There's a theory that dreams serve as a sort of simulation mechanism for our brain to think through how to respond to various potential situations. It argues that is why natural disaster nightmares are so prevalent, and why our dreams are so weird (monkey brain does not understand modern society).
Anyways, good for them, I'm glad their brain figured out what to do about hypothetical McWeird.
So if a monster chases me in real life, instead of running I’ll crouch, grab the ground, and launch myself forward to get away (because I can’t run in dreams).
If you have a good imagination and a strong application you can fly in dreams too. But i think only a specific few can fly or control their dreams.
I was able to do it in teens and lost it growing up…
