Has seeing events like this led you to believe that we 'carry on' after death, that consciousness survives death? Yes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retep Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 My recollection of death was sitting on the settee after feeling a bit rough, then gone and remembering nothing for a fortnight, no one waiting or bright lights, but the pain of broken ribs after being resuscitated made up for my feeling nothing.

gaz 786 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Optimistic about life after death can't be that bad nobody ever popped back to complain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw this with my own eyes when my partner passed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padders Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Stan Laurel (Laurel-n- Hardy) died in 1965. Four days after a suffering a heart attack, he told his nurse he wouldn't mind going skiing, Taken aback, the nurse said "I didn't know you liked skiing" "I don't" replied Stan. "But I'd rather be doing that then this" A few seconds later he died peacefully in his armchair..... Still making us laugh. RIP. Stan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padders Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Talk about a laugh. Death can provide us with a laugh. Yesterday I went to a funeral, one of my old pals past away, a smashing bloke whom everyone had a good word to say about him. Anyway as they brought his body into the Church, the bottom fell out of the coffin and his body smashed onto the marble Church floor... Unfortunately the head became separated and rolled under one of the pews, where it became stuck under a wooden panel... Everyone was in fits of laughter as the Vicar took half an hour trying to retrieve the head using a candlestick. Even the undertaker couldn't keep a straight face... Had is wife still been alive, I'm sure she would have been laughing as loud as we were... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
