I think it is very interesting. True, it is anecdotal but that is no reason to dismiss it out of hand.
There are so many accounts of similar experiences that the subject deserves serious study, which it is slowly getting.
As to the remark by another answerer that it is to do with brain activity as it nears death, I suggest they check out the amounts of these stories that come from people who are classed by health care professionals as clinically dead at the time - a significant proportion.
If the brain is classed as dead and inactive at the time - how can it be generating this phenomena?
Edit: In response to the thumbs down - there's none as blind as those that won't see - examine the subject THOROUGHLY and OBJECTIVELY before you attempt to comment on it definitively.
That is a true sign of intelligence, my friend.
God bless

All of these stories are just the people thinking about death. When somebody believe something, his mind tries to make evidences to prove that is true. In my idea nothing exist after death.

it relatively is very just about the main important crock I ever heard, and that i'm a Christian. Hell does not exist, era. the assumption replaced into created as an incentive to get human beings to stay morally. there is not any way God is so unjust as to certainly torture every physique for all eternity, it relatively is organic horsehockey. And attempting to scare human beings like this is in basic terms completely puerile. you are going to be ashamed. *Edit* So using fact he have been given burned in a airplane crash He went to hell, it relatively is staggering, what a deduction, sign up for CSI.

Near death experiences are just the brains way of closing down, but it would leave you with a profound experience.. If you read the history book, it tells you that the Devil was God's favourite angel, sinned and was caste down to earth. Unlike our open prisons, God put a fence around earth to keep the Devil in, hence the Van Allen Radiation Belt (You know the thing that says the yanks never got to the moon). So everyone knows where HELL is, it is HERE on EARTH.

No it doesn't mean anything. You ask any doctor or nurse and they will tell you many patients experience these type of near death experiences, yet some people experience nothing. Some claim the whole of their lives flash before them. Its just the mind playing tricks or closing down. Its nothing new, and doesn't prove existence of any after life.

Test pilots in 'g-force centrifuges' (where they spin in circles at high speeds to test their endurance) will also experience these 'near death' episodes where tunnels of light etc. etc. appear.
It turns out that as blood leaves the brain or stops moving or (as in the pilots case) is unable to reach the brain, our wonderful brain goes into 'shutdown' mode. One of the side effects is a wonderful series of hallucinations. I find it rather comforting to know that my brain, in my final hour, will treat me to the wildest trip possible.
But in no way are these near death experiences 'proof' of any kind of afterlife or indeed a human soul.

If a person does not want evidence on a subject before he believes in something then he/she is a fool.
Which is why people who read the bible, in a stronger vein than it being just a fictional book, are fools

Urm, no. Anecdotal evidence is no real evidence at all. Accounts of subjective experiences whilst the brain is under trauma are very interesting, and serious science is being done on this subject, but evidence for an afterlife? Evidence for the reality of bronze-age fables? I think not!

I think that if that was real evidence then we wouldn't be having discussions on a daily basis all around the world questioning wether or not there is an actual afterlife

Lazarus is provably false, wishful thinking is not proof and evidence.
