A near death experience has been known to provoke all kinds of visions and proclamations about what might be "on the other side."
There are two near death experience stories that are told the most often. The first type is the out of body experience where after being close to death the individual reports flying or traveling through a dark tunnel towards a bright light. Usually, these people claim that they can see themselves rising, as a phantom shape from their physical body and then they have the sensation that they are floating across the ceiling. In many near death experience stories, people have related seeing doctors working on them, hearing conversations and seeing there loved ones weeping. Many people who have had heart attacks also claim to see things like heart monitor machines beeping and paddles being applied and then feel their ethereal selves being drawn back into their bodies after they have been revived.
Yet another experience that is very common is seeing the near death experience light. People who have died and come back often claim to be traveling through a dark tunnel. At the end of this tunnel is a light that beckons them. Sometimes, the near death experience light is not at the end of a tunnel but high above the person's head or in the distance in space. In almost all of these types of stories, the person appears to be beckoned by the light. It is also common for the dying person to hear a voice coming from the light. In some cases, the dying person even sees the faces of loved ones who have become deceased in the light. These faces may speak and gesture towards the loved one to come join them.
Some people dismiss these reportings as fantasies. Neurologists claim these types of experiences are the products of neurons discharging and brain chemicals changing as a person begins to experience the dying process. However, so many people have the same types of visions after a near death experience that they are becoming harder to dismiss.
Near death experiences have been around for centuries. Not all accounts of visiting the other side have been so positive. Some people who have gone over talk of a near death experience hell where they experience a great deal of horror or fear while dying. This puts a fear of what is on the other side with them for the rest of their lives.
Yet another aspect of this that is often talked about is the near death suicide hell. Often this is a story of redemption. A depressed individual attempts suicide and then nearly dies. While having his or her stomach pumped or heart revived they often say that they travel to a place that resembles the hell described throughout time by religious figures. However many of these reports are often on Christian websites to deter people from committing suicide.
