This happened to me once. But then I hallucinated seeing the Tooth-Fairy, so......

I really dig the computer/human analogy.
When this experience happened to me, I was absolutely terrified the first time. It happened to me twice that I can remember, and I felt a presence. Like a demon or something coming to devour my lifeless body as I lay there helpless. I can only imagine how a wrapped up fly must feel in a spiders web....

Anyone here experienced a "falling" feeling?

It happens to me sometimes, just before getting asleep, I feel like the bed abruptly disappears letting me fall down...lasts less than 2 seconds, yet it's pretty weird and sometimes scary.

I remeber one dream I had, were I had a heavy bag over one shoulder, and I got off a bus/train on a huge suspention bridge, and as the train pulled away, a gust of wind off balanced me and the weight of the bag took me off the bridge. I vividly remember the feeling of falling, and as I fell I could see a brown cliff face pasing me by, I woke up with my eyes open, and the clif face was still burned into my mind, but I was actually looking at the light filtered through my brown sleeping bag. This was similar to the times when I have have been woken up from a dream by a telephone, but this time it was very visual in nature and has always been in the back of my mind. I was really blown away by it.

Ouch yeah!! Hate when it happens. I dream i'm falling down a cliff (always the same cliff, Látrabjarg. Lots of puffins there.) or falling in a swimmingpool. The one at the hotel i stayed at in Portugal. Weird

Oh yeah the falling dream I've had the happen before many a time, really freaky when it happened, once it was from a plane for some odd reason, the other time it was just out of nowhere I began to fall from somewhere, and then waking up whoa quite the rush.

Once i was talking to my mom in the kitchen. The doors to it were closed. I was going to go out, so i walked towards the doors. When i was almost there, i suddenly couldn't see a thing. Everything went pitch black. I started screaming, then i felt really dizzy and fell to the ground.

This felt nothing like fainting, i've done that millions of times. This was strange.

I've done that a lot. I thought it was cool cause I felt blind. I've also had the falling feeling, but I have it soo intense that it wakes me up. It's so bad that I hate it when it happens. :blink:

Yeah, usually i have hard time falling asleep again.

@Evad
What do you mean by you dig my analogy?

@all

I used to have falling dream like that, bu a bit different. I remeber once I was dreaming about I was chased by a giant T-Rex in some dark abandoned industrial complex. That was horrifying. It was about to get me when I fell of the catwalk down to the pipe covered, steam filled void. I could see the floor coming with a blinding high speed, and I could swear I felt the impact with my body, several bones fracturing in the same time including my skull and squishing the crap outta me. When I woke up I was covered in cold sweat and I was shaking like hell. I was just sitting there in the brink of hysteria for almost an hour. It was a real horror If I think back I still go shaking and I almost crap myself of the fear...

The worst dream i have ever had was few years ago. I dreamt that i was being chased by couple of trolls, and the ground was shaking. It was a big field, with cliffs on each side of me. The cliffs were breaking down.
Then I woke up and everything was shaking. It was an earthquake, the biggest recorded in the history of iceland. That was friggin scary.

The first thing that came to my mind was "HECK!! The window is going to break!!!"
