What if death is not the end? Or even, what comes after death? In a story that defies conventional explanation, Scott Drummond, now in his late sixties, vividly remembers a near-death experience he had at the age of 28. After a skiing accident led to a routine surgical procedure, a critical mistake in the operating room led to Drummond’s journey into the depths of the unknown. During his 20-minute encounter with death, Drummond said he witnessed a series of events, and this includes an out-of-body experience, a meeting with what he believes was a divine presence, and a surreal life review. This is his story.

What Is a Near-Death Experience?

A near-death experience (NDE) is a term used to describe a range of personal experiences reported by people who have come close to death or have been in a life-threatening situation. These experiences often include a variety of sensations, emotions, and perceptions that can be both profound and highly individual. And this gentleman went through it at the hospital.

The Story Behind Scott Drummond’s Near-Death Experience

A man named Scott Drummond, who had a near-death experience lasting 20 minutes, shared his extraordinary story. His experience was so surreal that it could rival the imaginings of Aldous Huxley. At the age of 28, Drummond dislocated his thumb in a skiing accident, leading to a routine operation to correct the injury.

During Scott Drummond’s surgery, a nurse made a mistake with his surgical tourniquet, causing her to panic and exclaim, “I killed him!”. She then rushed out of the operating room. Drummond recalled that he suddenly felt a sensation in his arm and found himself floating above his body, observing the surgical procedure. He described watching every stitch being placed in his thumb.

What Scott Drummond Believes He Saw

Amid his near-death experience, Scott Drummond felt a divine presence next to him. However, he was also convinced that it was the presence of God itself. This encounter with the divine led to an extraordinary journey, as the faceless being then transported Drummond to a field adorned with magnificent, colorful flowers.

Drummond described this otherworldly journey, saying: “I remember so vividly, I could never look back, or I was instructed never to look back again, and the next thing I knew, and it was like a twinkling of an eye, I was standing in a field where the person who was with me was right next to me, but I couldn’t see them.

The field was unlike anything he had ever seen before. It had tall, distinctive trees that featured long trunks and leaves on top. Drummond was deeply struck by the uniqueness of these trees. He then continued to navigate through this surreal and spiritual experience.

Ready to Love Life Again

During his near-death experience, Scott Drummond described it as akin to watching a life video. This encompassed his entire life from birth to the moment he was on the operating table. This experience allowed him to witness both the positive and negative aspects of his life. Additionally, it gave him the feeling of being judged based on his past actions. He acknowledged that some of the memories were painful. However, others brought feelings of happiness, accepting the entirety of the experience.

After his near-death experience, Scott Drummond felt a strong urge to improve his life. He described having telepathic communication with a spiritual guide who told him it wasn’t his time to pass on yet and urged him to return. A celestial arm reached out to him before he returned to his body. Scott found it challenging to leave the beautiful and serene experience he had encountered and later discovered he had been dead for 20 minutes. This life-changing event prompted him to lead his life differently and with a newfound perspective.
