Thread: can i die from lucid dreaming?

No, but you can die from a reaction to dream content. Most typical is a heart attack.

Troll, but I'm going to reply anyway.

Any assertion that you can die in a dream can't be backed up. How the hell are you going to know what a dead person was dreaming about?

I believe you might have misread the post you were replying to. The post you read, in case you read it differently than I did, meant that it's possible to have a heart attack from having a terrifying nightmare, an incredibly shocking dream, etc. It's very unlikely, but still possible, and therefore is valid to be mentioned, though it's not a death within a dream, it would be a death you had if you went into cardiac arrest upon awakening from the dream.

So, you're right: /argument
