A man who flatlined for a few minutes has revealed how he floated above his body and met Jesus, who sent him back to Earth.
Chase Skylar DeMayo had been training tirelessly for his spot in the Air Force.
While he tried to manage the stress, it all got too much for him one day.

He was found, completely unconscious, by his supervisor.
The 38-year-old was rushed to the hospital, where X-rays and blood tests were carried out.
And although he seemed fine, Chase’s vision suddenly blurred and he recalled floating mid-air as he was greeted by a familiar face and voice; Jesus’.
“The last thing I heard was alarms going off,” the Air Force Veteran told Need To Know.
“A calming voice told me that it would be OK, and I felt no fear at all – only peace.
“I watched my body from above as I spun upward like a tornado, surrounded by lights, angels, laughter and music like bells.
“I ended up in a vibrant garden with colours brighter than anything here on Earth.
“There, I saw Jesus.
“Not the usual image, but with curly brown hair, green eyes and a warm smile.
“He was playing with a child who was my younger, happier self.
“We connected without words.
“He told me to go back and spread love, laughter, light and joy.
“And reminded me of my true purpose on Earth beyond everyday struggles.
“No matter my past, I had light to chase and share.”
Chase, who was only 19 at the time, was alone when he first fell unconscious.
He already “felt off” that same morning, and it became clear why when an air embolism entered his IV drip at the hospital, causing cardiac arrest, where he flatlined.
When he woke up, he was unhooked from the multiple machines keeping him alive, and miraculously, his heart functioned as if nothing had happened.
He said: “I was discharged quickly, with tests showing no damage.
“But I remember everything.
“I was fully aware, and the initial pain I felt turned into calm.
“There was an element of surprise, though no fear about dying.
“It was peaceful and beautiful, like cool ice leaving my chest.
“I didn’t want to leave the garden at first, but I understood my purpose wasn’t done.”
Chase, who was pronounced dead for a few minutes, says he can now sense other people’s emotions and that his “palms tingle” when speaking to God or Jesus.
Not only that, he claims to have an ability to heal with just his hands.
Ultimately, he retired from his position on medical grounds.
Now, Chase, from Florida, US, has just completed his doctorate in holistic counselling, with the aim of guiding people toward their life’s purpose.
He added: “It’s changed everything for me.
“I chase forgotten joys.
“And I live with a reminder each day to live with purpose, chasing light even in dark times.
“I feel grateful and transformed.
“I hid it for years to avoid being labelled, but I now see it as a gift that reshaped my path.
“I’m no longer fearful of death and embrace how fragile life is instead.
“I still communicate with Jesus, angels and find peace in the unknown.”
