Confessions Of A Guy Who Died Twice And Came Back To Life

guy died and came back to life

How did you die the first time?

Well long story short, construction workers forgot to put warning signs on the freeway, I came on my bike at 90km/h in a turn and saw the obstruction. I had nowhere to turn so I hit the brakes and bam. Immediately after the accident my body shut down from the pain and physical damages on my body. No pulse, no breathing and no consciousness.

Second?

I was in agonizing pain after surgery so I received loads of pain killers. The pain, coupled with an immense amount of pain killers, caused my pulse to drop to around 10bpm and my respiratory system shut down.

What’s it Like To Listen To Music on $59,000 Headphones?

Sennheiser HE-1

Man, I’m not going to lie… they really f*cked me up.

Blown away would be an understatement.

Over the years I’ve made a few playlists of songs I think sound particularly good on headphones. Also songs that have been particularly meaningful to me.

And when rolling through those tracks, I was simply overcome with emotion.

What Was It Like To Go Through A Gas Attack In World War 1

Arthur Empey was an American living in New Jersey when war consumed Europe in 1914. Enraged by the sinking of the Lusitania and loss of the lives of American passengers, he expected to join an American army to combat the Germans. When America did not immediately declare war, Empey boarded a ship to England, enlisted in the British Army (a violation of our neutrality law, but no one seemd to mind) and was soon manning a trench on the front lines.
