    LOL thats not possible because it is just a DREAM many people about dying from their dreams but some of them tells us that they don’t die in real life.

    I don’t think it is possible to die in your dreams. If pinching yourself in a dream is enough to wake you up, how much more if you’re dying? I think you will regain consciousness before you die!

    However, there is this theory that if you die in your dreams you can die in real life as well. Doctors and scientists coined this condition for now as Acute Hemorrhagic Pancreatitis. Funny thing is they can’t really prove this theory since no one has live to tell about it! hahaha! but this is the closest thing we got. People with this condition usually died during their sleep… =(

    Based on my personal experience, it is possible to see yourself dead and this is a perfect example of lucid dreaming coz most of the time you realize that its not real. For some though, they thought that they really are dead and sees themselves as a ghost! Now, I am not talking about dying in a dream alright? I’m talking about seeing yourself as already dead… ^_^ I hope I am not confusing you guys…

    Alex is right, you can’t die in real life if you die in your dream. I’ve experienced it for few times. What happened was when I die in my sleep I wake up in real life. About the Acute Hemorrhagic Pancreatitis, I think that’s an illness that strikes when we sleep, I think dream has got nothing to do with that.

    I also have had death dreams…..or close to death dreams, and always seem to wake up JUST before the END..:-) I think there is something hardwired in our conciousness that probably makes the notion of actually dying in our dreams, and actually seeing it, a pretty overwhelming idea, which is why I believe we probably wake up beforehand. (although as mildred points out above, some people don’t, are are fine!)

    I do think you can cause your self some serious anxiety though in a nightmare, and it wouldn’t surprise me if that could cause a heart attack, etc – dream related that we simply don’t hear about….because they aren’t around to share!
