Extreme speed

Has it ever happend to you?
In a FLD last night i was ice skating and i must of been going 25/30 mph and i cant ice skate.

In other dreams ND/FLD ive noticed this when im doing something that isnt just with my body (i.e not running walking)
while doing a sport im really fast. but when i walk or run i seem to go really slow.

This mainly happens to me in FLD’s

Changed title from “Extreme spead” to “Extreme speed”

I don’t know how people can make spelling mistakes like that…

When I tried to fly in my first LD I tried running as fast as I can and jump. I got running pretty fast before I jumped.

I thought there was something wrong with it

Yes, I’ve had this experience to varying degrees, though it’s not one of my more common dream abilities.

Probably the fastest speeds I’ve ever reached in dream were while I was flying. I was moving so fast that everything around me seemed to slow down dramatically, and I’m pretty sure I must have looked like a blur to the person I was flying circles around at the time. But that was a one-off.

More typically, I find myself doing things at a much slower but still-impossible rate. Certainly not fast enough to get up to “blur” speeds, anyway. Like you, it tends to happen to me when I’m doing something I wouldn’t normally be doing, like swimming, running a marathon, or even flying on a broomstick! :content:

I’m flying faster in my ND’s than in my LD’s. I never experienced a very high speed, but a friend of mine (experienced LD’er) says he can fly as fast as a fighter! :smile:

A witch! She’s a witch! Burn her! :rofl:

this has happened to me many times, only thou when im running/swiming in nd…

//im bad swimmer, and when running in dream it feels like i never get tired…

but back to topic, this might pretty interesting thing to do research for…

One of my first high lucidity LD’s I forced myself to run at high speeds. Its odd, I was running really fast but it seemed like a part of me was ahead of me looking around at the houses I was passing in slow motion. I had the time to bring out a friend of mine in the houses whlie running at that fast speed. It was also hard to stop.

in NDs… I have had those dreams where you are walking but it is extremely slow, like its a chore to get to the other side of the street.

Maybe its like when you watch a pot prepareing to boil. It seems to take forever but when your mind is on somthing else it seems to happen in no time. Maybe that is why when you (newb) are walking you focus on the walking and not what your walking to so it seems like slow motion. But when you are doing sports in a ND, your mind is on the sport and not on the walking aspect of the sport.

Dunno just a few thoughs,
