I tend to have the dream I miss a step when I am falling alseep and my whole body jumps, but I don’t dream about falling.
I am not an expert on dreams, but a researcher was interviewed about this here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/13/dreams-about-falling_n_891626.html
It seems one reason people dream of falling is because of the changes in blood pressure, heart rate etc. that occur when we fall asleep, and this is transformed into a dream of falling.
The more psychological explanation is that it’s a symbol for feeling out of control in our life.
