Near death experiences: What really happens when you die?

Richard Hammond recently shared a video of his experience of being in a coma.

So what was happening to Richard Hammond? Dr Sam Parnia is Associate Professor of Critical Care Medicine and Director of Critical Care and Resuscitation Research at NYU School of Medicine.

He explained to me it’s likely Richard Hammond was experiencing a kind of dream state. I asked Dr Parnia if it was possible that Richard Hammond’s wife communicating with him helped wake him up from his coma…

I can’t believe people don’t talk about NDEs more often.
When I first learned about them it completely transformed the way I look at the world.
Thanks for picking this topic.

So fascinating, I love that people like Sam exist and are looking to find answers to our biggest question.

[shawnstatzer]

My Near-Death Experience changed the course of my life. Thanks for the interesting video.

Are we humans experiencing life, or are we life experiencing being human?

[LuisHernandez-flpc]

As an NDEr myself I thank this Dr for his open mind
I’ve been watching him for a while and he truly wants to understand this
Of course on less you have had an NDE like me and others you never understand what is like
But I wish him well on his path

When my mother got very sick she would talk to her siblings who had passed away. There were 2 brothers she had not spoken to. One in New Mexico, who had disappeared over and over again and by this time had probably passed away. However, the baby brother could not be found, even though we knew he was in the area. His oldest son sounds like his dad. When she heard his voice, she visibly calmed down and passed away a few days later.

Another time like this happened with my stepson, who’s mother and I were close, was in the hospital dying from lupus and he didn’t want to see her. I told him he needed to tell his mom goodbye or he might regret it later. Well when we got to her room and as soon as he spoke she smiled. She died the next day. Both my mom and my stepson’s mom needed to hear their loved one voice so they could go with peace in their hearts.

This would explain my dream of other lives / dimensions and or future events. Hearing you say like a radio is how I tried explaining it before.

There is so much that could be said, about this topic; I am sure many people have had experiences that go beyond the every day explanation, that most of our doctors tell us. Let me share one of mine. When I was a boy, I didn't like hockey and my father was a big hockey fan... this caused a bit of a problem for us and it made me dislike hockey even more, since I felt like my father wasn't proud of me, because I didn't like his favourite sport. So, when I got married, I told my wife, we would get along fine as long as we never discussed hockey. She said, that was fine, as she didn't care for it, either. Why did I share this? Here is why.... When our first child was born (a girl) she never saw a hockey game on tv. No one ever baby sat her; I was a very over protective parent, and since I was molested as a boy by our school janitor, when I was 5/6, I became overly cautious. One day, when my daughter was 3 years old, she started asking me a question. She wanted to know where her son was. I thought she was playing, at first, but then it became apparent that she was serious. I asked her what her son looked like, and she gave me a very detail picture, of a slim man with curly red hair (she described it as orange) who wore a brown leather coat and drove a white car. She went on to tell me that her son used to pick her up and take her to the hockey games (she had never seen a hockey; not one in person nor on tv). Puzzled, I asked her, "When did he do that?" thinking she might say, "Oh, the other day." but she didn't. She responded by saying, "You know, daddy, when I was an old lady." I should add, I didn't, at the time, even believe in reincarnation. Eventually, I did send this story into a writer who did publish it.... as he felt it had the sound of authenticity. Consciousness is a very fascinating thing.

I worked with Sam. Amazing doctor. 🙏☺️

[jumperpence]

Fascinating, really deserves more time. Any links appreciated.

[freyatilly]

This is so interesting. So revealing. Fascinating stuff.

[danielletadros]

I love him. He's so smart and open minded. He knows the truth about consciousness but is careful in what he says.

Been there, done that. I would recommend everyone to experience death. Most amazing minute and half. Found myself in the ER. Problems breathing. Found out two weeks later that one doctor hit me twice with a defib machine, gave up on me and proceeded to filll out the hospital's documents forthe issusnce of a death certificate.Another doctor used the defib machine 7 more times and "brought" me back, I understand now.

I work in IT and have worked around something called "Dumb Terminals" that bank tellers might use. The terminals are very basic and mainly transmit data back and forth from a server without processing anything. It strikes me as possible that the human body is a bit of a dumb terminal where part of your psyche gets stored up in the cloud somewhere. You die, then you wake up in the cloud or a different dumb terminal. The purpose of your life on earth seems to be to teach something, perhaps how to love and trust others in a way that only a mortal human being can do. I remember watching one video about a near death experience and it mentioned something about God saying that he had problems with the Angels because they never lived a mortal life. So perhaps we are here on earth to get some training to be an angel of sorts one day and be able to grasp it all without losing our sanity.

Thank you. Could you please upload the whole intervew?

Dr Sam is a great man I had ever known.

We are the universe experiencing itself, LITERALLY. When we die the universe will continue to experience itself. The most enlightening philosopher I've ever listened to is #AlanWatts

My man died 30.11.23 at 47. It feels as if half of me was ripped of the flesh im 36, but he was my evirything. I rather die then a life without him. Henrik❤Malin 🔥🔥
