You know those dreams where your falling off a building, and right befor you hit the ground, you wake up, and as you wake up, your kind of rolling towards the end of your bed? I heard that if you don't wake up befor you hit the ground that you actually die, is this true?

Not unless you actually fall out of bed onto sharp knives!
The answer is NO NO NO.
Falling dreams can have a few meanings, one is that it is the feeling you get when you incarnate, or the feeling when you go back into your body just before you wake up. It's one of those experiences that at first is not pleasant, like falling, and so we don't like to re-experience them. I wonder if that's why so many people are scared of heights, it's not the heights is the feeling of faling.
If you can master the falling you will be a master astral traveller - ie someone who has consciousness when sleeping and knows how to navigate while flying around, masters coming in and out of the physical body.
Push the experience and see what happens.

Nope, tried it once. I dreamed I had fallen off a cliff and was falling swiftly towards the ground. There was a railroad track running along the base of the cliff and as I was falling and thinking I would die when I hit the tracks, instead of forcing myself to wake up, decided that I would let myself hit the ground. At the last instant before I would have hit the ground and smushed myself all over the railroad tracks, I landed lightly on my feet, between the rails, on the wooden railroad ties.

No. I once dreamed that I opened a door and walked into a building where I was immediately blown to pieces by a bomb. When I woke up, I was still alive.

Yes. The reason why is that, your brain is actually always awoke, and if it thinks that you just died than to the brain it's true
