To dream that you fall and are not frightened, signifies that you will overcome your adversities with ease.

To dream that you fall and are frightened, indicates a lack of control, insecurity, and/or lack of support in your waking life. You may be experiencing some major struggle and/or overwhelming problem. It may denote that you have failed to achieve a goal that you have set forth for yourself.

To dream that you are free-falling through water, indicates that you are feeling overwhelmed with emotions. You may feel that it is easier to give up then to try to stay afloat or prevent yourself from going under.

This is very very common to dream of falling and if you hit the ground it will not cause you to die in real life.
