The Near Death Experience Research Foundation (NDERF) has been collecting people’s experiences of what it is like to be brought back from being clinically dead, and one person’s story suggests heaven is real.
A person by the username George J says that when they were a child, they were hit by a car when they were younger.
Paramedics found George dead where they had to resuscitate him.
George says he remember what being dead feels like and claims he made it to Heaven but was sent back to Earth.
Writing on the website, George J says: “I saw paramedics from above assess me. They were panicking because they thought I was deceased.

“From above I saw them quickly cut me out of my coat. My spirit or consciousness then departed and travelled to ‘heaven’ or a place where a being told me ‘It’s not your time yet, you have to go back and do something important’.
“I begrudgingly returned while in the ambulance and felt a whole body pain like I’ve never felt before.
“I was screaming and crying when the ambulance turned the corner into the emergency room driveway.”
However, some researchers state this is a normal phenomenon and not necessarily a sign that heaven is real.
Dr Sam Parnia, director of critical care and resuscitation research at NYU Langone School of Medicine in New York City, told a recent Oz Talk: “People describe a sensation of a bright, warm, welcoming light that draws people towards it.
“They describe a sensation of experiencing their deceased relatives, almost as if they have come to welcome them. They often say that they didn’t want to come back (to life) in many cases, it is so comfortable and it is like a magnet that draws them that they don’t want to come back.
“A lot of people describe a sensation of separating from themselves and watching doctors and nurses working on them.
“They can hear things and record all conversations that are going on around them.”
Dr Parnia says there are scientific explanations for these reaction, and says seeing people is not evidence of the afterlife, but more likely the brain just scanning itself as a survival technique.
He said thanks to modern technology and science “death does not have to be limited to philosophy and religion, but it can be explored through science.”
