I Was Having Such a Nice Dream
A character finds themselves in an important prophetic dream, receiving vital information from a dead relative in a near-death experience, or just having a terribly good time in their head, when they hear the phone ringing or someone shouting their name and they are defibrillated back to the land of the living, just before the really good bit.
Can result in
Feather Fall
Everyone knows that it's Not the Fall That Kills You…, but the landing. That said, the fall ain't great either, so there's little wonder that people have been looking for ways to deal with both since time immemorial. In fiction, with the presence of magic or advanced technology, there are many fantastical methods used by characters to protect themselves from a long drop or the uncomfortable consequences thereof.
