Has anyone ever had a dream where you fall and you sort of wake up and kinda jolt a bit??

Question

this happens alot to me but i noticed it happening every time i fall of a building or sumthing in my dream but wen i do all of a sudden i sort of feel it like sort of like a little jolt and then i kind of wake up but then i fall asleep again quickly.

Answer 1

I've actually known some people that dreamt they hit the ground.  I get the jolt thing, but only when I'm falling asleep and I don't dream anything.  I think it's my body's way of transitioning into sleep mode.  Weird, huh?

Answer 2

if you jolt awake and your dreaming falling then you body does it to wake you up so you dont die b/c if you hit it ground in your dream your brain will think its real and shut down and you will die, i know it sounds wierd but its true.

Answer 3

Answer 4

yeahhh this has happened to me and like all my friends but its not really a dream, its like right before your about to fall asleep you just start falling then you "wake up" and spazz

Answer 5

yes this happened to me when i was a teenager. i was on a cloud then gravity kicked in and i fell to earth. when i hit..i hit the bed really hard. Later in life i learned that was astral travel and my mind was dreaming in the cloud to rationalize the travel

Answer 6

Yup. That's usually the summation of an astral travel. =) you come back into your physical body with a jolt.

Answer 7

ya, ive done it once when i was awake and not falling it was really weird and when it happens i usually like jump off the bed when i fully wake up lol
