Well, I was once an Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, so I think I might be of some assistance. Well, firstly, it really helps to be a citizen of the United Kingdom or other Commonwealth realms ruled by the Queen, otherwise you'll just have to deal with being an honorary member.
Anyway, I saved the whales and the Queen was like "Shit, man, you saved the whales hardcore." And I was like "Yeah, baby, le's make out." So we made out for like a half hour, and then we went up to her room. She started taking off her clothes and said, "Let me slip into something more comfortable. *wink*" I said, "Girl, if I'm-a have sex wit you, you gots ta do somethin fer me."
So that's how it happened in my case. Of course, there are other approaches, and you might want to look into that.

Yeah, because of sleep paralysis, I sometimes roll out of my body, once I was able to float down my hallway to my living room.
The experience is quite common in dreams, daydreams, and memories, where we quite often take the external perspective. Some people experience an OBE while under the influence of an anesthetic or while semi-conscious due to trauma. Some people have an OBE while under the influence of drugs. OBEs have been induced by electrically stimulating the right angular gyrus (located at the juncture of the temporal and parietal lobes).* Finally, some people experience an OBE when they are near death (near-death experiences or NDEs).
Do drugs, get OBE.
I had the sleep paralysis many times when I first started taking an antidepressant called Pamelor years ago. I didn't know about OBE's at the time, but thinking back to how frightening the paralysis was, I don't believe I could ever let it continue long enough to float out.
If that's what happens in death, it's gonna suck. Guess you'd get used to it though and if there were people around maybe it's not so scary.. except when you realize they can't see or hear you.
Do you guys suppose it's possible to somehow masturbate without a body?
