I experienced these two times months apart. I experienced one time I experienced the center of my consciousness as my busted disc. And I experienced the world through like the electrical connections emerging from my L4, L5. It's very strange. And the other one was the only memory I have of that. And I'm not sure if this is accurate or some kind of illusion.

But I saw the drowning experience from above, the whole thing. I watched the 20 minutes that I was on the bottom of the pool and then up in 25 minutes and then on the pool deck and I saw the whole thing from above. But that was like years after it happened. So I can't explain that.

I don't know. My memory of it consciously from what actually happened is so fuzzy, right? Because I just died and came back. And then I saw it from above. I think I was mostly focused on the memory of myself. Yeah, so I relate to myself now like I've died. And I'm living and I live with a sense of gratitude and commitment. That's a big part of why we moved to the jungle with my family.

I emerged from that with a commitment to living life as beautifully and deeply and truly as I possibly could and to not let anything slip. Just all in.

No warning. I've done so many stupid fucking things in these extreme sports I've done. So many times I almost died free diving. But that one was different, man. The crazy thing was it was a technical blind spot. I just didn't know this thing about carbon dioxide. I didn't know I was taking a risk in that moment. I thought I was just taking a swim.

After or before?

Who taught you to do this? Nobody. I did Wim Hof breathing on land and I was like, you know, I'll fucking do it. I'll do it fucking on the swim right now. Sounds like a great idea.
