You know, one thing i read recently... tons of people say all the wacky near death experiences are a result of dmt flooding your brain, right?

Well there's no good evidence for it. Literally they only say that because our bodies like most life produces the chemical, so anything crazy "must be a drug related experience". But they did studies on rodents which also produce dmt, and nothing showed dmt releasing near death.

It's a total cop out of an explanation with no scientific evidence.

Almost every dream I has a near death experience or multiple. My brain chemistry must be a mess!

I'll look into that though, I would like to hear peoples experiences and the theories behind them.

Almost got eaten by a bear in my dream tonight, I didn't even get a near-death experience out of it, just trying to fend off an angry bear with a pole I found. Man :(

My last was a tornado, I was holding on for dear life. I could feel the wind sucking me up, the debris, smell the rain. It was so bad I woke up...

And like I said in the other post the dream started right up as soon as I fell asleep. That tornado passed, I tried to find shelter and another came thru. I was in a wrecked mechanics garage between a classic C10 and holding on yet again for dear life to a car lift...

Oh wait that was 2 and 3 tornadoes, there was the near miss in the grocery store earlier. I hid under an old school checkout stand.

I'm glad you found a pole in your dream. I would have killed for a cellar in mine.
