Getting hit by a car (on purpose)...

I wanted to stop a car with my bare hands. Was in a sort of funny mood.

Anyhow, I became lucid in the middle of a conversation (somehow, conversations turn me lucid 88% of the time), remembered the "getting hit by car" wish.

First, I cranked up the realism to the maximum by examining details, then falling through the floor into darkness upside down. It worked unusually well that night, because when I stopped falling and ended up on a street, I wasn't even sure it was a dream, everything was so realistic. I could smell the fumes of the car and feel the hot, stale air.

Soon enough, I saw a small white car going towards me at what must have been 200 km/hour. I stood on the road. Instead of stopping, the car accelerated to the maximum when I did that. I stood in front of it, and told myself I had unmeasurable strenth.

Unfortunately, thanks to the realism, I wasn't sure of myself, and it didn't work. I probably flew twenty feet, and crashed into a window of a nearby house, falling onto the floor riddled with broken wood. Thanks to the realism, I could feel my left foot torn off, while my right was broken in probably six places at once. I couldn't breath (which made me panic), and I could feel blood coming out of my nose, ears and mouth.

I blacked out twice, feeling dull, but very intense flashes of real pain in my head (and it felt damn real). Twice I pictured myself in perfect health with all body parts intact, but it had absolutely no effect, and the pain got actually worse.

Finally, I could muster myself and woke up by trying to feel my real hand (as opposed to my dream hand).

Once I woke up, I felt perfectly fine, but I was sweating like hell.


The moral is: Kids, don't try this without being certain you are a very experienced lucid dreamer, and can control every aspect of the dream.

bloody intense :o i can believe you were sweating when you woke up :mrgreen:

i've attempted to place myself in the path of an oncoming vehicle in a lucid as well (wanted to see if i could pass through it)...i was floating around my neighborhood, and noticed a pretty steady stream of large trucks heading to a construction site down the road..

saw a semi appoaching at a brisk pace, and struggled to get in front of it...however, i couldn't control my floating/flying well enough, and just barely brushed the side with my hand as it rushed by in a gust of warm air.

the hardness and realism of that small touch was enough to make me glad i hadn't fully gotten in front of it though :lol:

though part of me was dissappointed i didn't get to see what would have happened, even if it had been painful...after all, one can't actually get hurt in a lucid...and what doesn't kill you makes you stronger (mentally in this case).

cool (though intense) lucid :wink: thanks for sharing

This is where I love my extreme lucid powers :D
I once had a dream in which a car approached me (and me in lucid state, thought it would be funny to stop it as well :P).

I held my hand in front of it and it just ''drove through an invisible portal''.

So when it would touch my hand, instead, the part that touched it would vanish. so it was as if I ''warped'' the car away. lol.

OMG this has got to be the funniest post ive ever read. i cant stop laughing! im copying and pasting this message to my desktop.

Ya I tried passing thought vechiles, I tried it with a train (ha and your scared of a car?). Passing thought the train worked for a while but I actually ended up inside the train with both my legs and arms and not harmed. :D Maybe if you do want to stop the car agian and have doubt just pass thought it.
