Yeah I’ve done the “rubbing hands”-trick that is supposed to anchor the lucid dream, and I’ve had some success with it. I love dreams and Inception is an awesome movie… and I actually had a dream that reminded of the “zero gravity fight scene in the hall”. I was in a building and the whole building was falling down, but falling VERY slowly. So eventually the spiral-stairs where pointing outwards instead of upwards (almost leaning 90 degree) so you couldn’t use the stairs but instead you had to climb the outside of the spiral-stairs. A weird dream and it ended good cause the building kind of got turned upside-down and everyone was okey…
So you heard the people say BOOM very loudly? But couldn’t that just have been the thunder that you heard IRL that your dreams adjusted to? That’s also something really interesting; when dreams are influenced by external sounds/sights. I used to have a radio-channel that started as an alarm, but every now and then the radio-chatter would be picked up by my thoughts and thrown into a dream-scenario.
Has anyone seen Waking Life?
