Experience description: 

On the night of Feb. 3 2002 I had a very strange dream (this story is not a dream as you will see later on).

I saw myself standing in an open I guess best words are a dead desert, it was blackish grey sky the ground was like hard dry cracked sand. In front of me was three hooded spirits with a well like thing in front of it. It was long 4-5 feet in height with mercury type water in it. Though I never saw any faces or hands these spirits were asking me if I wanted to stay or go back. I honestly at this point can't explain it but I knew I wasn't dreaming it felt so real it was fearful. I said I wanted to go back. Then I was shown the well with a terrible life ahead of me if I go back. I remember saying no I want to go back my kids need a father to grow up. The water froze and this incredible light appeared it felt so bright it was overwhelming though I couldn't see with my eyes it felt as though I was seeing an image of Christ. He told me he will honor my request. I woke up feeling very strange yet alive and afraid even though I believed or wanted to believe it was just a dream.

Later that morning I went to work had my calls as usual nothing strange didn't even think of my dream. Later that afternoon, I get a string call nothing to what I'm doing that day very easy call (you would wish everyday you had calls this easy), but out of the area I was working in. Even though I didn't want the call, I still did it as the company claimed they had nobody else. What I didn't know at the time is that the call was refused by another tech as it was to dangerous.

When I got there it didn't seem like a big deal except for the fact that it was 30 feet in the air, but with a ladder it's not a big deal, I've done lots of calls like these. Oh well, I put my ladder up made sure it was safe went up, forgot something so I had to go back down. As I started to head down the ladder kicked out and I started to fall 30 feet with a hundred pound ladder.

As I was falling there was silence, no wind.  It wasn't cold.  There was the light there with me and I looked down and saw myself after I heard the crack of the ladder. There I saw myself on the ground. I was 30 feet in the air with this powerful light. Instead of snow I saw the light ahead of me with beautiful warmth. The light that was with me let me got the light.  as I was in there I felt a pause where now I was with the light of Christ and watched myself as though I was traveling back in time where I saw myself in bed, the void, and the accident. It was weird because it felt like I was at all places at the same time. As I saw everything I felt the light telling me that he will honor my request to go back. I said I will go back even though I feel like I wish to stay I must go back.

As I descended back to my body something was said to me, all I remember is saying "I promise." When I woke up there was a lady there a whole bunch of people standing over me.  911 calls were placed stating that I had died.  The first thing that I heard was the lady that was on top of me crying became shocked that I woke up and said, "you must have done good things for people and God let you live." She then yelled to her husband who came over and said "you were dead, oh my god your were dead, god let you live!" After that, police, ambulance, and firemen, all showed up and shocked to see me alive with a bump on my head the size of a golf ball. Needless to say, I was rushed to hospital.
