    Yes, I have actually died. When I was nine years old. I was swimming at the local pool and the chlorine tank hada slow leak in it then on "the" day I jumped off the high dive and as I swam up to the ladder the tanks exploded and pure chlorine came gushing out of the nearest vent which was the one I was swimming up to. It exploded in my face and It rushed in my system and I had to be flown by emergency helicopter and all my body was rejecting everything they were doing and they tried to get me to throw up and that was the last thing I remembered til I woke the next morning to see my family just cheering and acting like I died or something. Oh wait, to come to find out I actually had to revived many times and they finally shocked me back to life. Here I am 20 years later happy to be alive.

    I've had moments in my sleep which I feel are near-death experiences, as I am sure that I've come out of my own body, but I don't really recall a moment where I've been in an accident and nearly died.

    I do think we all come close to death all the time without realizing it.

    A few times.

    1) Slipped down mountain cliff while backpacking

    2) Rollar coaster almost derailed

    3) Almost fell 50 feet to the ground while rock climbing at Joshua Tree

    4) Almost swept over 100 foot waterfall

    5) Cancer (not near death, but it sucks)

    I almost drowned as a kid, I was about 12 and was playing by myself in a swimming pool. I was diving into the pool. I tried to dive through a flotation ring and got stuck at my waist with my face in the water. Still freaks me out to think about it.

    There there were a couple motorcycle accidents where I was run off the road by careless drivers. Now I have loud pipe on my bike so I can be heard.

    Yes... I've had a few. I had an emergency c-section, and they started to do the surgery at the same time as they were giving me the pain meds, so it was very painful, and my last thought before I went under was Great, They killed me. It took a total of 16 minutes for them to get me from my room to the OR and have my daughter out. I've also had meningitis, and another emergency surgery to have my gallbladder removed when it became infected.

    YES!!! I had surgery for cancer (woman area) and I bleed for like a week after and the doc's said that was normal. one day I went to the bathroom and then woke up in the hospital. Before I passed out I felt lik eI was under water. Like at a beach with the waves just rolling in on top of you. As I "sank" deeper the light from the sky grew brighter and brighter. I heard the voice of my grandmother (I never saw anyone) And after I woke up, I was told that I had to be shocked back..... Strange.
