Thread: can i die from lucid dreaming?

You can not die in reality from a lucid dream (or dream for that matter). Don't let anyone tell you any different.

Not from Lucid Dreaming, but I heard (I have really no evidence of this, haven't even researched it, so it may just be pure bullshit) that someone died during sleep paralysis due to a heart attack.
She "suffered" from sleep paralysis almost every night (I put ' " ' around suffered because I bet that most of us wish we had SP every night), and one of the HI's was so intense that she got a heart attack O.o.

However, I guess that if that really is true, she had no idea about what SP was really about, she had a weak heart and didn't know about lucid dreaming, more specifically the WILD technique.

How do you know that so sure i am open to the possibilty, this does not mean i say its possible i just asume it is

Kahiko,

The question is, what gives you the idea that one could die from lucid dreaming in the first place? What makes you more worried about lucid dreams than regular dreams?
