Man Dies And Is Shown Our True Connection To Nature During Incredible NDE
What Researchers Found
The Story
A university student in Northern California suffered a near-death experience after a mountain biking accident in the Redwood Forest. Depressed and without a helmet, the student hit a high jump, crashed onto the handlebars, head, and back, and blacked out. The student floated above the Redwood trees in deep peace with heightened senses, seeing dew on needles and hearing distant ocean and birds. They looked down at their dead body on the ground 15 feet away and felt it was not truly them. A knowing asked if they wanted to go further or return. They chose to return, saying 'I don't want to die,' and awoke in pain, unable to move. Fairies circled giggling, and trees rang like singing bowls to heal. They passed out and woke in the hospital with amnesia but no broken bones. After the NDE, the student's empathy deepened intensely for people, animals, plants, and earth. Depression returned stronger at first, requiring healing. Over years, they discovered gifts, appreciated life's preciousness, and began helping others.
“so i knew i knew the patterns i knew how and it was the last jump that i took”
The NDE features a classic out-of-body experience viewing one's own crashed body from above the trees, but lacks specific verifiable details, independent corroboration, or verification attempts. No unique or unpredictable elements are reported, and the account is shared retrospectively without timing details.
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.
