Man who 'died' three times in horror crash and lived reveals what he really saw 'in heaven'

A man who had a near-death experience in a car accident when he was eight years old revealed what he saw when he 'went to heaven'.

In 1997, Landon Kemp was on his way back home from church with his parents, Andy and Julie, when they were involved in a horrific car crash.

Landon was flown to Carolinas Medical Center in North Carolina where he had to be resuscitated twice, but his dad died instantly at the scene.

"I didn't see what he was yelling at. I didn't see the ambulance coming. But I remembered him yelling. That was the last thing I heard from him," his mom Julie told the Christian Broadcasting Network.

"They couldn't see his body because of the damage that was done to the driver's side of the car.

"And Landon was sitting behind his dad. And when they saw Landon's shoe, it took a deeper search for his body.

"When they pulled Landon out from the back of the car, he was not breathing.

"And they all started working on him right away to bring him back"

Landon was fighting for his life and 'died' two more times, but doctors managed to resuscitate him.

Julie continued: "[Doctors] told me that if he lived, which did not look good, but that if he lived, that he would be like an eight-year-old baby.

"That he would not know how to walk or talk or to eat. I was so desperate that [it] was OK, I would take that."

Landon miraculously survived with no traces of brain damage, and as the years went by, told his mom he temporarily went 'to heaven' during the ordeal.

"I remember being able to see my dad and his friend Olan Palmer, who had passed away less than a month before he did," Landon said of his experience.

"And Olan's son, Neal Palmer, who had died on a four-wheeler years before," he continued. "Never one of us said a word to each other but we were just all standing there."

As well as seeing his father, Landon also said he saw his mom's 'two other children' from miscarriages. Julie claims she never told her son about the miscarriages.

"I knew that they were my siblings even though no one had ever told me about them," Landon recalled. "Just being in heaven, I guess you know your own or you know who everyone is."

"It was almost as if like a preview of a movie to where you only get to see certain bits and pieces of things," he continued.

He also said he met Jesus, he told him to 'be a good Christian'.
