The experiencer was a suburban kid who had a bad fall while skiing, which caused a spinal fracture and led to a near-death experience (NDE). During the NDE, he observed his body on the ski slopes and felt a sense of peace. He moved away from his body and saw a light, which he recognized as powerful. He experienced a life review, reflecting on how his actions affected others. He pleaded not to die, realizing he had more to accomplish in life. He received a message to make something of his life before returning to his body.
