[edit] Tintin's Dream Phenomenon
On the fifth page, after finding out about Chang's death, Tintin then weeps for him and says that Chang is not dead. Tintin then says the dream he had was no ordinary dream. He said it was a sort of premonition...telepathy...something like that. I have three questions. First, Does anyone know the real name of this phenomenon? Second, Why wasn't its real name used in the book instead? Third, has this phenomenon ever occured in real life?
- I don't know whether it has a definite name, but it's generally referred to as dream telepathy.
- I presume the real name wasn't used to make it appear more natural - Tintin didn't know anything about the phenomena, and he was overcome with grief at the presumed death of his friend. He says (translated from the original French) : "... it wasn't an ordinary dream ... It was ... how can I put it? ... a preminatory dream ... or telepathic ... I don't know."
- Yes, many times in experiments and in day-to-day life; try searching for dream telepathy, paranormal dreams or preminatory dreams.

- Thanks for your answer.
>>The story is unlike any previous Tintin books, before or since: there are no enemies and only a small number of characters.>>
This is not quite true. The same could be said of Red Rackham's Treasure, though it's unusual definitely.

This also happens in Flight 714 when Tintin fears Snowy is lost. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.202.247.105 (talk) 06:02, 5 May 2007 (UTC).
