quade 4 #1 November 25, 2002 Just in case you're wondering -- yes. Woke me up screaming. In the dream this friend is wearing a BirdMan suit and is getting a ground tow. It's working for a few hundred feet or so, but then the cable snaps and he craters in just a couple of hundred feet away from us. What's really interesting is that I've never seen him wearing a BirdMan suit, I hadn't seen him this weekend, nobody I was with talked about a stunt like this all weekend. I have no freekin' clue where this dream came from.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dove 0 #2 November 25, 2002 No way I would want to know if someone had a bounce dream about me. I don't need that crap in my head. And some people are real superstitious and worried about jynx's and stuff. Sucks for you though - I hate those dreams! Fall in dove. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beachbum 0 #6 November 25, 2002 BTDT ... at Lost Prairie this year ... woke up after dreaming my friend went in ... then, the next day we jumped the DC-3 ... got under canopy and couldn't find his ANYWHERE in the air ... talk about getting worried ... got to the ground and immediately scanned the sky ... BIG sigh of relief when I found his canopy. It turned out he was almost straight above me while I was making turns with my head on a swivel ... had a shorter track, and a lot less snivel than I'd had .. said he watched me wondering if I was ever gonna totally inflate ...As long as you are happy with yourself ... who cares what the rest of the world thinks?

steve1 5 #11 November 25, 2002 Quade, You could always do what I did, like telling someone of this god awful dream of their death, even though you didn't really dream it, and then sit back and see what kind of reaction they had. I mean it's not always easy to keep yourself entertained. Some times it takes imagination. Steve1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skygod7777 0 #12 November 25, 2002 i would tell him because my buddy jason broke his back, and there was a guy had a dream with somthing like that happening to my buddy (jason). the dream was they saw jason laying in a field (like he was after he broke his back) but they weren't sure if he was hurt in the dream or if he was just laying there. and then then the jason had a dream that he had a cutway. and before jason went up, his pack job went to hell as he put it in the bag, and he look at me and said "should i redo it," and i said "oh hell you never redo it, just shove it in the bag" well jason had a cutaway, then on landing he broke his back under his piece of crap reserve that he had. when it stalled at half brakes. karma is a freaky thing. later Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have no freekin' clue where this dream came from That's what our imagination does, right? Create things from almost nothing? May I ask who it was? I actually had a dream last night that I was in a spin and about to go in and I woke up and sat straight up in bed. Don't know if I yelled when I woke up, but.... This I know was from my small scare I had Saturday, a stuck brake toggle that I had to reach over with the other hand to get out, didn't clear it until 1400....

flyinryan 0 #16 November 26, 2002 Funny you should ask this. I have had bounce dreams about myself and buddies...one came true. I had a dream about a buddy of mine having a line over on a BASE jump. Last monday night he did . The weird part is in the dream he just gets up after pounding into the ground. Last monday when I got to him (it took me a couple of seconds as I kept triping on my bridle) he was just standing there looking at the canopy. He was totally fine, just a little sore.
