David's Fall From 75' Cliff - Beautiful NDE (Near Death Experience)

About this episode

David Cooke shares his life-altering near-death experience after falling 75 feet into a canyon at the age of seven.

During his NDE, David experienced leaving his body and going to a heavenly place. "It was like walking from one room to another." In this powerful episode, David Cooke shares a life-altering near-death experience (NDE) he had at just seven years old after falling 75 feet into a canyon. Clinically lifeless and placed in a coma for eight days, David recounts vivid out-of-body experiences, including watching doctors work on him, floating above the hospital, and entering what he describes as a heavenly realm. From his NDE, he describes overwhelming peace, weightlessness, and unconditional love—feelings far beyond anything experienced in the physical world. At a gate guarded by an angelic figure, David was told it was not his time and that he still had a purpose on Earth. Despite wanting to stay, he returned to his body—regaining consciousness against overwhelming medical odds. Now decades later, David reflects on how his NDE shaped his faith, eliminated his fear of death, and gave him a deep sense of purpose and peace about what lies beyond this life.
