Man Died For 30 Minutes And Was Connected To 7 Light Beings - Near Death Experience | Afterlife
What Researchers Found
The Story
Rodney Reeder was a longshoreman working near Seattle in July 2017. He fell 25 feet from a ladder when two barges collided, striking his face on steel and causing blunt force trauma. Coworkers thought he was dead for about 30 minutes. During the NDE, he popped out of his body and entered a comforting void of darkness. A light appeared, leading him to a gravel path on a mountain ledge overlooking a beautiful valley with thousands of beings, a golden portal, and jeweled halls. He glided to a lush field where grass recharged him with liquid love. Seven bright light beings emerged from silver mist and surrounded him. They placed him in a rainbow vortex and sent him back. Pain returned as he slammed into his body. After the NDE, Rodney woke up to shocked coworkers. He had a broken face, brain bleed, and other injuries but felt connected to the other side's love, which reduced his pain needs. He now embraces spiritual connections, encounters like with Saint Germain, and shares his story to help others open to divine presence.
