Jane Falls 1,000' Base Jumping - NDE Follows
6d ago00:42:22Tap to summarizeIn this gripping episode of Round Trip Death, host Eric Bennett sits down with Jane Osborne, a former outdoor pursuits instructor from Derbyshire, England, to unpack a base jumping accident that killed her. What began as a routine flight to capture aerial photography turned catastrophic when her emergency parachute malfunctioned and deployed alongside her main chute at 1,500 feet, sending her plummeting and slamming into the rocky terrain of Kat's Tor. ___________________Birch Natural MattressesPodcast Listeners Receive 27% OFFBirchLiving.com/Roundtrip____________________Jane recounts the harrowing physical toll in visceral detail — broken bones throughout her body, a crushed spine, and a neck broken in two places — along with a devastating prognosis from doctors that she would never walk again. It's a survival story almost too intense to believe, setting the stage for the extraordinary NDE experience that followed.What elevates this conversation beyond a simple accident story is Jane's account of her Near Death Experience while lying in her hospital bed, feeling trapped in what she calls a "body coffin." After crying out for help, she describes floating above her own body, hearing an authoritative voice tell her she needed to go back and heal others — a message that clashed with her law career ambitions and skeptical, fact-driven mindset. Her NDE didn't end there; she describes bizarre out-of-body travels, heightened senses, and a years-long recovery that led her into past-life regression and energy healing work. Listeners fascinated by NDE accounts, unexplained phenomena, and the intersection of trauma and spiritual awakening will find Jane's raw, unfiltered storytelling — paired with her later work helping others uncover the root causes of their own physical and emotional struggles — a genuinely compelling listen.Video Version of This EpisodeRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/Jane: https://jane-osborne.com/

Bubba's NDE: Dies From Anesthesia - Meets Stepfather
2w ago00:31:03Tap to summarizeHeavenly Basketball Game With Stepdad!What really happens in the moments after your heart stops? This episode of Round Trip Death brings together two guests with strikingly different connections to the same profound mystery: the near death experience.________________________Get 15% off OneSkin with code ROUNDTRIPat https://www.oneskin.co/ROUNDTRIP#oneskinpod #sponsored__________________________Host Eric sits down with Makai Calles — a journalist turned filmmaker who himself had a childhood NDE after a venomous scorpion sting in Mexico — and Bubba Herrick, a former college baseball pitcher whose routine elbow surgery turned into a full-blown clinical death. Makai wrote and hosted the new documentary Final Hours, and his own near-death experience as a seven-year-old set him on a lifelong path of investigating others' stories, including Bubba's.Bubba's account is the heart of this episode — and it's a wild one. After an allergic reaction to anesthesia stopped his heart on the operating table, he describes floating above his own body, undergoing an intense 360-degree life review filled with guilt and unexpected anger at himself, and then being pulled into a breathtaking realm of pure light. There, his deceased stepfather appears — not with words, but with a basketball, recreating a childhood memory in real time. Their telepathic "game" becomes the vehicle for a message about purpose, responsibility, and reluctant return.The conversation digs into why so many NDE experiencers report depression and grief after coming back, how life priorities shift dramatically post-experience (career changes, fading fears, even divorce), and why guilt-driven life reviews like Bubba's are actually the exception rather than the rule. Equal parts eerie, emotional, and hopeful, this episode asks the big question the show is built around: if these accounts are real, what do they tell us about fear, death, and how we're meant to live right now?VIDEO VERSIONRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/Makai's Film "Final Hours": https://www.theepochtimes.com/epochtv/final-hours-is-death-really-the-end-6027582

Claudia's NDE Followed Death In Childbirth
3w ago00:44:11Tap to summarizeShe died for 45 minutes... and saw nothing but darkness. So why did it feel like Heaven?In this episode, Claudia Edge recounts the most harrowing night of her life — bleeding out from a placental rupture while giving birth to her fifth child, as doctors raced to save her baby while her own heart stopped. What followed wasn't the typical tunnel-of-light NDE. Instead, Claudia floated through the hospital watching her own resuscitation, then crossed into an infinite, pitch-black space she insists wasn't a void — it was absolute love, a feeling so complete she calls it being "swaddled" by the universe. No tunnel, no relatives waiting for her — just overwhelming peace, until a nurse's voice pulled her back.Claudia also shares things she's never discussed publicly: encounters with benevolent extraterrestrials, ongoing afterlife communication with her late sister and mother, "pre-life planning" of our hardest struggles, and an intimate vision of Jesus as a playful big brother rather than a figure to worship. Skeptic or seeker, this is one of the most unconventional NDE stories we've featured — and barely scratches the surface of her new book.VIDEO VERSIONRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/https://claudiaedge.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Dying-SPIRIT-SCHOOL-Curriculum-Teachers/dp/0999463551/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3DL6RK10WBYN2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.HSVYyuBr1b-GJo0Ckg4qfO1qdQypHIFWHemFAFXg8rjGjHj071QN20LucGBJIEps.uUdTEwKLHIB-mwrhUYIYZ5TiO9Qfaf44LvaO43DpbiY&dib_tag=se&keywords=dying%2Bto%2Bgo%2Bto%2Bspirit%2Bschool&qid=1782757102&sprefix=dying%2Bto%2Bgo%2Bto%2Bspirit%2Bschool%2Caps%2C276&sr=8-1#

Scarlett Met Her Husband "On the Other Side" In a SNDE (Shared Near Death Experience)
4w ago00:55:07Tap to summarizeAt age four, Scarlett Heinbuch drowned in a pool—and watched her own body sink while her spirit hovered nearby in a state of overwhelming love. This NDE (Near Death Experience) changed her, and the trajectory of her life.________________________Get 15% off OneSkin with code ROUNDTRIPat https://www.oneskin.co/ROUNDTRIP#oneskinpod #sponsored__________________________During her NDE Experience, she chose to come back for her mother's sake, but the door between worlds never fully closed, leaving her with a lifetime of precognitive dreams, remote viewing, and unexplained phenomena she spent decades researching just to feel sane.Then in 2005, a stranger asked her to pray over her dying son, David, who was comatose with destroyed kidneys and a grim prognosis. Scarlett experienced a shared near-death experience (SNDE) with him—recognizing his soul in a field of light—then later saw towering blue "healing beings" performing what looked like a holographic kidney transplant at his bedside. David's kidneys, supposedly damaged beyond repair, fully recovered. The two strangers married a year later, and Scarlett now researches others who've encountered the same mysterious blue figures.VIDEO VERSIONRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/OneSkin Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38400612/https://scarlettheinbuch.com/"We Met On the Other Side" https://www.amazon.com/We-Met-Other-Side-Story/dp/B0C47YVWDK/

"I Saw God and Jesus" - Lynn's NDE - Drowned While Surfing
Jun 1500:44:52Tap to summarizeIn this powerful episode, host Eric Bennett welcomes Lynn Arches-Rappaport, a Massachusetts teacher and grandmother, who shares her Near Death Experience (NDE) from nearly 50 years ago. While surfing in Puerto Rico, Lynn was caught in a brutal set of waves, slammed against a reef covered in sea urchins, and began drowning. At the moment she feared she wouldn't survive, she was pulled out of her body. ___________________Birch Natural MattressesPodcast Listeners Receive 20% - 30% OFFBirchLiving.com/Roundtrip____________________Her NDE included a vivid life review, a tunnel with a shadowy being, a welcoming group of entities, and the presence of both her deceased father, Jesus, and God, all bathed in an overwhelming sense of pure love and warmth unlike anything she had known on earth. Lynn describes her Near Death Experience as "more real than real" — a state of unconditional love so complete that it transformed her understanding of life, death, and her difficult childhood. She returned from her NDE with a mission to share her story and has since written a memoir, Entangled. Lynn also discusses the life lessons she believes souls choose before birth, and why she no longer fears death — viewing it instead as a homecoming to a place of permanent, boundless love.

Renee's NDE at 5 - "I Was Moving Up Into The Sky"
Jun 800:37:07Tap to summarize*Warning: Contains Some Discussion of AbuseNot all NDEs come from happy places. When Renee Christine Martine was five years old, her father — a former member of the White Fence Gang hiding from the Mexican mafia behind a Jehovah's Witness conversion — came home in a rage and sent a tent pole into her face.Thirty-one stitches, a 45-minute drive bleeding out in a station wagon, and something else: floating above the farm looking down, a mysterious woman no one else could see, and absolute love and peace on the other side of it all.She has no paper that says she died. She doesn't need one for us to know it was a near death experience (NDE). What she came back with — apparitions appearing in her bedroom, premonitions that spooked her parents, a ghost in a pea coat outside her window at 16, and a lifelong magnetism for paranormal phenomena — made it pretty clear something had shifted permanently.Video Version of This EpisodeRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/Renee: https://reneemartine.com/

"I Looked Into My Own Eyes" - Michael's NDE
Jun 100:47:52Tap to summarizeMichael Florman died eight times. A cardiac arrest on the way to work launched him into one of the most vivid NDE experiences ever described — leaving his body, floating above paramedics, racing through a glowing valley, and entering a dark, peaceful void filled with unconditional love and acceptance. His near death experience even included a life review where he felt the emotional impact of his actions on others, all before being violently shocked back to life mid-NDE.But coming back wasn't easy. Heightened empathy, memory loss, and years of depression followed as Michael struggled to find meaning in ordinary life after experiencing something extraordinary. His message to anyone fearing death? You are not your body — you're the energy inside it, and that energy never dies. A must-listen episode.Video Version of This EpisodeRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/Michael: https://michaelflorman.com/

NDE Conspiracy - Who to Believe? What to Believe About Near Death Experiences?
May 2500:51:21Tap to summarizeWhat happens when a skeptical publishing executive stumbles into the world of Near Death Experience research — and it ends up saving his family? That's the unexpected journey of Shaun Tabatt, author of NDE Conspiracy, who joins host Eric Bennett on Round Trip Death to unpack how he went from doubter to devoted researcher. Shaun walks through his nine-point framework for evaluating NDE accounts, tackles the thorny questions around reincarnation and past-life memories, and challenges listeners to engage with even the most puzzling NDE testimonies rather than dismiss them outright.But the episode's most gripping moments come when Sean pulls back the curtain on his own life. When his wife Lynette was diagnosed with a stage four brain tumor, years of immersion in Near Death Experience research suddenly had urgent, personal purpose — allowing him to answer her deepest questions about death with the voices of those who'd already been there. In her final months, Lynette had her own out-of-body experience and a stunning vision of her heavenly welcoming committee. Then, on the morning she passed, a close friend texted Sean completely unprompted — describing a vision of Lynette in heaven, picking apples with Jesus. Some episodes leave you thinking. This one leaves you breathless.Video Version of This EpisodeRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/ShaunTabatt.com NDEConspiracy.com

13 Near Death Experiences (NDEs) - Greg Halpern's Journey
May 1800:48:44Tap to summarize"Go Back, Your Work's Not Done!"What would it take for you to die — not once, not twice, but thirteen times — and come back with something to show for it? In this electrifying episode, host Eric Bennett sits down with Greg Halpern, a Chicago-based judo world champion turned serial entrepreneur who has survived 13 Near Death Experiences that would have broken — or simply ended — anyone else. It starts at age five (NDE #1), when a post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage sends young Greg bleeding into the night and straight into a boundless space of warm, infinite light, where a deep, commanding voice tells him to go back because there's work to do. Each successive NDE Experience, he explains, felt less like a brush with death and more like a controlled transmission — the universe systematically clearing his mind to receive something extraordinary.By the time his 12th NDE hits in 2005 — a lungful of chlorine gas from a pool canister that felt like a blowtorch down his throat — Halpern had long stopped expecting to die. Then came Near Death Experience number thirteen — a ruptured appendix, three days of misdiagnosed food poisoning, a six-hour surgery for full-blown peritonitis, and a fatal over-medication that flatlined him in his hospital bed. What he saw in that darkness was chilling: a vision of global destruction centered on 2023, and an urgent message that he had been sitting on world-changing information for too long.

"The love was going into the Earth."After returning, Tammy spent decades quietly integrating her NDE experience into everyday life, finding few people who could relate to what she had witnessed. Over time she channeled her NDE into a spiritual practice — guiding others into deep presence, writing, and following the same inner voice that has intervened in her life since childhood.Her closing message from her NDE is simple: we are never truly alone, invisible support surrounds us always, and the breath is the most direct path back to that truth.Video Version of This EpisodeRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/Tammy: https://heartofcompassion.ca/
