"The Day I Died" BBC Film

[Anthony Peake]

I am in the process of researching material for my next book and I came across this video on Google:

I recall watching this when it first was shown in 2003. However in watching it again (I am reviewing the background to the "Pam Reynolds Case" discussed in the film) I was surprised to note just how many people that I am now in direct contact feature in this film.

As most of you will know Bruce Greyson wrote the foreword to ITLAD, Peter Fenwick has attended one of my lectures and has recently agreed to contribute in a project I am working on with FORUM member consultant psychiatrist Dr. Mahendra Perera, Dr. Michael Sabom and I have swapped emails a few times and Dr. Susan Blackmore and I have also been in touch in the past (there was a possibility at one stage that her son was going to contribute some graphics to my website).

But I was also interested to see that Professor Stuart Hameroff also features in the film. Indeed the film gives an excellent graphic explanation of what Stuart (and Roger Penrose) suggests is taking place within the brain's microtubules ..... a subject dicussed many times on this FORUM and one close to the heart of ADP.

For those of you who are interested in understanding exactly why this field of research excites me so much I strongly suggest that you check this hour-long movie out. It really is quite fascinating.

Tony et al, did you catch the rather fabulous Larry King CNN discussion shortly before Christmas on NDEs with Deepak Chopra, Michael Shermer and DInesh D'Souza (author of "Life after Death: The Evidence") amongst others?

Below is a transcript of the show as I can't find it in audio. ABSOLUTELY worth a read.

Thanks Karl ..... I will read through this over the weekend.

It is VERY interesting!

Also you may wish to listen to and read through Dr Raymond Moody's recent radio interview and book "Between Two Worlds: Glimpses of Eternity Through Shared Death Experiences".

The Other Side: Radio Interview with Dr. Raymond Moody, on NDE
Dr. Raymond Moody was joined by editor and author Roy Abraham Varghese for a discussion about life-after-death, and what lies on the other side. Moody said he'd recently become more confident about the reality of life-after-death because of numerous accounts of "shared death experiences." Bystanders who were at the deathbed of a loved one reported seeing a light, the appearance of a tunnel, and "even including...co-participating in the panoramic life-review of the person who was passing away". They are, in effect "emphatically co-living the dying experience of those that are close to them," he added. Varghese has also concluded that life-after-death is genuine, after correlating a variety of data including cross-cultural beliefs throughout history, and contemporary testimonies from near-death experiencers. He noted that a new type of NDE has been reported, similar to the 'shared death experience.' Three soldiers were hit by a bomb, and they all reported seeing each other leaving their bodies. The two authors agreed that "the other side" wasn't a physical place as we would typically understand it. "What we're dealing with is another state of existence that is outside the framework of time and space", for instance, experiencers describe seeing everything all at once in their life review, Moody explained. He has a new book coming out called Between Two Worlds(co-authored with Paul Perry) and the first chapter is available here:
