I can't say I've dreamed anything like what he described, but I've had some creepy Deja vu dreams some times. The most vivid was once I dreampt of a flash of light, and myself looking up at the sky with a metal bar over my head and I heard someone yelling "[Name, Name], Is he Okay?"
Several years later I fell after slipping on some wet wood and someone whom I hadn't yet met at the time of the dream yelled to his friend, "Ben, Ben, is he Okay?"... And the same metal bar was above me; the flash of light came from the mild concussion and/or me seeing the bright sky after having my eyes closed.
