1st person vs, 3rd person view
I've been scanning through my memory 'still photos' (for the most part, I lack episodic videos), and I've noticed that almost every memory is in the third person / 'floating camera' view. The exceptions are moments that are very unique, thrilling, or terrifying.
I found a suicide jumper under a bridge on the way to work one day. This memory is in 1st person. The memories are 'still captures' though, no video.
I was nearly in a horrific car accident. We hit black ice on the on ramp, spun around 180 degrees, and hit the median. I recall seeing thru my own eyes as we approached the barrier.
As a high school kid, I walked across a metal pipe balance beam in a local park. The drop was about 15 - 20 feet down to stone. I have a 'still image' of the pipe as seen thru my eyes. 1st person.
