I was, for some hours, in a parallel reality with different laws of physics. Even if I hallucinated it all, as you can apparently do on high doses of drugs like atropine and scopolamine, it is remarkable if only for demonstrating the power of the mind (some would insist on "brain").
I've read that on morphine, you can have dreams so real you can read a book in them! I've noticed that in my ordinary dreams, when I start trying to read, the message starts "morphing" (not a pun on morphine!) into different, increasingly vague, things and soon enough you wake up.
