Selly Fear Death Experience

Experience Description

I was on a motor scooter and all of a sudden a car appeared in front of us. I was sitting behind, on the back seat. I was catapulted over the car but in that moment everything slowed down and I saw my body flying. I thought of how my family would react if I died and that I needed to do something to save my life. There was only the void but at the same time, it was as though someone was holding me. Then everything went back to normal, back to reality, and I found myself on the ground, unharmed.
