Are you a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Can you sleep through a loud thunderstorm or the phone ringing, or does a small sound or movement in your bed from a person or a pet wake you up?

Light sleeper - any noise, or slight movement wakes me...I have also been conditioned to waking when a light is turned on.... HATE IT!!!!
-
It's not unheardof for me to sleep through our house alarm going off. I have also taken several cruises and never been woken up by waves, rough seas, etc. I'm a pretty heavy sleeper. I can, however, wake up and run within 5 seconds (in an emergency) so I think my body is always in a pseudo-ready state.

I'm in between those depends on how tired I am - Light sleeper mainly
-
I am such a light sleeper it is a drag. I fall asleep OK, but if a storm is very loud at all or there is a sound that is very loud from my next door neighbor or the garbage truck outside, I wake up. It irritates me, but I have always been that way. I might invest $50-60. in one of those good "white noise" machines. I have tried ear plugs, but I find them uncomfortable.
-
I'm a super heavy sleeper. Probably because I can only fall sleep if I'm dead tired. None of that forcing myself to sleep stuff. I've tried all my life and its never worked.
-
depends on how loud the phone rings and how close it is to me. i always sleep through thunderstorms, even if im camping in a tent and its storming
-
I hear everything and it makes for a lousy night sleep. It's no wonder I'm not a morning person .
-
Very light. My landlord shut the trunk of his car the other day (out in the parking lot) and it woke me up. Sheesh..
-
you could say i'm a heavy sleeper... but i sleep with headphones on so i effectively drown out most of the noise. you gota do what you gota do when living next to train tracks.
-
very light and once i wake up it takes forever to fall back asleep. Luckily today when i woke up it was on my own not from people walking around or snoring to loud.
-
well i sleep through everything all the time, my alarm clock, my phone, somebody talking or yelling at me, but when my cats starts sneaking around my room or pulling carpet up in the hall outside my room i wake up immediately
-
When I was younger, I could sleep through anything. Now, many small sounds awaken me.
-
im a very heavy sleeper. my wife can talk to me and i will talk back. she has even woke me up while she was habing sex just to prove to me that she can do any thing to me when i sleep
-
Both, In the summer, Iam a really hard sleeper...People usually think iam dead maybe it is the heat. otherwise my allergies sometime alert me if someone was to stand over me while sleeping...otherwise anything could wake me up.
-
Light sleeper pretty much.
-
I am so light a sleeper that a fly walking on the bed wakes me up.
-
I would say medium. I don't wake up with any sound but don't sleep through everything either.
-
I can sleep through everything! I sleep very hard! My family talks to me ever morning and I always talk back but don't remember even talking to them! Alarm clocks don't even wake me up!
-
Usually I'm a light sleeper...the smallest things wake me up...the only time I'm really a heavy sleeper is when I'm extremely exhausted
-
I’m mostly a heavy sleeper but then some light noises will wake me so I’m kind of in between.
-
i am a heavy sleeper , and if a torando came by and went right through my house i wouldn't know!! i have a cat and ounce i'am asleep theres no waking me up!!!
-
I am a very light sleeper. I hear/see/smell everything.
-
Definatley! Sometimes, My family members shake me and i still dont move! They say it looks like im dead without the snore.. LOL! I can remember this one time when I was in middle school, I had a sleepover. I was the first one to fall asleep. There was 5 more girls at my house. They picked me up and took me out into the shed! When I woke up I was terrified! I didnt know what to do or how I got there! My parents werent mad! They still tease me about that :( So is that A heavy sleeper or what???? LOL
-
If I am in the home with another or others ; I could sleep thru an earthquake .... BUT; if I am totally alone ... I'll hear a feather drop and wake up ... so to speak.
-
I'm a light sleeper, but my boyfriend is a ridiculously heavy one. He has four alarms to wake him up, and often this isn't enough so i have to nudge him furiously too! When we're arguing however he becomes a lighter sleeper. When we have children the baby monitor WILL be placed on his side of the bed, if not right by his ear
-
lol there could be a zombie apocalypse happening outside and I'd still be asleep. Yes, I can sleep through the heaviest of metals and the loudest of thunderstorms... yet an alarm clock can easily wake me up.
-
I am mainly a light sleeper..unless i'm really tired, then it would take a little more to wake me.
-
Depending on the night,normally I can sleep so deeply nothing bothers me,others it's just the little things that wake me and I am up for the duration.
