Based on more than 16,000 responses to a survey conducted by William Buhlman, author and seriously experienced OBE'er.
Average Age of First Out-of-Body Experience
The average age group is 4-12 years old. This is often a repeated experience that declines during the early teen-age years.

Experiences Reported per Person
1 - 36%
2-5 - 41%

I probably fall into the upper end of that 3% catagory myself.
William just posted the most fascinating newsletter to his yahoo group. When its posted somewhere publicly I will post a link to it here on In Repose.
In this April 2009 article he talks about a particular astral plane he has visited so many times where many discarnate spirits reside. Basically its a place where people who have died, but who have not moved on spiritually, and who create with others, a virtual replication of physical earth, complete with all of our own 3D earthly limitations.
The only thing sadder are those entities who think nothing at all exists beyond death, as that is exactly the reality they create for themselves!

Hey there,
I write to let you know that we-(I'm Seeka)- share the same sad feeling towards those entities who don't think beyond death.
Lovely to see it in numbers, which links to my concept of the The Invisible 3rd Element....
(Forming of Life,before birth)->(Life)->(After Life,the invisible one)
People tend to get attached to this life or just too involved with making this life as they dream, meaning that they become successful in this life. The funny part is, they know that death is coming soon-sooner than they think-, yet they try to run away from it. Well, once they find a way to cheat death, I'd really love to know how, and please, at the same time I don't wanna hear them say "Cloning".
Come to think about it, that's still called "Cheating" and simply breaking the Cycle of Life, and if the cycle is broken, where do we go?
