In your dreams are you in third person or first person view?

Another question: There are many dream checks to see if your dreaming or not like reading something, looking away and reading it again. But why not make it more simple like attempting to fly? I mean if you try to fly and you do, then your obviously dreaming. So why choose the reading texts or remembering things techniques when you can get right to it by trying something you would never be normally able to do?

I see your point, but there is another reality check which is both easier and less likely to backfire. The nose-pinching check. In case you’re not familiar with it, what you do is tightly pinch shut your nose with your hand and then attempt to breathe through your nose. If you are dreaming you will still be able to breathe. This method basically has a 100% success rate and also has the added bonus of not looking utterly ridiculous (such as thrusting yourself into the air and flapping your arms). By the way, fun fact: you can always breathe while dreaming, regardless of being underwater, in space, etc. Try it .

My dreams are often in third person, in fact I’m often various different characters. I.E not myself. I have switched between two different characters perspectives and disembodied observer perspective within the same dream. Also occasionally my dream will pan out from first person perspective so I can watch the events from a distance. It’s almost like in movies. Strange since I rarely watch movies
