Hats off to Scott Berry for his priceless input - please absorb his tale so it is not repeated.

Thank you to Scott for this well written but sad article.

Wow, that is sad indeed, given how close they were to their stuff and what surely could have meant survival for Peter.

Very weird how he saw a bright light as he died... a truly sad account

Yeah, I caught that, too. :neck hair bristling:

I hear many stories like this... its even more 'neck hair bristling' when they drift back to life and talk about the bright lights... very strange indeed
