Kevin Smith is a master story teller.
Not Master of The Universe story teller, though
That’s a funny way of saying Kevin Smith is a washed up, has-been, slandering good for nothing. But hey, to each their own I guess.
uh oh, Midas is triggered
@@erakattack the truth does trigger some people. That or you can just continue on. Ignorance is bliss I suppose.
TRIGGERED
Never in my life have I heard such a profound, intelligent, and relatable conversation on creation and the afterlife. Incredible that this came from Steve-o's podcast of all places. Thank you for opening my mind to new possibilities, and thank you for being so genuine. I love what you're doing here
Kevin was incredibly patient with all these guys. they're talking about completely unprovable and hopeful ideas, which Kevin described are very possible to simply be presuppositional, which means that you're going to look for a familiar hopeful idea. that of which there happen to be plenty of mythological hopeful ideas among every culture, because of course the uncertainty of what happens after death is spooky.
does the fear in the unknowable validate committing to a complete guess based on our unimaginably limited human perspectives? if someone saw a meat grinder and didn't yet learn what meat grinders were, would they be valid in committing fully to touching the meat grinder? or would they perhaps use a tool to experimentally test what happens when something touches the meat grinder? unfortunately, testing for a God or souls has so far proven to be completely futile. i'm not saying that excludes the possibility, but i'm saying that maybe you shouldn't touch the meat grinder with your hand.
hell, the one guy said he thought he was vietnamese in the past life. explain to me this. if we are "all one" then why in the world do people have specific past identities as opposed to the whole unified experience of everyone?
do you know why? because the narrative of unification is far less interesting and dramatic for people to be entertained by than these singular godlike figures who we fabricate to be a representation of ourselves, and ignorantly not a different animal -- though some other religions like those in India actually do have animals for Gods.
I second what SuperDuperDuc has said. This was really great to watch
cokeheads everywhere have this conversation nightly.
You can spend your entire life studying scripture and still not connect with the spiritual and mystical nature of the messages conveyed, whereas here we have two people who have experienced life at the most extreme ends, the highest highs, and the lowest lows. These men probably abandoned the idea of God or a spiritual force holding the universe together long ago. And between the time of abandonment and now they have come to many different conclusions on life, and what I find fascinating is that most people who have experienced a lot of life always come to a similar conclusion. More complex and comprehensible than most religious scholars and leaders, because it’s not just copy and paste indoctrination that they regurgitate, it’s a true life experience and years of rumination coming to an apex of consciousness.
I have panic attacks when i think about death. The idea of life just... ending... and then non-existence... it really freaks me out.
Kevins outlook and the peace he felt when he thought it was the end really brought me a lot of comfort about it. I hope when my time comes, I get to experience the same calm acceptance.
Probably not though
@@modest1989 guess i'll need to remember to smoke a bunch of weed lol
@@tyguy6296 it's all we can do
Had the same experience and I can tell you, you will feel calmer than you imagine, dong worry so much the body has it’s ways of helping you cope
Do you flip out about how you never existed for billions of years before you were born? Why should death be interpreted any differently? Dying sucks; that’s the experience which is to be feared and appreciated but death? That’s just a state of nonexistence, just like before we were alive
I love how Steve O is laughing while he talks about him having a heart attack
20:25 smith seemed really impacted by the thought of potentially having to experience the pain he's put other people through upon death.
easily the best interview hands down
I’ve heard Kevin give his perspective on death following the heart attack several times, and it’s really profound and beautiful. His words ring true regardless of what you believe happens after we die, however I think they are especially powerful if you don’t believe in life after death. He lays out with humility how death is not something to be feared. And I find that to be very inspirational. This is the first time I’ve heard him say that she leans towards that we are basically just computers and eventually we just end. But I really related to what Steve-O had to say , as well.
It takes way more faith to think our soul ends at death and that there's nothing beyond the material world.
regardless of what you believe... or don't. yes. well said .
@@bigguy7353 it takes infinitely more faith to believe that there is a soul at all, as opposed the the obvious materials that we are. have you ever considered that before?
The concept of non-existence makes no sense. It's hard to comprehend so watch all the near death experiences out there.
Thank you Stevo-o and crew for making these pods. Truly entertaining and a great host man.
Had the exact same heart attack at around the same time Kevin did, I had two 90% blockages and what he was talking about was very similar to my own experience too, I remember hearing about his one when I was in hospital, I wasn’t overweight and was fairly fit but I was two years younger than him and it felt like a movie and I was watching it on tv, like him I realised this could be it and as I was thinking that I heard the doctors having a regular chat about cars and it kind of brought me back, I’ve since had a new lease of life, joined a gym and feel a lot better than I did before I had the attack, if anyone else reading or watching this has swollen ankles, don’t ignore it like I did, it’s a sign that your body is not working right, go get it checked, mind yourself 🙏
You had a widowmaker? And did they tell you what caused the low EF you likely had that was causing the swollen ankles?
fuck. i don't know if i'd say swollen ankles, but after eating a pint of Ben & Jerry's (once or twice a week), or indulging in a chocolate chip cookie, i'll sometimes feel something in my left ankle. Sometimes my leg will even go numb for about 30 seconds before the numbness fades away. Nothing looks or feels particularly swollen though
I definitely gotta start working out again too. Lost a ton of motivation since i started working regularly a few years ago. I'm currently 25. Reading that just triggered my health anxiety a bit ngl. I gotta schedule for my annual physical soon anyway, since i'm due for one this year
Thanks for sharing. Glad you are doing great
@@mikeyt2404 I had no signs I had gone on a 5 mile cycle actually and my sock felt tight when I got home i noticed my ankle was huge, I spoke to my mother and she said it was just water retention as she suffers from it, later that night I got strange chest pains that felt like a cramp, at about 3 am I was still in pain so I decided to go to the hospital, I sat down waiting in the reception for 3 hours not realising I was having heart attacks, eventually they seen me and I was rushed in to get the stents immediately, the doctor said if I had gone to bed I would not be here today, no warning it happened just like that, only symptoms were swollen ankles and tightness across the chest that felt like muscle cramps, but the doctor said the ankles were a sign of bad blood flow so I just wanted to share my experience
@@lavenderllamamusic honestly man, get it checked, it was my left ankle too, even if it’s for peace of mind
Going from a 30 minute deep and thought-provoking conversation on spirituality and the afterlife, straight into Steve-O promoting his new book "A Hard Kick in the Nuts" is easily a top 10 life experience for me. Still laughing my ass off.
Thank you, Steve-O. 🤣
Thank you to that doctor for giving us many more years of laughs from Kevin....he is an American Icon. God bless
Pretty sure hes from canada
Kevin smith is from NJ
@@virgilbright5842 someone doesn't listen
He survived the heart attack and went from American icon to destroying icons of America. Absolute pity he survived unfortunately
@@kavalogue what did he do
I am an ER Nurse Medical/Acute, Kevin got lucky, he didn't have a massive heart attack but he could have if he had waited another hour or more. A massive heart attack would have left him in months of recovery and a fair percentage of destroyed heart tissue leaving him with a greatly diminished function for the rest of his life. I love how he changed his lifestyle after, sadly I have seen many many people never change a thing after recovery.
Okay, doc. Tell us how you would have done the surgery.
i got lucky, i waited like 14 hours, i am young just 41, and has what they called a STIMI but no lasting damage thank god
Best podcast soo far , really enjoyed everyone’s point of view for the afterlife 👍… nice calm Exchange of points and views, no right or wrong or passed judge … no argument or debate. Great points from different Resouces.
TBH I like him better just thrashing himself. This dude isn't cut out for legit business
I'm fucking terrified that there's no afterlife man. My life here has been pretty rough so far and the thought that my kids are destined for nothing has given me some pretty bad insomnia for months
@@norman4877 the fact that we perceive time as constantly unfolding instead of just fast-forwarding to the end means there’s a conscious state waiting for us in which we can recall memory. That state would be the afterlife. If we just cut to black and there was nothing, we would already be there and thinking of nothing, just like in a blackout. We are moving around and doing stuff but we don’t remember it so we essentially time travel to the next point in which we can recall memory. So because we remember everything as it happens, means there’s some form of awareness for the rest of existence that will allow us to look back on our life and recall. Your relative time perception within consciousness is a constant proof that your kids have a forever after. It’s up to you and them to make sure it’s a happy one 😊 Pray to something and eventually He will reveal himself to you
Yes……
@@WesleyB-Rook give me some sauce on this perspective. It's interesting but I'm needing more explanation
Not meaning to sound dismissive or anything. I'm extremely interested in any takes that can help rid me of my fucking depression that is a direct result of my nihilism
This is one of if not THE best conversations and guests Steve O has had on the pod cast. I had an almost identical experience as Kevin did about six months ago. My wife and kids were asleep and I started feeling really fucked up. I had been feeling sick for a week like I had the flu and was not able to take full deep breaths. As I laid there on my couch feeling very strange I broke out into a profuse sweat, but I figured it was the bug I thought I had. I decided to jump into the shower to cool off and because I was really sweating. I remember realizing in the shower that something was seriously wrong and that was going to lose consciousness. I remember thinking "please God let me stay conscious long enough to take a shit and put on my underwear. I was able to keep myself up and awake long enough to take a shit and wipe myself good with baby wipes because I figured I might have to go to the hospital. My mistake during this time was not yelling for my wife Jennifer to help me or call an ambulance. I finished my shit and washed my hands, and went to sit on the couch to put my underwear and shorts on. The last thing I remember was finally calling out to my wife "Jennifer something's wrong!' and then waking up on the hallway floor looking up at my wife who was crying on the phone to the 911 operator. I realized what was happening and remembered what had happened previously. I said to myself "Dude, get the fuck up off the floor your wife is terrified!" and tried to get up off of the floor, but literally could only roll onto my back and kind of lean my head against the wall. I kept looking into my wife's terrified eyes as to let her know I'm still here, even though I could feel my body slipping away. I was SO tired I wanted to shut my eyes but I had to keep them open and look my wife in the eyes to try and ease her fear. I said "I'm here honey!' and kept trying to inch my back up the wall. So weak and tired it was like my life force was leaking out onto the floor. The EMT's got to my house pretty quickly and mind you my two children are sound asleep (thank God) while three EMT's are putting heart leads on my chest and getting an EKG going. I'm sweating so profusely that the leads are slipping off and they tell me and my wife I'm in serious cardiac arrest. I mustered up one last bit of strength to grab an EMT's hand and help them help me to my feet. I took one step to the gurney and they strapped in right in my hallway by my front door. As were going towards the front door I lost consciousness again and I went somewhere. I don't quite know what this experience was but it was like plunging into a digital realm that was surrounded by vibrant red and gold almost like palace tapestry, but pixelated like a 90's video game. It was beautiful and I felt calm. This experience seemed to last a while, then all of a sudden in the blink of an eye my head lifted and I looked at the EMT's and my wife and said "Whoa! I just just had a dream!" and we weren't even out of my front door yet. I felt the cold night air on my bare chest as they rolled me down my front walkway and I felt like I was going to barf. I kept telling them I'm going to puke. They got me into the ambulance and the gravity started to hit me. We pulled away from my house and two EMT's (one on each side) have my wrists and they're trying to get a pulse. They look at each other with concern and each one agrees they can't feel a pulse. I said to them "That isn't good guys, is it?!?!" and they looked at me reassuringly and said "We're gonna get you there!"
As I lay there feeling the urgency of the driver and the speed with which he was pushing that rig I remember being so tired. Like a tired I'd never felt before. A tired that had me afraid to close my eyes even though my body was telling me to close them. I looked up at the ceiling of this ambulance and it hit me, THIS MIGHT BE IT! This ceiling and these EMT's may be the last thing I see. I started getting a bit sad even though I wasn't in despair or sobbing or saying I don't want to die. I was just sad at the thought that I wouldn't see my wife or kids again. I said "God if you want to take me do it, but please if there's more to do let me stay!" and right after that we pulled into Vallejo Kaiser where I was taken because I desperately needed an aortic pump installed. I was in a room with twelve people buzzing around me administering COVID-19 tests, reapplying heart leads slipping off from profuse sweat, and doctors feeling my feet and wrists as they asked me questions to keep me alert. I was whisked away to an operating room, shaved, and a doctor snaked a camera and pump through my femoral artery near my groin and into my heart. He looked at me and the other staff and said "His arteries are clean!" and then withdrew the camera and left the pump in my aorta. A machine at the foot of the table controlled the strokes of this pump in my heart and it felt like mechanically induced hiccups, but it was a balloon expanding and contracting with each faint beat of my heart. I immediately started to feel better though still not out of dire straights as far as anybody knew. The doctor explained to me that I had suffered an acute myocarditis due to the virus I had and that my heart walls had become thin. I was taken back to intensive care and only after it seemed I wasn't going to die that a nurse kind of explained the gravity of what I had just endured. Only then did I start to cry when I thought about the people who had just saved my life. My wife heard me hit the floor and woke up to call the ambulance. Saved my life. The EMT's got there quickly and diagnosed me quickly and made the decision to take me to the right hospital. Saved my life. The doctors and nurses at Vallejo Kaiser figured out what I needed and the doctor placed the pump in my heart in the nick of time. Saved my life. I had tears of reflection and of utter gratitude running down my face as I realized God's answer to my request was that there's more to do. Need not forget that. Long story short I spent the next six days at California Pacific hospital in San Francisco at a World Class cardiac ICU and was taken off of the heart pump on day six. I walked out of the hospital almost as if nothing happened, even though my heart wasn't at full capacity. My two boys who I hadn't seen in almost nine days were maybe the best thing I'd ever seen and boy was I seeing through new eyes. I need to remember this experience and how lucky I am and how each day I open my eyes is a gift with a purpose. I need to live with purpose. Having recently lost my beloved sister I am aware of how precious and fragile this experience I get to have really is. Almost six months has passed since this close to death experience and I had started to forget it even happened. I have an MRI next week to check on my heart and I can only hope it's good news. I've made some healthy changes and am living with purpose. Not perfect but progress. I'm not done here and wish all of the best for you my family and friends!
Oh man, your story has me crying over my breakfast. Thank you for sharing, glad to hear you made it through.
I love this conversation, things I think about often.
I’m not scared. I like to think I’ll get to see my dog again and that alone brings me peace
Bless your heart and your baby's sweet soul.
💀🤣
@@jetrifle4209 yikes
@@spe.z.artist I’d gladly die right now to see my doghter again.
I love seeing people, who don't necessarily have the same beliefs, just shoot the shit about it and just chat.
l love hearing Kevin Smith tell stories, engaging , insightful and just funny as hell!
Love Kevin, Love Steve-O, loved this video. Keep growing and encouraging us to grow.
I know what he means, I was in a plane accident and I didn’t want it to be happening, but I just looked at my family and smiled . It was a weird peace and appreciation that floods you. It was eerie how everyone on the plane went deathly quiet.
How bad was the accident? Was it a crash or what?
@@Dev-In-Denver123 Thankfully we landed mostly safely in a field in Newark of all places.
We were flying back to visit family in Europe as we do each year. The crap part was it wasn’t too long after 9. 11. So the security stuff wasn’t figured out yet and it was sheer madness. Finally getting on the plane and we were halfway across the Atlantic. We were having awful turbulence but that sometimes happens if there’s a storm or something. I looked out the window and saw flames and the plane was dumping stuff. I asked my Ma what was coming out the plane and she just closed the window. A bit later the pilot came on to tell us we lost half our engines and we were turning back around to America for an emergency landing and he would try to make it to an airstrip but wasn’t sure. It was deadly silent and very very eerie. Finally we barely made it back to America and he found a field in Newark and we all just buckled . It was soo spooky but after we caught our breath there was a standing ovation. We had to wait for the fire people and then medics checking us one by one before departing.
The crap part too was trying to find hotels for all of us and my Ma trying to get ahold of my Da on the west coast to let our family know in England because they were picking us up.
We also helped a German group because theY were confused.
I did try to figure out with my husbeast why he didn’t try to land in England rather going back to America. I think it may have had to do with airspace ? Perhaps having more breathing room in case something else happened?
It was very scary though. We did get an official letter about a lawsuit and something about it being a 72 hour delay from our destination.
could listen to this guy all day!
Fantastic conversation and I enjoyed the back and forth. Like Kevin said, if I ever thought I'd hear a deep conversation about the afterlife with Steve-O and KS, I'd be like, "huh?"
I didn't expect to hear such a deep reflection on life & death from this interview.
How did this interview hit me so deep? I was just talking about Kevin's life to my older coworker and now this interview just hit me.
Kevin Smith is a Legend to me it goes deep I feel ya. Glad he's still with us. From childhood to today he's provided endless comedy and lots of reflective thinking. He's a great writer.
It was hitting me hard too, felt like crying the whole time but not out of sadness.
Steve-O, that's the best explanation of the meaning of life I've ever heard. Thank you, friend.
I did Ayahuasca and I 100 percent had a life review. No one else at the ceremony did.
My trip started by going to the light.
I was told if I wanted to, I could leave my body for good right then.
It's hard to describe or condense the experience into words but I definitely think it depends on what the person is ready to know/experience. You won't experience something your not ready for.
holy shit man. good on you for holding it together, i had some experiences with lsd, about a dozen over 5 years and having done that i respect anyone to do any of the big boy psychedelics lol.
Kevin Smith is awesome. I’ve loved all the entertainment he’s created over the years! It’s too bad there are people that want to complain, rather than go watch what they enjoy. I’m super excited for MooseJaws!
love Kevin Smith, glad he is still here FMB!
Damn dude this was deep and dope, his perspective on this really shows you why he is successful
I had a heart attack last January at 42.. had two blockages of 98 percent.. If it wasn't for my wife I would have laid down and just died because it was exactly like Mr Smith said. My wife phoning 911 and the ambulance attendants saved my life. Never did see a light or anyone familiar to me. Just remember blinking back into awareness to don't die on me in the ambulance.. I've never been afraid of death because sadly rare medical conditions expedite near death experiences. From what I've seen he is kinda right your here today and gone tomorrow the wind down is abrupt..
This video was too short, I love deep talks like this!
the best 30 minutes this year so far ! on all youtube.!!
I had a near death experience this year.
I woke up, got ready for work and headed out. I drove my route and was about 30 feet from my job, I had one last street to cross. I pull out and next thing I knew I was spinning. This guy had been doing 106mph in a 45, he hit the brake for 1 sec according to the black box info. The impact was a t-bone at 103 mph.
I had a dissected aorta, my spleen was destroyed, my lung collapsed, broke my hip is several spots, had to have emergency surgery to stop internal bleeding. Tbh the mental health has been the more difficult to overcome. I'm healing up now and just so ready for life and fearful at the same time. It really really changed my outlook and opinions on life.
The story is crazier than that. Just too much for typing. Just wanted to chip in my story and experience.
Sorry that happened to you man, glad you’re still with us.
You survived a busted aorta, you have more to do here.
Happy to hear you are recovering! Did you experience certain things would you explain if your up to it. Like explain if you had seen a light or what not. Like a life review or your own unique experiences.
Ankh'le Steve!! Dude, Eyeve Been Listening IV` 2 Daze Now x Maaan OUTSTANDING PODCAST DUDE! 🙏💯
I love this clip. I once read a book about near death experiences and I remember being gripped by it. I would love to revisit this topic.
great conversation, both you guys are awesome
SteveO I’ve been watching your podcast for a while now and this episode has been the best one ☝️ love u dudes 🤘
For myself I had that once, the feeling just before death, and yes, every responsibility melts away... You know what was the weirdest one: Breathing, as if its not some automatic thing we do in our minds, but some automatic thing we do because of some absolutely monumental deep instinctual stress motivating it.
This was so damn interesting, I’m from NJ, very close to where they have filmed various films, particularly near Quick Stop in Middletown, NJ! Kevin is such a amazing speaker, i could listen to this guy all damn day long! No stuttering, no it’s and buts, just straight up attention soaking.
You guys got hella deep!! Great fucking interview!! I like deep thoughts with Steve-O!!!
When I think about someone and kinda day dream my thoughts, even of it's someone I havent spoken to in 10 years, I end up hearing from them in 3 days. It never fails and is super weird.
this has happened with me too in the past couple years. I'd think of someone i haven't seen in awhile, whether i was close with them at one point or not, and end up seeing them or hearing from them a few days/weeks after thinking of them
Really good stuff guys. Seriously strong discussion on the afterlife, life, and being alive! I would have loved to have been part of this discussion haha!
Loved it looking forward to my review popcorn is already popping 🍿
Can relate...even the same hospital...he nailed it..
I had a experience very similar to Kevin when it comes to accepting death. It was in hs and there was an accident and I knew I was dying and it was just like an "oh ok... this is happening ... oh well.." but then I woke up... came out on the other side in the hospital bed and since then and even before a bit I was at peace with it. Still to this day. But I will say it changes you. Love this podcast episode... how can you not love Kevin Smith. He's so cool and sincere and wonderful
This was an unexpectedly awesome video to stumble across
I could listen to Kevin talk for hours.
Love this show ! Makes me feel less lonely like I’m somehow in the same room with them ❤
Great interview!!
I hope the life review thing is real across species, and my doggo got to experience all of our fun times together... That would be an awesome treat! Fucking great clip-o!
This is fucking great conversation
My favorite on so far love it man
Absolutely amazing!!
“We’ve gotta remove your jorts”
Short simple, Increible conversation!
Kevin is right. Who the fuck thought Steve-O could go that deep.
After having a heart attack myself and being saved your story is exactly like mine, use the fact that your alive and have a second chance at life do something good to help others. ❤
I had a NDE as a teen and didn't realize it until I smoked DMT years later. The experiences were very similar for me.
The crazy part of NDE and life review is when people experience scary things. The experiences people describe that are dark, gritty, scary and horrifying and the opposite of "heavenly" and warm and "happy go to the light". Those fascinated me
To my understanding and belief the thing about the pre determined events vs free will is the events happen so that you can choose how u deal with it. They teach you something. You have lessons to learn and lessons to teach.
I just yesterday saw the clip from Clerks III where R had the exact same issue in the hospital. Makes sense, you write from what you know. I'm glad they're both (reality & fiction) okay now.
I died for the first time when I was 18. I will die again. I'm with Steve-o in camp unity.
"Hard drive spins down and that's it"
*SSD (has entered the chat)
Clerks is one of the greatest pieces of art ever created.
Fun fact: planes calculate weights and stuff based on averages. They're not out there weighing passengers and bags and shit. They probably had too many bags in the cargo hold or too much fuel, so they had to be like "well that means one less person". I think they also apply different "averages" for places like American Samoa because they're way heavier on average. On smaller planes or empty flights you may get asked to move to a different seat for weight distribution, and ground crews can also load dumbbells into the cargo hold for balance.
Bonus fun fact: on any given flight probably 10-15 people are what's called non-revs. Meaning their ticket was "at cost" or free because they're friends / family to airline workers. So they can often be the first asked to make room if a paying passenger shows up. But when you hear "the plane is completely full" it's probably because all the gaps were filled with non revs. Rarely is it 100% sold out and everyone actually shows up to the gate.
Honestly kevin smith is an inspiration to better myself not only physically but as a person on a whole. Super glad he took the wake up call and bettered his lifestyle so we could keep watching his movies and stand up. Love this guy even though ive never had the pleasure to meet him. Would love to just chill with him and talk about comics for a whole day lol
This is a great conversation
My exact words to the nurse when she said "your having a heart attack" was "you need to check your equipment because I KNOW what a heart attack looks like, (clutching my chest while holding other arm straight out) THIS IS THE BIG ONE, HERE I COME" The silver lining of my attack is that I can tell my story to all my friends around my age and maybe one day they will recognize the very mild symptoms and go to the doctor. Hell, I was 39 years old, not obese, active and hasn't smoked in more than 10 years...doc said I won the genetic lottery so it can happen to anyone. Tell as many people as you can what you felt and to not give the EMS static because you don't want a nurse to see your man boobs and sac!
@Cosmo || Anime Analyst not 100% certain but probably chicken breast or ground bison with some kind of green and a carb.
This was a really nice video Steve-O
Wow my Dad and Kevin Smith beat the statistics. Same exact way and everything, my dad actually drove himself to the ER with the family on the phone. This is a truly unique coincidence.
I had died approximately 5 minutes from a international od.. the light I experienced was myself. No physical form, just points of lights. Some brighter than others, making the shape of my body. Life flashed past me, everyone seemed familiar. Than just me suspended in darkness. I was than defibrillated back. Most painful thing I ever experienced. No pain, no worries had all came flooding back, every nerve ached. Wouldn't wish it on anyone.
Kevin smith is awesome
Definitely, something that leaves you with the old adage of food for though great convo as well
I’m in tears. Holy shit. A lot to take in..
This was great to watch.

That highschool analogy was spot on.
I believe in heaven because, I believe in consciousness, not religion but, spirituality yes. I love how you guys talk Soul contracts and Delores Cannon.
24:39 ANGEL HEART. Awesome reference and amazing movie
confession time. i had a NDE at the age of 18 due to my drug addiction. im 27 now. ive spent the last 9 years just hoping to go back to that place. idk if its heaven but there is something better after this. i happily await that. its ok to look forward to it i think, better even.
Yo I didn't know Steve-O was this philosophical. This is my kind of conversation
Nice video Steve-O. This was interesting!
I overdosed and died for a few minutes when I was around 15. I didn't have a life flashed before my eyes experience. Everything just went black, and it felt like I was part of that darkness, just floating. Thought, I can just give up and die right now. Then i thought, no, I'm still young, i just started seeing this girl, (didn't know it but she was pregnant with one of my sons at the time,) and i went nah, not ready to die yet. Next thing i knew, i could see the hospital around me, and the doctor was getting ready to hit me with the paddles.
as someone who has tripped on dmt, I have had my life flash before my eyes, in very intricate detail
When my mom passed away it was shortly after I left. I was driving home it was 3:13 and I felt my mom go through me. it was so odd soon as I felt it I yell mom. When I got home my nephews stopped over and told me she passed on my way home..
Straight up the plot to clerks 3 lol

I think the reason people who do psychedelics don’t experience a “life-review” is simply because they’re not dying. Like Kevin said, your brain can’t relate to the trauma of dying because it’s never had to experience it before and anyone who has done psychedelics can tell you that your trip is usually pulling from whatever your current state of mind is. Of course people tripping on DMT aren’t going to report a similar experience to people at death's door. They’re not facing the reality of non-existence in that moment.
But sometimes they do because they actually think that they are dead or dying
Kevin had waaaay too much patience for these guys. the one dude said he thought he was vietnamese in his past life with a hippy smile on his stupid face. these guys simply gravitate to entertaining ideas, which is an incredibly depressing presentation of human stupidity. why do people have specific past identities as opposed to the unification of all life? seems like a very human-centric narrative to me.
and yeah you make a good point. DMT while you're not dying vs DMT while you're dying is probably 2 entirely different animals.
This is what conversations turn into when you smoke The Marijuanas
Angel Heart! Omg, that was a great film.
I believe that Kevin has said previously that smoking weed that day also attributed to saving his life since it kept his BP down, he remained relatively calm, and didn’t feel any pain.
Angle Heart. still to this Dayan amazing compelling film. One of a kind.
I'm not at all religious but I find it interesting that from what we know about the ancient Egyptians is that they had a sort of "life review" experience that happens upon death where the person's heart is weighed against a feather. Steve-O made it completely clear that he thinks it just is what it is and it's not guided by some force more powerful than us. The Egyptians were one of the most spiritual civilizations to have existed that put great weight on the afterlife. Maybe their spirituality has been misinterpreted and they didn't think their "life review" was an actual event either but just some random synapse firings brought about by the trauma of shutting down and the weighing of the heart against the feather was just their way of representing it. Deep stuff guys! I'm of Kevin's opinion about death being like a hard drive winding down and it's just the end but I still find these topics fascinating to dive into.
I get what you're saying about death. I've been on the table and thought the same thing. No BS, just understand that I've had a good life. I have done everything I need and have had everything I've wanted. It's a lot of peace and not a bad feeling. I'm still alive and I'm happy but my fear is gone.
I’m glad he’s healthy and alive. Clerks 3 was so fuckin good and after seeing this I can tell where the story of the movie kinda came from
Death before dishonor...great line steve o
Not really. I've seen it on Bic lighters
A workmates father died on the operating table (heart attack I think?) and he was dead for some time before the doctor/team brought him back. He said that he saw something when he died but that it was utterly horrendous but always refused to go into detail even to his son (my workmate) But what he saw terrified him and made him incredibly fearful for what comes after.
So scary I know someone who had a similar experience with an OD but he was able to he brought back.
That sounds horrible to keep thinking about it and being scared of dieing because of what could be whaling for him. Did he straighten up and become religious after or did he go the opposite way and say screw it I know what’s waiting might as well break all the rules.
If you’ve ever taken acid you’d know you can have a good trip or, occasionally, a bad trip. The same goes for the chemicals in one’s brain that are activated when dying, along with the effects of lack of oxygen. I took a fall off of some scaffold. I was over 50’ off the ground so I knew, factually, I was going to die. Obviously that didn’t happen, but even without dying, just the chemicals released during that fall stretched time out for minutes seemingly, and I experienced total peace and all fear of death left me. That happened without dying for a short time. Just imagine how much more intense it is for those whose brains get the full dose (for either good or bad). Luckily, while time is distorted wildly, once we do actually die there’s nothing. Sorry. We all experience the same exact thing as we did before we were born. Do you remember how terrifying that was? Of course not.
He tasted the DMT
@@jessebott1879 he certainly didn't become religious. But whatever it was deeply troubled him. The fact that he wouldn't share it with anyone makes it hard to judge what, if anything, could be done to ease that existential dread.
That was awesome!
I didn't know I had a heart attack until almost a week after it happened...
This is a great conversation, but it’s even better on weed
