What happens when we come face to face with death?

My truck was blown up by a 20-pound anti-taint mine.

I jumped out of an airplane. My parachute did not deploy.

I was kidnapped by a drug cartel in the outskirts of Mexico City.

I was tortured and held for ransom.

I open an eye and the bayonet comes down one inch from this cheek.

I just remember everything getting dark.

I was like, oh my God, I'm dying.

When we step beyond the edge of what we know.

I had flatline.

I clinically died.

In return.

I grabbed the electricity going into the train system.

All of the electricity went through me.

I was dead for 11.5 minutes and the heart stopped beating.

Alive again. These are firsthand accounts of people who have stood at the brink.

I was quite literally losing my own life.

I remembered the bated breath that we all had.

It was going to be my reminder to keep breathing.

In the fear, I was bleeding to death.

I was not going to be able to make it out of this.

They told me, kneel down, we're going to kill you.
