Clinically Dead Man Crosses Over to the Afterlife, Returns With Special Gifts (David Ditchfield NDE)

The Story
The person was a young man facing hardships in London with low qualifications, manual jobs, drinking, and near eviction. He visited his sister and saw a friend off at a train station. His coat caught in the automatic doors, dragging him under the speeding train wheels, causing severe injuries and hospital admission. During the NDE, he left his body and entered a new realm. He lay on a large granite rock like an altar, covered by a blue sheet, amid pulsating colors. Bright white light grids healed him. An androgynous being stood at his feet. Two women hovered hands over him, sending energy that healed injuries and removed emotional baggage. He saw a waterfall of stars, galaxies, and nebulas, feeling connected to the universe. A tunnel of white light, the source of creation and unconditional love, approached him. He returned to his body. After the NDE, he lost fear of death and believed the soul continues to another realm. He started painting and composing orchestral music without training, channeling the experience to share his story. He learned to live in the present moment.
“knew that it was more than just a light it was like a healing energy a healing”
This NDE features severe physical trauma leading to unconsciousness but contains no veridical perceptions of earthly events, only subjective spiritual visions of lights, beings, and cosmic scenes. Absence of specific, verifiable details, verification attempts, or corroborated claims severely limits evidential strength.
Score reflects verifiable perceptions reported. A low score indicates the experience was primarily spiritual or subjective, not that it didn't occur.
Score reflects transformation as described. Domains scored 0 indicate the topic was not discussed, not that no change occurred.
