Scientists Finally Try to Explain Near Death Experiences

Near-death experiences have puzzled scientists for decades, but now a new study claims to have cracked the code on what these mysterious experiences really are! Check out today's new video to learn all about what scientists are claiming happens when you nearly die!

Ive had PTSD since I was 6 years old… have had countless out of body experiences, lucid dreams, sleep paralysis and so on….

Based on my experiences, it’s not a brain malfunction. There really is something beyond this physical reality.

There are some very convincing things that this is a spiritual phenomena: 1) People say they have a visual field of 360 degrees. 2) People have been able to accurately recount converations that were happening down the hall, on a different floor, or even down the street. One person found themselves in a car with some family members. The person was able to accurately describe how the family members got a certain fast food. This person was not physically with them, yet was able to accurately tell them what they said and did. 3) Children meet siblings who were still-born or miscarried that they have not been told about. 4) People have been able to accurately describe ancestors they have never met. They can pick them out in a group photo. 5) They are told that it's not yet their time and they have to go back.

It’s the ability of patients to clearly and accurately describe the activities of people out of their immediate visual and hearing environment that intrigues me the most. No consciousness-confusion theory can account for that.

A little fix in the script maybe: defibrillators actually cannot restart a stopped heart. They're used to shock the heart into a regular rhythm when it's in fibrillation. Common misconception :)

My near death experience was traumatic.

I saw myself out of my body.
I confronted my worst anxieties and fears.
I felt myself grounding my soul when it was being plucked out.
I fought it off.
My interpretation is that there is a collective consciousness.
I felt myself reaching for those I love.
Once I came out of a coma, I found a complete lack of beauty in this world.
My perception is altered.

3 years ago I had a near death experience. After my heart stopped for 3 minutes I had a out of body experience. Saw every body in the room from above. Hearing them say goodbye and telling me they loved me I drifted away. It changed my life for ever in a very good way!

A friend of mine had an NDE and during his experience, he saw and talked to a friend from his childhood, a friend he had all but forgotten. He later did some research trying to find this childhood friend, only to find that he, indeed, had died decades ago.

My near death experience was very different then what was in this video and other ppl's accounts I've heard.
I was declared clinically dead for 15mins(after CPR and defibrillator etc)after hemorrhaging during childbirth.
I felt a sense a pure peace, even a sense of happiness like I was home and absolutely no fear or pain, it was unlike anything I've ever felt. I didn't see any type of bright light, tunnel of light or extreme darkness. Things were dim but nothing like I had heard ppl saw before it happened to me.
Then I remembered I hadn't held my newborn son yet and I couldn't die before I held my baby. I just couldn't let go of that thought no matter how peaceful and pain free I was feeling. The next thing I remember was the worst pain I've ever felt in my entire life, like my soul was being slammed back into my body at Mac5. Followed by the sound of the machines, my mother sobbing, and doctors talking loudly. The doctors and nurses were shocked(obviously)and despite their best efforts couldn't explain how I came back after 20min of them doing CPR, defibrillator, etc and 15min after that with no oxygen and make a full recovery.
I'm just grateful to the Gods I did come back so I could not only hold my son but watch him grow up.
*** Update: 10/24
I'm adding this because alot of comments take issue with the fact I say "Gods" and because I am not a Christian and in no way claim to be one.
My comment is about my near death experience, NOT my religion. Ppl from all faiths have had near death experiences.
I am very happy with my religious choices and would not dare to chose for anyone other then myself.
I sincerely hope that everyone finds a religion/belief that makes them happy, brings them comfort in the worst times, and gives them something to help make sense of this crazy world. I respect all religions and beliefs. Tolerance goes a long way in life. I will not be addressing any further comments on my religion.***

When I was 9, I drowned in the river and was stuck underneath a log. I can remember panic and just nothing. Then I was with my dead grandpa, we were fishing again like we always did, then he told me "You go back now." Then I woke up coughing, my father had found me and pulled me to the bank.
My time with my grandpa felt so real, like compared to this, now, this is the dream.
I was under that log for a good 15 minutes.

So basically, scientists still can't explain near death experiences. Got it.

[lolololololutrythcfy]

it annoys me that scientists become stubborn to something beyond they can completely understand that they dismiss it in every way possible

[steveadams]

Been dead twice. Actually a wonderful experience. I no longer fear death.

[tuppydaboss]

I would like them explain my now 9 year old son flatlining a few years back and meeting his sister that was still born and my uncle whom he had never met. And describe what my daughter looked like when he never saw her for one second.

I have had a NDE in 2006 when I died in a tornado. On April 7, 2006 I died 7x at one hospital and at least 3x when they moved me down to Vanderbilt.
My NDE was very positive. I was told it wasn’t my time. On my way to Heaven I asked about my boys and was told me boys were fine.

[AggroChip]

I feel this is jumping too far ahead. Science hasn't even managed to explain consciousness yet, so I don't think the larger-than-life experiences of NDEs can really be touched on yet, at not least from a materialist perspective.
There is still debate within science whether consciousness exists after death or not, so trying to explain NDE's in the case of physical brain activity is assuming that debate has already been decided, which is certainly hasn't yet.

Regardless, still a great topic for the scientific community to look into. I feel it's been neglected for so long.

The real question is, why is the infographic show not yet at 100M subs?

[calebstearns]

As someone who has had a near death experience I really want to know more. During mine I had a extremely bright flash of light, and felt like I was trapped in my body unable to move any part of my body.

[cooking_innovations]

I had a near death experience and its similar to a dream, but the problem with dreaming is that they are vivid and random while a near death experience is very clear and somewhat consistent. What i think happens is all related to the mind and there is nothing physical about it. So therefore the mind and body are two separate entities
