Ever since the dawn of mankind, people have been trying to answer the question of the existence of life after death. Descriptions that an afterlife actually exists can be found not only in various religions, but also in eyewitness accounts.
Is there life after death - Moritz Roolings
People have been arguing about whether there is an afterlife for a long time. Inveterate skeptics are sure that the soul does not exist, and after death there is nothing.

However, most believers still believe that the afterlife does exist. Moritz Roolings, a famous cardiologist and professor at the University of Tennessee, tried to collect proof of this. Probably many people know him from the book "Beyond the Threshold of Death". It contains a lot of facts describing the lives of patients who have experienced clinical death.
One of the stories in this book tells of a strange event during the resuscitation of a person in a state of clinical death. During the massage, which was supposed to make the heart work, the patient regained consciousness for a short time and began to beg the doctor not to stop.
The man said in horror that he was in hell and as soon as they stopped doing the massage, he again finds himself in this terrible place. Roolings writes that when the patient finally regained consciousness, he told what unthinkable torment he experienced. The patient expressed his readiness to transfer anything in this life, just not to return to such a place.

From this incident, Roolings began to record the stories that resuscitated patients told him. According to the Roolings' testimony, about half of those who have suffered clinical death, tell that they were in a charming place from which you do not want to leave. Therefore, they returned to our world very reluctantly.
However, the other half insisted that the world contemplated into nothingness was filled with monsters and torment. Therefore, they had no desire to return there.
But for real skeptics, such stories are not an affirmative answer to the question - is there life after death. Most of them believe that each individual subconsciously builds his own vision of the afterlife, and during clinical death, the brain gives a picture of what it was prepared for.
Is life after death possible - stories from the Russian press
In the Russian press, you can find information about people who have suffered clinical death. The story of Galina Lagoda was often mentioned in newspapers. The woman got into a terrible accident. When she was brought to the clinic, she had brain damage, ruptured kidneys, lungs, multiple fractures, her heart stopped beating, and her blood pressure was at zero.
The patient claims that at first she saw only darkness, space. After that, I found myself on the site, which was flooded with amazing light. Before her stood a man in shining white robes. However, the woman could not distinguish his face.
The man asked why the woman came here. To which he received the answer that she was very tired. But she was not left in this world and was sent back, explaining that she still has a lot of unfinished business.
Surprisingly, when she woke up, Galina immediately asked her doctor about abdominal pains that had bothered him for a long time. Realizing that having returned to "our world" she became the owner of an amazing gift, Galina decided to help people (she can "human ailments and heal them).
Yuri Burkov's wife told another amazing case. She says that after one accident, her husband injured his back and received a serious head injury. After Yuri's heart stopped beating, he was in a coma for a long period of time.
While her husband was in the clinic, the woman lost her keys. When the husband woke up, he first of all asked if she had found them. The wife was very amazed, but without waiting for an answer, Yuri said that you need to look for the loss under the stairs.
A few years later, Yuri admitted that while he was unconscious, he was near her, he saw every step and heard every word. The man also visited a place where he was able to meet with his deceased relatives and friends.
What the afterlife is like - Paradise
The real existence of the afterlife, says the famous actress Sharon Stone. On May 27, 2004, on The Oprah Winfrey Show, a woman shared her story. Stone assures that after she had an MRI, she was unconscious for some time and saw a room that was flooded with white light.

The actress assures that her condition was like fainting. This feeling differs only in that it is very difficult to recover. At that moment, she saw all the deceased relatives and friends.
Perhaps this confirms the fact that souls meet after death with those with whom they were familiar during life. The actress assures that there she experienced grace, a feeling of joy, love and happiness - this was definitely Paradise.
In various sources (magazines, interviews, books written by eyewitnesses), we managed to find interesting stories that have received publicity throughout the world. For example, Betty Maltz assured that Paradise exists.
The woman talks about the amazing area, very beautiful green hills, rosaceous trees and bushes. Although the sun was not visible in the sky, all around was bathed in bright light.
The woman was followed by an angel in the form of a tall youth in long white robes. Beautiful music was heard from all sides, and a silver palace towered before them. The golden street was visible outside the palace gates.
The woman felt that Jesus himself was standing there, inviting her to come in. However, it seemed to Betty that she felt her father's prayers and returned back to her body.
Journey to Hell - facts, stories, real cases
Not all eyewitness accounts describe a happy life after death. For example, 15 year old Jennifer Perez claims to have seen Hell.
The first thing that caught the girl's eye was a very long and high snow-white wall. There was a door in the center of it, but it was locked. Nearby was another black door, which was ajar.
Suddenly an angel appeared nearby, which he took the girl by the hand and led to the 2nd door, which was scary to look at. Jennifer says that she tried to escape, resisted, but it did not help. Once on the other side of the wall, she saw darkness. And suddenly the girl began to fall down very quickly.
When she landed, she felt the heat that enveloped from all sides. Around were the souls of people who were tormented by devils. Seeing all these unfortunates in agony, Jennifer stretched out her hands to the angel, who turned out to be Gabriel and prayed, asked for water, since she was dying of thirst. After that, Gabriel said that she was given another chance, and the girl woke up in her body.
Another description of hell is found in the story of Bill Wyss. The man also talks about the heat that envelops this place. In addition, a person begins to experience terrible weakness, powerlessness. Bill, at first did not even understand where he was, but then he saw four demons nearby.
The air was filled with the smell of sulfur and burning flesh, huge monsters approached the man and began to tear his body apart. At the same time, there was no blood, but with every touch he felt a terrible pain. Bill sensed that the demons hated God and all his creatures.
The man says that he was terribly thirsty, but there was not a single soul around, no one could even give him a little water. Fortunately, this nightmare soon ended, and the man returned to life. However, he will never forget this hellish journey.
So, is life after death possible, or is everything that eyewitnesses tell just a game of their imagination? Unfortunately, at the moment it is definitely impossible to answer this question. Therefore, only at the end of life, each person himself will check whether there is an afterlife or not.
