Pilot Dies, Sees Future, Beings, & Says I am not Freaking You Out
What Researchers Found
The Story
Tony was a 24-year-old naval air crew engineer stationed in Hawaii in 1982. The NDE started during a military flight exercise when his plane had an engine failure and crashed on landing, nearly hitting a fire truck. During the crash, Tony left his body and viewed the scene from outside. He saw the plane swerve and the firefighter in terror. Time slowed, and he became every piece of debris, experiencing 360-degree vision and a sense of sublime perfection in the chaos. That night, after praying for a miracle, Tony shifted to a black void and encountered a golden white light. He felt infinite unconditional love from his creator, overwhelming joy, bliss, and a cosmic welcome home. An urge to merge pulled him toward the light, which then appeared in his bedroom before fading. After the NDE, Tony recognized everything as a miracle. He changed his thinking to positive thoughts and unconditional love, which restored his health. He now teaches loving God by loving others and caring for the planet to create heaven on Earth.
