Yeah I've been on that same website. To be honest I totally missed the point on Shutter Island. I just assumed he was nuts. But yeah, he definitely volunteered himself up.










Still think Cobb is in a dream, within a dream, within a dream, within a dream, within a dream.

Basically, it works because he is soooo far deep into his dream state and because the rate of which his brain perceives time increases exponentially... By the time he gets his 'kick' back in the real world (from the mini van dunking in the river) he would have been existing in double limbo for over 50 years.

And if the kick you get manifests in your dream state (water pouring through widows etc...) Then he'll probably die a really old man on a tragic boating accident. Or lung disease.
