Matthew McConaughey

In 2020, ‘Dallas Buyers Club’ actor Matthew McConaughey, 53, released his memoir ‘Greenlights’.

In the book, he reveals how a special wet dream encouraged him to embark on an out-of-the-ordinary adventure.

Part of the memoir reads: “I HAD A WET DREAM. Yes, the involuntary intercourse - hands and fellatio-free nocturnal emission of semen one has while sleeping. Rare but welcomed, these lucid dreams most commonly involve a theme of activity. This wet dream was not common. I was seeing myself floating downstream on my back in the Amazon River, wrapped up by anacondas and pythons, surrounded by crocodiles, piranhas and freshwater sharks. There were African tribesmen lined up shoulder to shoulder on the ridge to the left of me as far as my eyes could see.”

After “eleven seconds” of being “at peace”, the star woke up.

The next thing he did was book a 22-day trip to Peru.
