if a flying dream is such a rare occurrence (0.5%)

How can it be so many (50%) of the people recall 'm at all?

He either means 1 in 200 dream events is "weird" or 1 in 200 dream events is a "flying on our own power" dream

if half of the people recall having them, how do we know the other half just doesn't remember these rare dream events?

When we don't pay attention (like keeping records) to our dreams we remember maybe 3 or 4 dreams/week that's 1 weird dream memory in 100 to 133 weeks

no way!

Why can't we "read the minds" of our dreamt up characters? How are dreams written/made up?

I had a totally realistic dream I was having a discussion with my family about reality, so I demonstrated to my family that if I was awake I wouldn't be able to levitate... I floated up to the ceiling and woke up. :)

Thanks for sharing this video here. This is so informative and so comprehensive. Indeed, dreams are so mysterious and may be symbolic or metaphoric.

Dreams will always be a mystery to us. Mystery is always interesting. Thanks for the discussion.
