Mike another are even when sleeping our eyes move during REM cycle, you barely remember that you speak during a dream. I experienced myself that dream you fall feels real and wake up with your hearth bumpin and scare 😮
Same here, though we had a outside Antenna bolted to the house. When we had issues getting channels my Dad went up on the roof and twisted the antenna until the channel came in 'good'. I remember being about 5 and being on the roof with my brother holding a rope attached to the Antenna while our father attached a new Antenna to the side of the house.
@@ricknemie93I remember climbing the fence to get up on the roof, sitting down on the edge of the roof and jumping off to the ground. I was 8 years old.🤭😄
I remember my parents buying our first television. It was a giant Zenith, the cabinet was huge and you could see the back of it glow, even after it was shut off. The screen was small tho. My mother found a thin plastic panel she could tape around the screen. Blue on top, flesh color in the middle, and green on the bottom. We had three channels, there was no pbs at that time. imagine watching top cat (cartoon) with rainbow distorted figures!! And all the neighbors came to oooh and ahh over our tv picture. Most of the channels were filled with snowflakes, my daddy would go to the roof and yell down, "how bout now?" at least a dozen times.
I am one of those people who have always dreamed in full colour, with all the background noise and/or music from the beginning, I was 10years old before I saw a colour TV....
My family got a color TV in about 1970. I was on in 1964, so I remember watching shows in black and white for all those years. Only one of our neighbors had a color TV, and anytime something big came on, we would all go over to Nell and George's a house to watch it on their TV.
I found this video very interesting. My wife says I can suck the blinds off the windows with my snoring. I also have a CPAP machine for my sleep apnea. I used to suffer from restless legs syndrome and still wake up startled and panicked sometimes, especially if I over sleep. I would like to see a video on 25 causes and effects on the body of sleep apena.
@@laurakibben4147 Yayy!! I’m not alone. Every now and then I cannot take my nap. Grouch is a good word. My husband would go “No nap, huh honey?” Unfortunately that means I crash around supper time or as easy as 8:00 PM. Messes everything up!
I remember growing up with just a black & white t. V. We did not have a remote. So I got chosen to be the remote control. When we had to change the channel in, we only had 3 channels LO. L.
4:28 As a born and raised South Dakotan, I feel like this applies to me. I used get shocked when out state friends would emphasize that 5-6 hours was the proper amount of time to sleep and me sleeping 7-8 hours was excessive and unnecessary, it so normal for me to get that much time to sleep. Especially when 90% of my hometown shuts down at 11pm, there is literally one grocery store, a handful of gas stations and one fast food restaurant that is 24 hours. Walmart used to be on that list but it closes at 11pm now, along with a tech hardware factory and the hospital, Walmart has overnight workers but no overnight patrons or customers. So we have enough time to slumber a full 8 hours or so.
@00Coyote That is not excessive sleep, they recommend adults sleep 7- 9 hours, everyones sleep habits are different, maybe your friends didn' t need as much.
I have a really hard time getting sleep if I have to wake up at a certain time. I find that I keep waking up to check the time. It is very frustrating!
So take it as a compliment that some of us listen to you while falling asleep. I do this and find your voice comforting ....we do listen and then the cadence and tone relax us and then.....blessed sleep! Thank you!
I have found his voice like a great teacher his pause are in the right place and the jokes make you pay attention and learn more. By the was it’s almost 2:30AM and I’m awake and watching this.
Have a rolling mind. Been known to sleepwalk. If I sleep 4 hours, I'm good. Drean frequently. Have had sleep paralysis. I've been this way my whole life. Not fun. Good one, Mike. Love the background😀✌️
I remember the days before color TV. Heck, I remember going to the store to test TV Tubes. We also had one of those "screen films" that had blue tint on top, and green on the bottom to simulate sky and grass (yeah, it was stupid). Side note - we got our first color TV using green stamps.
My mom had a boyfriend who was overweight and had undiagnosed sleep apnea. This was the 80's, so sleep apnea wasn't really heard of. Anyway he snored so loudly, you could hear it outside. We lived in an apartment complex, so it felt like every one heard him! Listening to him snore, then stop breathing and waiting for him to breathe again was nerve wracking as hell!
I often tell people i was born in 55BC (before colour (tv) ) It can also mean before computers (pc's) But i have no idea if i dreamt in monochrome back then
I was really tired one night driving home and fell asleep with my eyes wide open. I almost went off the road up woke up just in time. WOW! I never knew you could fell asleep with you eyes open. PS I sleep in the nude hate having anything on when I sleep. I am 77 years old and do take naps, but not nude.
I also watch you to fall asleep. Your facts are interesting and enjoyable enough to block my intrusive thoughts. I've watched pretty much every video you've made. Your happy demeanor and gentle voice are great for someone deep in depression and just looking for a single happy moment in their day
I’m another Boomer from the b&w tv days. It used to be a “tv set,” btw. We had NBC, CBS, ABC, and PBS. Rabbit ears and antennas were the norm. Most of us had no remotes, but it wasn’t a big deal wih only four channels. Being the smallest/youngest, it was my job to squeeze behind the tv and tweak the vertical hold when the picture “rolled.” First color tv in 1966 or ‘67. I rarely remember dreams, no idea whether they were in color or not. Just want to close with unwanted info: I sleep in the nude all summer long. Sweet dreams, Mike! 😂😂🤣🤣
Idk if anyone else has this happen, but I rarely go through sleep stages. Almost as soon as I fall asleep, I go directly to REM sleep. And I can also fall asleep in as few as 11 seconds.
I see Mike, I hit like! List 25 made a list about me! Instead of collecting all the Pokémon I caught all the sleeping disorders. Thankfully, I don't have fatal familial insomnia. Most people don't believe me when I tell them I have exploding head syndrome. Even physicians. I have Narcolepsy with Cataplexy, REM behavior sleep disorder, sleep walking, sleep eating, sleep cooking, sleep paralysis, tactile hallucinations when waking or falling asleep, auditory hallucinations when waking or falling asleep, visual hallucinations when waking or falling asleep, slower asleep, sit up when I sleep, fight when I sleep, have conversations when I'm asleep, have obstructive sleep apnea, and so many other things. Great list.
I also remember black and white TV, mom went to radio shows before TV. I’m also an insomniac thought that working overnights would work out - didn’t because couldn’t sleep in daytime- was even harder too easily disturbed by noises, speaking of which I would wake to loud noises not knowing if real or not - solved this one I got a cat now when I hear a loud noise I just sigh and wonder what I’ll find knocked over.!
My cats structured their already sleeping selves to my day sleeping several times. Unfortunately of late, brainless unaware neighbors didn't. Thanks to UA-cam's storms or frogs and crickets sounds for sleeping, probably mostly solved.
I'm actually surprised the percentage of people sleeping naked isn't higher. Sorry, I know you said to not comment about this, but that's just how surprised i am. I figured it would've been at least 50/50, if not higher. lol
I started doing so over 15 years ago. Originally just hot af nights and trying not to overheat. Then it just became a habit. Most people I know admit to it as well.
I think there are a lot more people who sleep in the nude then will admit it. I did it in my teens and early 20's. I might now in the summer but my husband would freak out and I am often up and down at night due to my preschooler not sleeping well.
I love sleeping nude. I miss it. I used to sleep nekkid, before I got dogs. My dogs insist on sleeping in my bed. They're very cuddly. Thus no more nude sleeping.
So funny about the Hawaii sleep fact. I used to live there. My favorite sleep game was to work 4 doubles a week and then have three days to sleep and nap as I pleased. My best friend who still lives there, age 55, gets 7 hours plus a nap and works 40+ a week. When I have to work a lot to live comfortably, my sleep schedule is my first priority.
Just caught the video about sleeping. Interesting, truly. Your voice has a soothing tone and rhythm that can encourage relaxation . Sometimes I'll find a audio book for the job
This is another awesome video, guys. Mike, your voice is soothing, and that is amazing. 😊 It just means we have to watch the video again to see what we missed. 😂 Keep up the awesome job. 😊❤❤😊
I have always dreamed in vivid color and surround sound… I consider my dreams very real while dreaming (mostly adventures…nightmare an extreme rarity)…if I did not wake up I would believe I was living in an alternate plane of existence
Love your videos. I have sleep apnea. Sadly, I have just found out that the pressure caused by the cpap or apap machines can also cause hearing loss. This is something they are just finding out.
You are never at all boring. You have a very pleasant voice. You seem like a wholesome individual with a gentle manner and a good sense of humor. One does not have to worry that you might say something jarring or offensive to the mind or the senses. Thus, it can be comforting and helpful in keeping intrusive thoughts at bay to listen to you while falling asleep. I really appreciate that.
Not only do I remember lack & white TV, but my family did not get a TV until I was 9 years 1960…Yep, I’m old. Also, please explore sleep walking. I have had a couple of occasions of having fallen asleep (with my eyes wide open) and continued to work at my typing job.
I was born when black and white tvs had very limited channel options. I have always dreamed in both black and white or color. Usually I can figure out my dreams, even the weird ones. Not special meanings but rather things on my mind or happenings during the day. Sometimes I can fall back asleep and continue a dream I want to return to.
Maybe Dickens was onto something... The eastern practice of "Feng Shui" recommends sleeping with your head pointed north so that your "Chi" (which runs from your feet to your head) can align itself with the Earths magnetic flow thereby helping improve everything from mental prowess to blood flow,....
It's funny but I will watch your videos before I go bed as well. You're not boring by any means. Your videos are just the right amount of interesting. They keep my mind engaged so that I am not thinking about stress or anything that may keep me awake without causing negative emotions or thoughts that might also keep me awake. I've always wondered what color people's dreams were before the invention of the tv. ???
Hi Mike! I was 10 when we got our first color TV. Even then a lot of the shows were in black and white. Some, like Gilligan's Island, Bewitched and the Beverly Hillbillies, started off in black and white then switched to color. I didn't have any changes in my dreams or sleep habits after the introduction of color TV. My son sleeps with his eyes mostly open. It took us a while to realize that he was really asleep. We would talk to him, asking why he didn't go to sleep, until he would wake up and give us a funny look and start crying (he was too young to talk), our doctor told us not to worry.
I've slept with my eyes open most of my life and have dreamed about things I see in my sleep. In high school, I was trying hard to reach Beatles' trading cards along the window above the back seat. I woke up with my arm outstretched toward the four photos from the White Album, on my bedroom wall. It was a real treat finding out a couple years ago that Paul sleeps with his eyes open.🤩
Hey Mike, greetings from Canada🍁 I remember watching Black and White television. I’d like to know how we dreamt before the invention of the Television. Hmmmmm?
7:48 I totally buy sleep being a “reset” issue. Anytime I’ve felt sick or even hungover, a nap may help, but it’s only after a full night’s sleep that I feel better. Even with an upset stomach.
I remember watching The Wizard of Oz, and even more, My Fair Lady on a tiny b/w TV as a kid. we didn't get a color TV until I was 8 or 9, and it was AMAZING!! And I do dream in very vivid color. Sometimes too vivid. Also, can you sneeze while you sleep?
I dream in color. I don’t remember if I ever had black & white dreams. However, I remember well, when I was 4 (late 60s), & my dad brought home a color tv! I truly thought we were rich!!😂😂
I listen to you to go to sleep 😅 I think you should take it as a compliment! My thoughts never stop which it makes it impossible for me to sleep in silence or listening to something boring. I have to find something that grabs my attention and i can listen without watching. So, thank you for your content that's interesting enough for me to fall asleep to!!
13:14 wait there’s actually a thing for why I can’t sleep later than 3am everyday?? My “normal” wake up time is between 1am and 3am every day and I’m usually asleep by 8pm most nights. I’ve tried sleeping pills and melatonin (doctor’s suggestions) to try and regulate my sleep and those haven’t helped. I also have one of those “fake sunrise/sunset” alarm clocks to try and reset my sleep schedule but it hasn’t been helping much either. 😐 I like the peace and quiet of the early mornings and accomplish a lot at that time but it would be nice to be able to stay up later in the evenings.
I dream in blindness because it's all my brain knows, despite the fact that I had perfect vision for the first 18 months of my life. I have no conscious memory of sight and I find it interesting that I apparently have no subconscious memory either. Sounds are the most vivid things.
My husband and I sleep in different rooms, and it’s the best thing in our marriage. The reason being, is because he snores like a bear. So with us sleeping in separate rooms, he gets his sleep, and I get mine, and we both wake up happy campers 👍😀👍!
@@thomaslong8401 I have a friend whose wife thinks it’s weird that my husband and I don’t sleep in the same bed, and that sleeping in different rooms is not how a marriage should be. I say, whatever actions need to be taken to have a strong marriage, then go for it. Sometimes the 1950’s method still works to this day 🙃!
I actually fell asleep with my eyes open once when I went to the movies with my friends a few years ago and as far as the jerking back awake just as I tall asleep that scares me all the time
I had about a month of sleep deprivation, while I still had a toddler. That was crazy scary, for my husband and I. Very stressful time of my life. I have experiment with sleeping in the nude, yes to the fact of all the benefits the scientists claim. It is hard when one has family checking in on one. 😢😮 I did it for 2 weeks last year.
I remember black & white tv very well, and at that time enjoyed it very much, especially with scary presentations, black & white was perfect. The first program I saw in colour was BATMAN. Extremely colourful show. Also I am a proud member of the 8% club. I too agree with prior comment that this number should be higher.
This one was really interesting Mike. I have this thing called... Delayed-sleep phase syndrome. I almost never hit the R.E.M stage of sleep It absolutely sucks. My Bruins face off against your Lightning tomorrow night. Good luck brother. You know the deal. Go Bruins...
After years of having to get up in morning to go to school and work, plus no longer having to live with someone who is a morning person, because I am now disabled to work and live alone, I can now be who I am. A super owl. I don't like doing mornings and if an appointment forces me to, I power nap after I get back from the appointment. I live afternoon to dawn. I have always dreamed in colour and I was born in 1961, in the UK before colour television was introduced, plus my family didn't have a colour television until 1976. I'm also one of those people who remembers vivid images from my dreams permanently. Once at school aged 13, we all had to write a novel for English. The cover of my story was a weird desert alien world with a pink and white sky, that I dreamed of one morning, then used as the planet, in my novel, that the charecters had their adventures on. I had an incident of EHS, some years ago and I thought my one of my bedroom windows had broken....weird. I had to look it up, to find out what had happened.
Since u talking about sleeping can u tell me y almost every time I go 2 sleep in da very beginning is like I'm falling off a skyscraper n when I'm about 2 hit da floor I jump?? Sometimes is very annoying cause it happens 1/2 times per night
As a kid of the 60's I can remember having to run outside and turn the antenna in the middle of a TV show . I can also remember every dream I have, and all my dreams have a series of 3 number and someone I know that has died.
I do not delay sleep! One of my favorite things to do is to take an afternoon nap. And a power nap for me is 1 1/2-2hrs long. I have gone longer but it messed up my night time sleep.
I was in a restaurant eating a crazy large breakfast. For a month before I was doing 22-hour days. ( us navy ready exercise). Fell asleep between bites of food with eyes wide open. Across the room a person thought I was dising him by staring. Almost got my facial features rearranged on that one.
Weird fact... I can drink coffee all day and go straight to bed and fall asleep at the end of the day. But if I touch tea AT ALL after 12pm, I can be stuck awake for 3 hours or more after bedtime. At the same time, neither source of caffeine gives me any level of the energy boost that it gives most other people. I think it is related to how codeine has no affect on me. Secret time, a LOT of pain medications have zero effect on me. For the removal of two wisdom teeth and a molar, Ibuprofen 800mg was my only option. (It helped, but didn't help all at the same time) lol
I have exploding head syndrome and its more annoying than anything else cos when I "hear" bangs, I know there's a 99% chance it's the EHS but I've gotta get myself up and go check the entire house to make sure
I'm 62 and I remember the black and white TVs know remotes rabbit ears or big tall antenna up against the house. And I do believe it or not dream in both, some have dull colors but I can distinguish the colors, others it's just pretty much a black and white gray thing😢💕🫨🤯😴.... But I also have sleep apnea
I grew up watching black and white t .very. I did not watch color t v until my teenage years. I always had dreamt in color I thought everybody did until about twenty five years ago..
I sleep with my eyes open sometimes. It scared the crap out of my mom first time it happened. Also something you definitely want to warn potential significant others about so it doesn't scare them😂.
I remember those huge wood cabinet style black & white televisions with all the tubes in the back. No "instant on" feature back then. You had to wait for it to warm up! And I dream in color or black & white. It seems to depend on the dream subject matter. And if I figure out I'm dreaming and can direct the dream while still asleep. A useful ability if a nightmare situation is going on.
Sometimes, I experience sleep paralysis. I hate it because my face would usually be sunk part way into the pillow. I'd feel like I'm almost suffocating and would try force my muscles to move.
TBI induced narcolepsy is no fun. Sometimes I fall asleep eyes open so quickly I can still see and hear what is going on around me and start dreaming instantly at the same time. Dreams superimposed over what I am actually seeing and hearing - kind of like listening to two radio stations at the same time but one is real life. Doing this down the interstate at 75mph, I learned to force myself to wakeup if I lost sound breifly. That was the only clue I had that it was happening. Meds work but lose potency in time. Sleeeping 18-22 hours a day and still really groggy is no life.
When I was a small child (4 to 6 yrs old), we still had a black and white tv. I typically dream in color but I have had some that start in black and white and transition to color (like in the Wizard of Oz). I experienced Exploding Head Syndrome. I have chronic insomnia as well so, sleep is a major pain for me. I can’t take sleep meds because my body will go into sleep walking which turns into me doing things like I’m awake. It’s terrifying. I have severe restless leg syndrome (RLS) and my brain wakes me up about 98 times per hour when I’m trying to sleep.

I’m also an insomniac thought that working overnights would work out - didn’t because couldn’t sleep in daytime- was even harder too easily disturbed by noises, speaking of which I would wake to loud noises not knowing if real or not - solved this one I got a cat now when I hear a loud noise I just sigh and wonder what I’ll find knocked over.!
My cats structured their already sleeping selves to my day sleeping several times. Unfortunately of late, brainless unaware neighbors didn't. Thanks to UA-cam's storms or frogs and crickets sounds for sleeping, probably mostly solved.
I'm actually surprised the percentage of people sleeping naked isn't higher. Sorry, I know you said to not comment about this, but that's just how surprised i am. I figured it would've been at least 50/50, if not higher. lol
I started doing so over 15 years ago. Originally just hot af nights and trying not to overheat. Then it just became a habit. Most people I know admit to it as well.
Yeah I sleep in the nude. It's better for your body to do so and to me it's just more comfy even in the cold winter time I use a heated blanket
I think there are a lot more people who sleep in the nude then will admit it. I did it in my teens and early 20's. I might now in the summer but my husband would freak out and I am often up and down at night due to my preschooler not sleeping well.
I love sleeping nude. I miss it. I used to sleep nekkid, before I got dogs. My dogs insist on sleeping in my bed. They're very cuddly. Thus no more nude sleeping.
My wife of 35 years has always slept naked, no complaints here.
So funny about the Hawaii sleep fact. I used to live there. My favorite sleep game was to work 4 doubles a week and then have three days to sleep and nap as I pleased. My best friend who still lives there, age 55, gets 7 hours plus a nap and works 40+ a week. When I have to work a lot to live comfortably, my sleep schedule is my first priority.
Just caught the video about sleeping. Interesting, truly.
Your voice has a soothing tone and rhythm that can encourage relaxation . Sometimes I'll find a audio book for the job
This is another awesome video, guys. Mike, your voice is soothing, and that is amazing. 😊 It just means we have to watch the video again to see what we missed. 😂 Keep up the awesome job. 😊❤❤😊
You look Comfy in your Dressing Gown, and keep those Fascinating Videos coming!
I have always dreamed in vivid color and surround sound… I consider my dreams very real while dreaming (mostly adventures…nightmare an extreme rarity)…if I did not wake up I would believe I was living in an alternate plane of existence
Love your videos. I have sleep apnea. Sadly, I have just found out that the pressure caused by the cpap or apap machines can also cause hearing loss. This is something they are just finding out.
You are never at all boring. You have a very pleasant voice. You seem like a wholesome individual with a gentle manner and a good sense of humor. One does not have to worry that you might say something jarring or offensive to the mind or the senses. Thus, it can be comforting and helpful in keeping intrusive thoughts at bay to listen to you while falling asleep. I really appreciate that.
Even in the early 90s I was watching tv with a black and white. I loved those days. My daughter doesn't know what a hi-fi is.
I vividly remember black and white TV. I Dream in B&W sometimes and color other times. Born 1955.
Not only do I remember lack & white TV, but my family did not get a TV until I was 9 years 1960…Yep, I’m old. Also, please explore sleep walking. I have had a couple of occasions of having fallen asleep (with my eyes wide open) and continued to work at my typing job.
I remember life BEFORE TV! I've always dreamed in colour! But I also have a few sleep disorders so, it could be related!
Mike, you're such a tease!
I was born when black and white tvs had very limited channel options. I have always dreamed in both black and white or color. Usually I can figure out my dreams, even the weird ones. Not special meanings but rather things on my mind or happenings during the day. Sometimes I can fall back asleep and continue a dream I want to return to.
I am with you, sir. I remember when our TV was black and white, and my brother and I were the remote control.
Maybe Dickens was onto something... The eastern practice of "Feng Shui" recommends sleeping with your head pointed north so that your "Chi" (which runs from your feet to your head) can align itself with the Earths magnetic flow thereby helping improve everything from mental prowess to blood flow,....
Same reason pasture animals always seem to be facing a certain direction 🤔
It's funny but I will watch your videos before I go bed as well. You're not boring by any means. Your videos are just the right amount of interesting. They keep my mind engaged so that I am not thinking about stress or anything that may keep me awake without causing negative emotions or thoughts that might also keep me awake.
I've always wondered what color people's dreams were before the invention of the tv. ???
Hi Mike! I was 10 when we got our first color TV. Even then a lot of the shows were in black and white. Some, like Gilligan's Island, Bewitched and the Beverly Hillbillies, started off in black and white then switched to color. I didn't have any changes in my dreams or sleep habits after the introduction of color TV.
My son sleeps with his eyes mostly open. It took us a while to realize that he was really asleep. We would talk to him, asking why he didn't go to sleep, until he would wake up and give us a funny look and start crying (he was too young to talk), our doctor told us not to worry.
I've slept with my eyes open most of my life and have dreamed about things I see in my sleep. In high school, I was trying hard to reach Beatles' trading cards along the window above the back seat. I woke up with my arm outstretched toward the four photos from the White Album, on my bedroom wall. It was a real treat finding out a couple years ago that Paul sleeps with his eyes open.🤩
Listen to you to fall asleep, a very high compliment! ^_^ Intriguing, interesting and entertaining as much as relaxing.
Dad brought home a color TV in 1967. I watched Daniel Boone and made everything blue? Good times...
Hey Mike, greetings from Canada🍁 I remember watching Black and White television. I’d like to know how we dreamt before the invention of the Television. Hmmmmm?
My friend thought someone was sneaking in and eating her food. She set up a camera and discovered she was sleep -eating.
Interesting. I never thought about it but I think I do dream in black and white.
My brother sleeps with his eyes open. Creepy.
7:48 I totally buy sleep being a “reset” issue. Anytime I’ve felt sick or even hungover, a nap may help, but it’s only after a full night’s sleep that I feel better. Even with an upset stomach.
I remember when color TV came out!! Really cool!!
I remember watching The Wizard of Oz, and even more, My Fair Lady on a tiny b/w TV as a kid. we didn't get a color TV until I was 8 or 9, and it was AMAZING!! And I do dream in very vivid color. Sometimes too vivid. Also, can you sneeze while you sleep?
It is very much a compliment to fall asleep to your voice. We are still listening and we are counting on you to guide us into sweet sleep.
I dream in color. I don’t remember if I ever had black & white dreams. However, I remember well, when I was 4 (late 60s), & my dad brought home a color tv! I truly thought we were rich!!😂😂
I listen to you to go to sleep 😅
I think you should take it as a compliment! My thoughts never stop which it makes it impossible for me to sleep in silence or listening to something boring. I have to find something that grabs my attention and i can listen without watching. So, thank you for your content that's interesting enough for me to fall asleep to!!
13:14 wait there’s actually a thing for why I can’t sleep later than 3am everyday??
My “normal” wake up time is between 1am and 3am every day and I’m usually asleep by 8pm most nights. I’ve tried sleeping pills and melatonin (doctor’s suggestions) to try and regulate my sleep and those haven’t helped. I also have one of those “fake sunrise/sunset” alarm clocks to try and reset my sleep schedule but it hasn’t been helping much either. 😐
I like the peace and quiet of the early mornings and accomplish a lot at that time but it would be nice to be able to stay up later in the evenings.
I recall very well the days of B&W TV!
We had a black and white TV when I was a kid in the 80s. We also had a color TV in our living room.
I dream in blindness because it's all my brain knows, despite the fact that I had perfect vision for the first 18 months of my life. I have no conscious memory of sight and I find it interesting that I apparently have no subconscious memory either. Sounds are the most vivid things.
My husband and I sleep in different rooms, and it’s the best thing in our marriage. The reason being, is because he snores like a bear. So with us sleeping in separate rooms, he gets his sleep, and I get mine, and we both wake up happy campers 👍😀👍!
Wife and I sleep separately also. I have insomnia and she snores loud! A bad combination.
@@thomaslong8401 I have a friend whose wife thinks it’s weird that my husband and I don’t sleep in the same bed, and that sleeping in different rooms is not how a marriage should be. I say, whatever actions need to be taken to have a strong marriage, then go for it. Sometimes the 1950’s method still works to this day 🙃!
I actually fell asleep with my eyes open once when I went to the movies with my friends a few years ago and as far as the jerking back awake just as I tall asleep that scares me all the time
I had about a month of sleep deprivation, while I still had a toddler. That was crazy scary, for my husband and I. Very stressful time of my life.
I have experiment with sleeping in the nude, yes to the fact of all the benefits the scientists claim. It is hard when one has family checking in on one. 😢😮 I did it for 2 weeks last year.
I remember black & white tv very well, and at that time enjoyed it very much, especially with scary presentations, black & white was perfect. The first program I saw in colour was BATMAN. Extremely colourful show. Also I am a proud member of the 8% club.
I too agree with prior comment that this number should be higher.
This one was really interesting Mike.
I have this thing called...
Delayed-sleep phase syndrome.
I almost never hit the R.E.M stage of sleep
It absolutely sucks.
My Bruins face off against your Lightning tomorrow night.
Good luck brother.
You know the deal.
Go Bruins...
Mike-25 things that will keep you up at night
Me- that's all just happening 😂
Never understood getting dressed to go to bed!
#1 is also what inspired the movie Nightmare On Elm Street
After years of having to get up in morning to go to school and work, plus no longer having to live with someone who is a morning person, because I am now disabled to work and live alone, I can now be who I am. A super owl. I don't like doing mornings and if an appointment forces me to, I power nap after I get back from the appointment. I live afternoon to dawn.
I have always dreamed in colour and I was born in 1961, in the UK before colour television was introduced, plus my family didn't have a colour television until 1976. I'm also one of those people who remembers vivid images from my dreams permanently. Once at school aged 13, we all had to write a novel for English. The cover of my story was a weird desert alien world with a pink and white sky, that I dreamed of one morning, then used as the planet, in my novel, that the charecters had their adventures on.
I had an incident of EHS, some years ago and I thought my one of my bedroom windows had broken....weird. I had to look it up, to find out what had happened.
I fall asleep with your videos your voice is just so soothing 😌
Oh thank you!
Since u talking about sleeping can u tell me y almost every time I go 2 sleep in da very beginning is like I'm falling off a skyscraper n when I'm about 2 hit da floor I jump?? Sometimes is very annoying cause it happens 1/2 times per night
Interesting video! 😁
As a kid of the 60's I can remember having to run outside and turn the antenna in the middle of a TV show . I can also remember every dream I have, and all my dreams have a series of 3 number and someone I know that has died.
I do not delay sleep! One of my favorite things to do is to take an afternoon nap. And a power nap for me is 1 1/2-2hrs long. I have gone longer but it messed up my night time sleep.
7:33 I was about to say that I know WHY I dream, that’s where creativity lies and I process whatever has happened the previous day
Surprised you didn't mention "sleep paralysis".
You, good Sir, are not boring. Glad to meet you
I'm a veteran of two wars and many conflicts and my days of getting a good night's sleep are in the wind for ever
I was in a restaurant eating a crazy large breakfast. For a month before I was doing 22-hour days. ( us navy ready exercise). Fell asleep between bites of food with eyes wide open. Across the room a person thought I was dising him by staring. Almost got my facial features rearranged on that one.
I wanted to hear something about sleep paralysis
Weird fact... I can drink coffee all day and go straight to bed and fall asleep at the end of the day.
But if I touch tea AT ALL after 12pm, I can be stuck awake for 3 hours or more after bedtime. At the same time, neither source of caffeine gives me any level of the energy boost that it gives most other people.
I think it is related to how codeine has no affect on me. Secret time, a LOT of pain medications have zero effect on me. For the removal of two wisdom teeth and a molar, Ibuprofen 800mg was my only option. (It helped, but didn't help all at the same time) lol
I have exploding head syndrome and its more annoying than anything else cos when I "hear" bangs, I know there's a 99% chance it's the EHS but I've gotta get myself up and go check the entire house to make sure
I'm 62 and I remember the black and white TVs know remotes rabbit ears or big tall antenna up against the house. And I do believe it or not dream in both, some have dull colors but I can distinguish the colors, others it's just pretty much a black and white gray thing😢💕🫨🤯😴.... But I also have sleep apnea
I'm 63 years old. Our first t.v was black and white. Got a color one when the price came down. 😊
Had to rewatch, fell asleep watching a few minutes ago..
I grew up watching black and white t .very. I did not watch color t v until my teenage years. I always had dreamt in color I thought everybody did until about twenty five years ago..
I sleep with my eyes open sometimes. It scared the crap out of my mom first time it happened. Also something you definitely want to warn potential significant others about so it doesn't scare them😂.
I remember those huge wood cabinet style black & white televisions with all the tubes in the back. No "instant on" feature back then. You had to wait for it to warm up! And I dream in color or black & white. It seems to depend on the dream subject matter. And if I figure out I'm dreaming and can direct the dream while still asleep. A useful ability if a nightmare situation is going on.
Sometimes, I experience sleep paralysis. I hate it because my face would usually be sunk part way into the pillow. I'd feel like I'm almost suffocating and would try force my muscles to move.
TBI induced narcolepsy is no fun. Sometimes I fall asleep eyes open so quickly I can still see and hear what is going on around me and start dreaming instantly at the same time. Dreams superimposed over what I am actually seeing and hearing - kind of like listening to two radio stations at the same time but one is real life. Doing this down the interstate at 75mph, I learned to force myself to wakeup if I lost sound breifly. That was the only clue I had that it was happening. Meds work but lose potency in time. Sleeeping 18-22 hours a day and still really groggy is no life.
When I was a small child (4 to 6 yrs old), we still had a black and white tv. I typically dream in color but I have had some that start in black and white and transition to color (like in the Wizard of Oz). I experienced Exploding Head Syndrome. I have chronic insomnia as well so, sleep is a major pain for me. I can’t take sleep meds because my body will go into sleep walking which turns into me doing things like I’m awake. It’s terrifying. I have severe restless leg syndrome (RLS) and my brain wakes me up about 98 times per hour when I’m trying to sleep.
1:48 but it takes me at least 45 minutes to GET to sleep. so that 26 minutes doesn’t help me much
Same
