A bloke who claims he came back from the dead has shot down rumours of their being a great white light ushering you to the other side.
Kevin Hill admitted that he ended up standing by the side of his own body in what he calls the “peaceful spirit realm”.
The 55-year-old has Calciphylaxis – a serious, uncommon disease in which calcium accumulates in small blood vessels of the fat and skin tissues.

And this saw his dead, blistered skin eat his live skin, causing him to bleed out and lose five pints of blood.
During the horror ordeal, the Derby-native's heart stopped – and he had to be resuscitated by doctors.
In the summer of 2021, Kevin's legs started to swell up because they were retaining excess water.
He went to the doctors multiple times but he was dismissed, he said.
Finally, Kevin got an appointment at the coronary care unit in Derby and he was sent to Derby Royal Hospital within hours.
A few months later, he was diagnosed with the disease, which led to his “death”.
He said: “I wasn't looking down at my body, but I was separate from my body.
“It was like I was in the spirit realm – I was conscious of what was going on but I had so much peace.
“I knew I was bleeding, I knew it was serious, but the staff kept coming in and out to stop the bleeding.”

“I knew I had died and that I was separate from my body.”
He recalls watching the NHS staff trying to save him.
And then he just “went to sleep”, woke up and was alive again.
The bizarre experience has now seen Kevin reevaluate his life.
He explained: “I am in the final stages of recovery.
In my right leg, I still have some pain but it is not near the level it used to be – I would cry for hours.
"My pain level used to be 100 out of 10 and now it had dropped to a four.
"Everyone said I should be dead."
