One of my best friends fell from a tree and broke his back (he's been wheelchair bound since).

They had to restart him twice. Once at the scene and once in the hospital. He had a near death experience during one of the episodes (I think it was at the hospital but I'm not sure). Said he felt as though the was being embraced by the most warm, comfortable, entity imaginable.

He wasn't a Christian and still isn't. He's not sure if it was God that embraced him, but he doesn't fear death any more.
