He Died and Went to Heaven! Given The 10 Principles of Life. Near Death Experience (NDE). Afterlife
What Researchers Found
The Story
Vincent Todd Todman, a man in his everyday life, collapsed in a restaurant bathroom and was pronounced dead. Paramedics placed him in a body bag and loaded him into an ambulance. A rookie medic revived him despite rigor mortis setting in, and he entered a three-day coma. During the NDE, Vinnie floated above and watched his resuscitation without knowing it was him. He realized it was his body when he felt his arm strapped down. A guide named Drake appeared, radiating love, and communicated telepathically. Vinnie chose to journey home with Drake, learning 10 principles: authenticity, life's purpose as a school for agency, love all beings, listen to inner voice, use technology responsibly, release prejudice, exercise creation power through thoughts, avoid negative influences, understand evil's role in choices, and recognize all as one in the Creator. They arrived in Heaven, a glowing realm of inner light, healing water, and a love-based university. Drake hugged him, and Vinnie felt his brother's blessing, pulling him back. After waking, Vinnie recalled the experience, wrote 'The Light After Death,' and founded Living God's Light non-profit. He now coaches and leads retreats to help others connect with the Creator, viewing Earth as a school for growth through service and love.
The account features a severe medical crisis with clinical death and specific details of resuscitation observed from an out-of-body perspective, plus awareness of a brother's distant prayer, but lacks detailed explicit verification methods, corroborated precedents, or highly precise unique elements, limiting overall evidential strength.
Score reflects verifiable perceptions reported. A low score indicates the experience was primarily spiritual or subjective, not that it didn't occur.
Was this Evidence Strength score useful?
Was this Experience Depth score useful?
Score reflects transformation as described. Domains scored 0 indicate the topic was not discussed, not that no change occurred.
