> I've posted this before, but yes, I have died in a dream.  Twice.  Still alive, though, from what I can tell.
  I used to suicide in dreams.  When I was a kid, I would often realize that I was dreaming, and generally the fastest way to wake up from a dream was to get killed.  There were several instances when, during dreams that I was being chased by monsters, I realized it was a dream and just let myself get caught.  I would also jump off buildings and stuff. Falling is fun!
  The most memorable dream I had was after seeing Jurassic Park, I dreamt that I was being chased by raptors.  I let them catch me, and I actually *felt* my flesh being ripped into.  That was not cool.  Strangely enough, after I died I came back as a raptor, which WAS cool.
  Probably the worst dream I had was one where I couldn't die.  I was stuck in this deserted city, all alone, and had NOTHING to do.  It was a horrible, isolated feeling.  But I was incapable of dying (jumped off a ton of buildings) and I knew I was dreaming.  It was terrible thinking that I might be trapped indefinitely there; in addition to the isolation I was incredibly bored.
