Hello
How accurate is ADHD in movies?
Get me on for ADHD just kidding I'm excited.
hello I am politely asking for the arfid video
Could you pls do a day with people with attachment disorder
julia: they/them
frank: he/him
eben: eb/en
i WHEEZED
yeah I saw that and I'm like
well guess eben just doesn't have pronouns lmao
eben obviously evolved past the use of pronouns. eben is far too infinite to comprehend labels.
Eben surpassed the entire concept of pronouns and has evolved into Eben 😌
@@hellokairuu gender abolitionist Eben
Julia: they/them
Frank: he/him
Eben: *my pronouns are none. please do not refer to me. even better; do not perceive me. for practical purposes, i do not exist*
I was literally thinking about that the whole vid 😭🤚
I love this
Where is that from?
ebe/eben are ebeir pronouns wdym
he’s my favorite ☺️ eben is love, eben is life
Julia: I felt people
Frank: I saw all black, and it felt like I was blackout drunk
Eben: ✨😇🦋💖🌿🌸💞🥺👐💗
😭😭😭😭
Don’t forget 🎶 🎶🎶🎶🎶
Eben seems very manic to me. Talking a mile a minute without taking a breath. Like he's on speed. I'm glad it was a positive experience, but he seems like he has brain damage.
Amazing 😂
Lol xD
Julia: I could sense people from a different space.
Frank: It was darkness.
Eben: I ascended to Nirvana, established contact with higher beings, discovered the divine, reached Akasha, and found a utopia.
I was thinking the same thing lol 😅
I think he went to heaven literally

This would be so interesting
Please
frank: basically asleep
julia: kinda there
eben: WORM POV
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lmao
HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA
I was dead for 3 minutes and brought back into a 3 day coma. I've had 2 NDEs and been dead twice for unrelated injuries. My takeaway: I've been friendzoned by the grim reaper. The biggest problem is that now I kind of feel like I'm invincible. I don't feel like death is even an option.
I just laugh at the people who say “YOLO!” Uhhh, sometimes you get more than once 🤷🏼♀️
Ive had what was a semi close to death experience a few times. last time i was in the hospital everyone cried and i thought absolutely nothing of it because it happened so many times. So i know what u mean by feeling invincible lolll
i feel like that after surviving so many sewercide attempts I'm just immoratal
You took me out with the “friend zoned by the grim reaper”😂😂

I like your avatar :3
HI NIKU
yoo whatchu doin here
One guy: *describes a heavenly experience that transcended time*
Other guy: “yeah felt like being blackout drunk”
Crazy how different it can be fr
Could represent the difference between a medically induced and an acute submersion into a coma.
@@flippitydobop Yeah i think there's a big difference
maybe coma relates to how you blacked out. knowing the other guy was actually drunk when he was on coma, it's pretty logical.
maybe it relates to your beliefs before you went in the coma
eben carried, he added SO much detail so we can basically feel like we were there. i appreciate you eben.
It's fabricated. You can find that in a simple search. He's trying to sell his book, but the actual set of events isn't the way he described it.
That's quite sad to this day people still believes in such non-sense
@@momosaidnineisfine2194 what he experienced seemed like a drug trip probaly.
@@momosaidnineisfine2194 I think it's fine if people believe in this and are inspired by the story then i Feel like there really no harm
agreed
I highly suspect that Eben experienced a DMT trip.
The things and events that he described are quite similar to things people describe that have experience with DMT. DMT is a naturally occuring chemical substance that is also produced in our brains. If I remember correctly the brain releases a dose when a person dies, and sometimes does during near-death experiences. It is quite likely that reports about out of body experiences, white lights, tunnels, new colours, supernatural beings and many more are caused by this. It is considered by many as one of the most intense and profound hallocinogenic substances and I think it must have fueled Eben's awesome experience.
mhm.
There are articles (research and discussions) that talk about a chemical thats released during near death experiences that is very similar to DMT. not sure if its that your body releases a chemical-- thats was just my understanding of it.. but they say DMT can mimic the feeling of whatever if is that happens to your brain/body when your about to die.
Yes that’s exactly what I was thinking
Was very similar to a mega dose acid trip I had when I was younger
Yeah I though so too
Frank: I felt black out drunk
Eben: *I debunked quantum physics and the multiverse theory down to the finest thread*
Keanu 😭
The confidence Eben has in those things seems so arrogant...

Eben: ANYWAY HERE'S MY NEW RELIGION. WORM TIME BABIE
😂😂😂😂😂
True
It be like that 🤯
@@XTheUltimateHeartzX I changed it don't worry. But it wasn't exactly wrong. I wasn't claiming that Christianity is a cult (or whatever Eben has going on). I was more making a slight reference to the fact that most religions started like Eben, with a hallucination and a resulting new view of the universe.
*W H E E S E*
My dude Eben just went on an extended LSD trip
How the heck did you find the perfect visuals for Eben's descriptions of his coma?? Love it!
They made them???
Made them up just like Eben did.

Genuinely so glad that Julia said that the coma had nothing to do with their surgery. I'm getting top surgery end of this year so pretty soon (time flies by) and I legit got scared. Like the doctors and surgeon didn't tell me that could happen. But luckily it cant from the surgery.
Ooh I’m so excited for you!!
HAVE YOU GOTTEN IT YET??
How did it go? I’m planning on getting top surgery when I’m an adult
Genuinely want to know how it went? I hope it went well and you're happy with your results!
I hope it went well and if so congrats
Eben sounds like he had a good trip on coma.
frank: its like being blackout drunk
eben: FAIRIES, ANGELS, DOGS, CHILDREN
To be fair, most people experience the same blackout as a drunk person under anesthesia. He did say it was medically induced
i feel bad for the guy that was editing that part of the video
@@marcosan7888 why? He have all the idea, now he just needs to edit that
@@abdhulhackul2620 yea but just imagine looking for all the clips he needs for this part, it must be a pain in the ass, i mean, i have edited shit before, and its not easy to find good clip videos
@@marcosan7888 Knowing how big this channel is, it's quite normal that the editor (or editors) got some skills. But it's still a really nice job!
My daughter was in a coma after having brain surgery. During that time I read her books that were her favorites when she was a child (she was 36 at the time), I would put warm towels on her face to freshen her up, talk to her all the time, and rub her cheeks against mine. She told me she heard and felt everything I did. During her final coma, I did the same things even though we were told she wasn’t going to recover. I hope she felt and heard me until her last moment.
She did ❤️
You’re an amazing mother
You're so strong, she loves you so much.
🥺🥺
❤❤❤
im about to have top surgery next month so hearing julia's story initially filled me with anxiety but they really eased me by mentioning it was unrelated they didnt have to include that detail but they did thankyou so much julia i hope ur doing well!!!!
I hope your top surgery and recovery went well and that you are living your best elated "I can be shirtless if I want to" life. Love from a Swedish pansexual
I hope your surgery was successful and you're happy 😊
I thought Eben's testimony was amazing and actually encouraged friends to listen to his story, but I've been made aware that his medical career was full of malpractice and he is notorious for being a bad historian. Even his own doctors say that the procedure he underwent is different to the story he tells. It's unfortunate and I think Eben probably did experience something phenomenal.... But I wish I'd done research about him sooner so I could see how much I could actually believe anything he says.
Some people in the comments/replys are saying that what Eben says on the interview is fabricated. The commenters also say that Eben wrote a book about the whole experience and it was totally different from what Eben said in the interview.
I've been in a coma for about 2-3 weeks if you want to know more 😊
Sounds like a bunch of bs to me
@@annagustavsson179 I would like to hear about it 🤗
@@BlueDreamsYT I read the book and I liked it. It is the same story but he had to summarize it a lot.
frank "it felt like being blackout drunk"
eben *creates own religion*
She-ra pfp?
Eben was enjoying the interview so much he wants to come back for the episode “I spent the day with a CULT LEADER”
I appreciate his distinction between "wondrous world" and "the world of" when talking about more serious topics.
Very True I also noticed that
No i think he just doesn't do that altogether anymore, so he only says that in old videos.
@@sonnemaral5135 well i think his last couple of videos have been on more serious topics. Maybe whem he gets back to lighter topics he'll start saying it again
"the wondrous world of schizophrenic school shooting survivors in a coma"
Same. I thought I was the only one who noticed
I'd love to see "I spend a day with NDE (Near Death Experiences) Survivors from Hell" So unlike Eben's beautiful heavenly experience, you talk to those who had a terrible hell experience and came back
my dad was in a medically induced coma for about a week or 2 because he had necrotising faciitis (flesh eating disease) & he still tells me about all the trips dreams he was having in the coma & it was such a scary time because he had 90% chance he wasn't gonna make it but I'm very glad he got through it
Julia: they/them
Frank: he/him
Eben: I have transcended past your world's need for pronouns.
😂
His experience is the most abstract but he's the only one who doesn't feel the need to tell us what we can see with our own eyes.
@@Maialeen Not a hate comment, but you can't really SEE someone's pronouns. One of my close friends use they/them pronouns yet they look femenine because they have prominent hips and a more fem face structure, yet they don't use traditionally femenine pronouns.
@@Nico-qb4kp
You can when it's obvious that person isn't somewhere in between. It's obvious that Eben would assume that you would refer to him in the third person as he/him, because he doesn't see the need to disclose his pronouns. It's just not a thought that comes to his mind, hence why he didn't list any.
@@jackcolson4745 i use any pronouns (she/they/he/it) and you cant tell it just by looking at my face.
You shouldn't be trying to only tell someone's pronouns by how their presenting whether they're fem presenting or masc presenting ect.
My best friend is genderfluid but also super fem presenting, its just a lot easier to ask instead of assume.
since we dont know Eben's pronouns yet we use they/them pronouns for them until we know otherwise.
for april fools he should spend a day with normal ass people
That'd actually be really cool, because guaranteed these people would be self described 'normal' and seem ordinary and boring on paper, but their wildest stuff would come out in the interview. There's no such thing as normal really, everyone has something going on
This comment needs more likes
I spent a day with Homo sapiens
😂😂
I spent a day with straight people
"Why are you straight???"
"How are you straight???"
Julia: it was kind of dark and weird, I kind of sensed people in the room though
Frank: it was like sleeping a dreamless night
Eben: I transcended reality and time and space
Eben's story made me so happy for some reason, I just feel really joyful listening to his story, I'm glad they let him speak and aired it even though most people will brush off experiences like that, no matter what you believe, it was a lovely vision!
Hey Anthony, if you ever make a video about people with Endometriosis, I'd love to speak to you! Im 31, disabled from Endometriosis, ive done 2 different chemotherapy treatments, and 6 surgeries. Endometriosis effects approx 10-20% of adult women in America, and over 176 million women worldwide. These numbers are probably much higher than that though, because it takes on average 10 years, and 7 different doctors, in order to get a diagnosis, and the only way of diagnosis is via surgery.
I am literally an encyclopedia about Endometriosis, and would be so happy to talk about the effect it has on those who have it, and their families and friends.
Also, id just like to say, that cramps are totally normal, but *pain* is not normal, its your bodies way of telling you something is wrong. So if you experience pain associated with your cycle, *PLEASE TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR*
YES! I WOULD LOVE AN EPISODE ON THIS!!!
@@Tinaaa_936 thank you!💝💝
Yes yes yes! Endometriosis has completely altered my life at just 18, and I really love hearing other people’s experiences with it as well. I hope he does this at some point :)
@@alyssaeasley2894 I'm so sorry to hear that. My IG is Brigidacadiente if you *ever* need anything. Us EndoSisters stick together 💛💛💛
Yes I have endo! I’m okay but it’s so painful 😣
You know what would be cool if you spent a day with people that got a Exorcism.
That would be SO INTERESTING
That would be a really cool episode
That would also be extremely traumatic for the person telling the story, mainly because exorcisms aren't real, they are placebos, and most occur due to a person or their family being so super super religious that they would rather this magical fake ritual be performed on them, instead of getting actual medicinal help from a trained professional with a scientific background.
YES! Also to the person above me... he literally did an episode on time travelers. It doesn’t matter if you think it’s real or not. People have experienced things (or think that they have since you wanna be that way). The people that liked and responded to this comment want to hear from them.
@@lauren3173 I didn't say not to do the episode. I just said it would be traumatic. Don't be so defensive. I think it would be a great episode too. I just worry about the effect it would have on the people reliving it as they tell the story.
Coma is a life changing experience. I'm also a coma survivor. I felt from the back of the truck...hit my head on the ground...my brain was full of blood..induced coma for 2 days. When I was in coma I had one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I saw two much...beautiful things...saw spirits..I saw my great-grandmother that passed away 17 years ago, got to talk to her thing that i missed the most...I saw my own body laying down on bed in coma..and more..saw too many things.
Frank: sleep
Julia: Aware?
Eban: acid
Only a neurosurgeon can give such beautiful, elaborated explanation.
Yea it felt like he was reading a book to me
He did so good! I’m glad Anthony had him on here!
Beautiful, elaborated bullshit*
@@stripeybeast agreed. It was beautiful, and I'm glad he had such a positive experience, but to go beyond and say that "modern neuroscience can't explain this" as a neurosurgeon is absurd and irresponsible to his audience.
He acts as if this phenomenon has never been studied before.
There's nothing wrong with just talking about your experience, but he's literally promoting an agenda here and even his books.......
Almost felt like he was... you know... selling himself (because he was.)
@@ModernParadigm damn never seen it that way
Eben: "My back started hurting and then I fell into a coma"
Julia: "I got painful headaches and then I fell into a coma"
My hypochondriac ass feeling everything they say: 👁👄👁
think about all the times you didn't fall into a coma after physical pain. Your chances are good my friend.
Literally I'm so triggered rn 🥲
You might have Health Anxiety, look it up (it's just re-termed hypochondria)
I 100% have health anxiety after suffering a traumatic event. I'm gonna be popping those anti anxiety pills like they're molly lol
I know right, it's terrible 😟
a lot of what their describing feels like the DMT your brain releases when you die, which pretty much allows you to hallucinate while you're dying and why people say they see god. it's the thing people want to see or expect to see when they die, see it, and then somehow survive and spread the story of these beings that apparently exist.
Well hell I guess nothing and dryer lint floating everywhere will exist when I die 😂

Thank you to Anthony and the team for having me on the show and giving me the chance to talk about a very emotional event. You guys are awesome and the videos are too!
Thank you for sharing your story 💖
Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m so glad your outlook on life has improved ❤️
It was really eye opening to hear your story. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for being brave and sharing your story
Thank you for sharing your experience and spreading awareness about addiction and the dangers of alcohol!
I also started drinking at a young age (some family would let me have a little alcohol even when I was in elementary school) and it became a big problem in my teen years. My acid reflux was so bad that I literally threw up every time I drank even one beverage and told myself it was fine. On weekends especially I would drink and smoke weed until I could just try to forget all my anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other psychological issues. I also ended up in the hospital with horrible alcohol poisoning, not to mention all the times I put myself in danger and embarrassment being blackout drunk.
I'm so glad that I've learned I don't need alcohol to relax, have fun, or cope with stress. Therapy, dietary changes (whole food plant-based), and self-discovery have really turned my life around. I may still have a drink or 2 once every few months, but the desire has definitely diminished. I hope it gets easier for you, my friend!
I get frank. I was drugged and fell and busted my skull. I was clinically dead. I remember watching behind myself as the back door of the ambulance opened and the closest hospital denied me. I watched a hospital turn me away while I was clinically dead.
*Edit: people have reaffirmed exactly what happened. So while I had no pulse or brain activity, I knew exactly what happened. I saw everything.
But the rest of the time it is just emptiness. There was just a loss in time. It has made me more afraid of death and I used to be INCREDIBLY suicidal. But knowing it just stops like a blackout is absolutely terrifying.
Another.
I was in an induced coma for ten days last December. I had so many dreams(for lack of a better term), it felt like months. I am still recovering and I may never be the same as I was before the coma. It's very frustrating. I wish there were more resources for people in my situation. I can find lots for people that had a traumatic brain injury, but not many for people that were put into an induced coma. And since it wasn't from covid (I had a really severe case of RSV), I feel like I'm the odd woman out.
No wonder Eben had back pain, he carried this

@@loveforeva12 that's dumb
@@loveforeva12 I was with him right up until he started describing things as angelic, and citing common Born-Again Christian imagery. I was just nodding along too after that point.
@@ianrose6218 What exactly did he say that evoked christian imagery? Are u sure u didn't just project your own references by hearing certain words like angels? I mean he didn't exactly describe how these things really looked like other than saying everything looked ideal and alive and beautiful. He didn't say he saw little naked blond babies with wings floating or anything. But that's what I imagined. And i also got a little skeptical when I heard those things but then I started questioning my own reaction and thinking; wait, I didn't get enough information to write him off like that, maybe i'm projecting my own references and impressions of religious imagery on his experience
My grandma was in a coma for 14 days with covid right before the pandemic, we didn’t know it was covid at the time but it was so scary and sad. My grandma raised me as a child so it was like losing my mother. The doctors tell you they might wake up but they can’t really tell the brain function until they wake up. But she spent 6 months in rehabilitation learning to use her voice again, every muscle that existed in her body, and it was so traumatic for her. But I’m so so so beyond grateful we didn’t lose her.
What Eben describes is a bit like what my mum described to me when her heart stopped beating during an operation. First, she says, it was like an out of body experience and she actually saw the doctors trying to revive her and then she recalls walking through a sunlit valley and then a voice telling her it was not her time yet at which point the doctors got her heart back online.
a man told my mom that exact same thing that happened to him on the table, “it is not your time yet”
I was in a coma at the age of 10 for over a week after sledding in a graveyard and smashed my head into a tree. My head was cracked in half with my brain exposed. The Drs told my parents I may not wake up and if I did I would most likely have many disabilities. To everyone’s surprise I came back fine. The only side affect is I have lost a lot of memories from the age of 10 and younger. I was definitely blessed and was given another chance of life.
Those ghost were just not having it lol. I’m glad you’re okay. My dad did the same thing with a light pole as a child. He’s so proud of his scar
Oh wow. I slid head first into a tree when I was 3 but luckily all I had was a minor concussion
I think the higher being heard the drs and said nah we gonna be fine
oh wow. how did they heal your skull like could they even bandage it up as the brain was in the way
Sorry to hear bout that experience. But on a sidenote: Who the hell goes sledding in a graveyard??
My father was put into a coma in 2017 after the doctors found 34 blood clots in his body, he was stuck in a coma for about 4 weeks. Only coming out for a few minutes. I was so worried that he was gonna die and being in middle school didn't help at all because I just pretended like nothing was wrong. I'd be staying with my family members while I rarely got to see my mom because she was staying with my dad. I'm extremely fortunate to have a lucky life and not have to deal with traumatic events. So I will say this is the most traumatic event of my life. My father eventually came out, and it's been a little over 3 years since he did, he's doing so much better. I know that most people are not going to read this so if you do thank you for listening. Have an amazing day, you deserve it.
i'm so sorry you had to go through that !! i'm so glad your father is better and i hope you never have to deal with anything like that again, i hope you're doing well !!
How did your dad even live-
@@Rose-wg7hm Wtf is your problem??
Sorry you had to go through that, especially at such a young age, & I'm sending my blessings to you family!
I’m glad u and ur dad are doing better! Hope u have a great day! 😊
Frank: *just is blackness*
Eben: *goes to heaven*
I’ve never been in a coma, but I can relate to what Frank said about near death experiences and suicidal ideation. I have chronic pain and it made me feel suicidal in the early years of it. Then one day I had a car accident where my car flipped and I walked away without a scratch (no one was hurt). And I’ve never returned to that place of ideation in the same way since, because in the second the accident happened, I clearly thought, ‘I’m not ready to end life.’
I love how two of them were basically asleep, and Eben’s brain just did super weird shit.
It wasn’t his brain, he was brain dead at this point and his mind was to damaged to process he was on the verge of dying. most likely did at some point this is how most people describe heaven.
@@kaizz2228 probably was a DMT trip, when we’re dying it’s one of the times when we produce the most of it.
@@kaizz2228 how did he wake up from brain death? I mean I'm pretty sure he was only in a coma
@@loganmoon380 Exactly. There's no coming back from brain death.
@@loganmoon380 Apparently his story isn't really true. Some people in the comments explained.
If Eben wasn’t a neurosurgeon before all this people probably just assumed he’s bullsh!ting.
He is. Either that or some sort of death hallucination. Those can occur after death, for some it’s just black for others it’s something like this guy described.
@@Alexa-so4jh “well the thing is Eben was brain dead so he couldn’t of had hallucinated, he has a video explaining it and going through his medical records”
@@Alexa-so4jh cant have a dream when you are brain dead my guy lol
he IS bullsh!ting or he was put under some heavy drug that made him hallucinate at some point when he regained a minimum of consciousness.
no i still think he's bullshiting
Eben's experience reminded me of a DMT(or other psychedelic) trip and I think that people should do more research about that, especially knowing that the brain creates DMT. He said that it felt like years and he said it felt more real than real life which is common for people who take DMT
My god Eben has such a way of explaining things it was kind of beautiful.
If you do research on him it is all completely fabricated. It sounds nice because it is a story not reality.
Eben's description made me feel happy. I find it funny that it seems like Frank and Eben had such opposite experiences, yet each of them had the exact one they needed to have a more positive outlook. Frank was struggling with suicidal thoughts, so he needed that non-existence experience to make him appreciate life more. Eben was a skeptic and he needed a spiritual experience to make him appreciate life more. So each one got what was best for them.
thats such a good point!!
this is beautifully said !
this makes me so happy, what a nice thought
Maybe thats death
That's pretty nice perspective. Though Eben was literally brain dead during his time and Frank was in chemically induced coma. So no wonder there were different results. Maybe Frank was just in the waiting room while Eben was already moved on.
Eben's brain was just like "oh shit he's dying, give him an Acid trip STAT!"
I mean yeah that’s basically how DMT works when dying
im no docter or anything but what if when he was in the coma it somehow released all his DMT chemicals from the brain and Caused a giant DMT Trip ?
Haha I just commented about how I had a simular experience on acid when I left my body.
@@ashash6866 thats honestly what I think may happen when we die. Just a neverending dmt trip.
I mean it ends when your brain turn into dust
Eben should try mushrooms or DMT the way he explains the profound experience he had is extremely similar to that of a trip.
He would take those and be like, man those are weak.
@@kilgoretrout4491fr or be like man I have been here before
Julia and Frank: It was pitch black and I could barely feel anything
Ebon: *My entire descriptive writing essay*
TW// TRANSPHOBIA IN REPLIES (can y'all just ignore em instead of replying lol they're only here to have fun and attention, deprive them of it)
I like how Julia clarified that the coma they fell into was not at all related to their gender reaffirming surgery and just a crazy coincidence, so as to not cause any fear among the trans folks that might be watching this video/ people about to go through the same surgery. It seems like a small thing but it's really helpful, especially as someone who has intense anxiety lol.
Any type of surgery carries risk, people tend to forget this.
The infection probably WAS from their surgery, but just because it was surgery in general not because of top surgery specifically.
@@missberyl I feel like, the lesions were probably developing even before they had the surgery. The surgery just happened to increase the risk I guess. Nonetheless my point being it wasn't entirely caused by the surgery like they said.
I'm so thankful for the clarification, my heart skipped a beat when they mentioned their top surgery, i already have enough anxiety about surgeries in general and being aware of people having such big issues specifically related to top surgery would make my anxiety even worse lol
its also scary to think that the lesions couldve just been there silently getting worse, and no one wouldve known unless julia got the surgery in the first place
no one:
Eben: *recites everything in pure detail like Doug Forcett*
Aye! I knew I’d find a Good Place reference here!
lmao is it just me or does Eben lowkey sound kinda like Michael
I canf wait to see how correct he is
@@janetsnakehole6225 oh my god now i can’t unhear it
More like a mixture of him and Bob Ross. Something about his voice is so soothing, and his descriptions are immaculate. I would read an entire book on his experiences in that world for sure.
The older guys description is very similar to what I had when I did 600ug of acid, 5 joints and mdma one night when I was 15. Pretty sure I overdosed on the mdma and nearly died the utterly intense pounding thing was one of the most prominent memories I have of it after I felt like I had died.
Whether eben's story was true or not, its just amazing hearing his story, and its clear that he appreciates life infinitely, because its really amazing to be in that dream especially for a month
i'd love to see "i spent a day with indigenous americans" because there are soooo many different indigenous cultures just in the US alone and we rarely ever get to hear about them and their struggles!
This is a brilliant idea
this!! it’s so important
yes!!
PLEASE id love an indigenous series with interviews with dif groups around the world
Yes!!! :)
I hope Eben’s experience was more then just an event that his brain experienced. I’m an extreme realist with almost no spiritual faith, which sucks bc it makes the idea of death and how small I am within the context of the universe and time, is really scary. I’d love for there to be more then just this physical moment.
Don't limit who you are and your desires to the idea of being a extreme realist, everyone that is alive does not yet know what comes after death.
You are the universe and the universe is you. Were all tied together in a way that is incomprehensible.
@@anything9072 i love that!!
I hope so as well. I lost my sister a year ago, and to think that this might have been something she experienced as she passed away is kinda soothing for me since I always worried if she was scared in that moment...
if you are dissatisfied with your spiritual outlook, go looking! be willing to try on new understandings! I know that there is more :)
That dude just got a glimpse of heaven….
Eben was so specific. If he truely went through that it’s so beautiful sounding 🦋 but scary as well ⭐️
It was bs
This got freaking *DEEP*
True
Your face reveal was amazing
Just like their coma
Every where I go i see your...um, head
In your mother...
jk
Or am I?.....
Eben: * explains his experience in great detail*
Bill Wurts: _you can make a religion out of this_
I know you’re only joking, but if you’re interested I have some information abt what his experience may be connected to. What he described is similar to what is depicted in Hinduism and western spirituality, and I believe what language the spirits were chanting or singing was light language. I think he was traveling through the different levels of consciousness, and the second and third was going deeper into his subconscious. Obviously I may be wrong, this is just speculation.
@@kandy1643 you are wrong, he was in heaven, the bible describes heaven as a place of peace, love, comunity AND WORSHIP. The music he heard was ANGELS WORSHIPPING god. You can come to this beautiful heaven and live with god for eternity IF you accept jesus christ as your lord and saviour! God loves you and wants you to be saved from hell, but you choose where your eternal destination will be
@@Name-wo4kd no, I’m not wrong. You realize other religions and beliefs exist other than Christianity..., right?
@@kandy1643 that doesn't make them right
@@Name-wo4kd doesn’t make your religion right either
You should totally do one where you interview people who say they were abducted by aliens. It would be so interesting to hear their story
I was in the ICU for 44 days in 2020 due to a spinal cord injury. While being there, I experienced several vivid hallucinations. I still remember them. I remember details of videos I watched during the time I was having these out of body experiences. I was talking to my family members about them thinking that it totally happened. I was in a hospital in Greenville North Carolina this entire time. Because of my hallucinations I thought at one point I was in Georgia, West Virginia, London, and even the McDonald’s drive-through. It so insane hearing Eden speak about people with near death experiences having out of body experiences. It is WILD.
I could tell Anthony was trying extra hard to understand Eben's experience 🤣
Someone needs to introduce him to drugs lmao
@@idkman2633 omg yeahhh maybe he should try ayahuasca lmaoo
Eben was very well spoken, clearly super intelligent and he also has a super nice voice. Also the description of his coma sounds a lot like a DMT trip.
That's exactly what I was thinking. It sounds incredibly similar to trip reports of DMT
That's because DMT is naturally produced inside brain while we sleep
Isn’t dmt made when your brain is dying. So quite literally he was in a dmt trip.
@@dorthyalice yeah there's two times when the amount of dmt produced is biggest, when we are Born and when we die
maybe one of the medicine or something he was given during the coma was similar to DMT (i’m not a doctor or do drugs and stuff but it’s just a theory)
Anthony before they started
Anthony: "Alright, so before we start. I'd like to get your pronouns so we don't make you uncomfortable."
Julia: "Oh yeah, that's perfectly fine. I use they/them pronouns."
Anthony: "Alright, how about you Frank?"
Frank: "I prefer He/Him."
Anthony: "Great! How about you Eben?"
Eben: *I AM EBEN*
So sorry to all that have suffered through this. You are very strong!
Funny story, when they were waking me up from a coma, I actually swung at the doctor when he was poking me, but then I went back under for 2 days, and I thought it was a weird dream.
the doctor: 👁️👄👁️💢
I don't mean to be rude, but it must have been really funny for the doctor to be like: "Oh they're awake... wait what're doin- square up then 😳"
Your body: HEY NO TOUCH! Okay back to sleep
@@user-ic6nm4ol4r the doctor just puts up his hands
@@user-ic6nm4ol4r I laugh my ass off about it. Once I found out it actually happened(it also happened in a different room than the one I wokeup in for good) I felt sooo bad for the doctor, but also I've always been proud of myself for that🤣🤣🤣 like, even when I'm coming out of a coma, I protecc and I also fucking atack🤣🤣🤣
I like how when the screen for the names show up its like: julia: they/them frank: he/him while eben is just eben. What are you eben? Eben: I am eben.
Eben is more powerful than we could ever possibly conceive
Finally the true gender has been revealed, we are all Eben
Eben is love, Eben is life
no what are your pronouns eben? Eben: eben.
Shout out to Eben
Gotta be one of my favourite genders 🙏
It makes me extremely happy to know that you are somewhat aware of the real world during a coma (from what I understand). A few months ago, we had to take my grandpa off of life support while he was in a coma. I had to say goodbye while he was in the coma. I was worried that he wouldn’t be able to hear me and the rest of the family, and that he would be scared or in pain. But hearing these stories help me think positively and think that he was happy and clam, he could hear us, and there was no pain.
I miss you grandpa 💙
Everyone is always so nice in all of Anthony’s video
I love how descriptive Eben was, it’s like he was telling a wondrous story
I don’t, I’m high asf rn and he makes no sense
I'm considered a pretty good writer, and ppl in my classes like my short stories, so I'm thinking about making a short story based on ebens-
@@mostsanemitskifan did you do it?
Same. I really like how he described all of his experience. It's almost like I was the worm.
I think he described it so well because he told it a hundred times. Probably accidentally changing it a little every time and making it more dramatic.
I would love a “I spent a day with recovering addicts” because people only see addicts as druggies whenever there’s many kinds of addictions and we are still people with a family and friends that r very hurt and need help not random druggies off the street
Edit: wow I didn’t think this would get attention thank you for caring about this it means a lot ❤️
And I would love to be interviewed for it. I am a recovering drug addict who's very young but done a lot of drugs and been addicted to many. I am currently am on methadone, clean off meth, heroin, and pills.
I am now a mother of 2 and very happily married, I want to end the stigma.
I also come from a family of drug addicts, who hoped I wouldn't end up like them, I did. But I want to change what people think of addicts. We aren't all bad people.
Yess could interview Taylor Nicole Dean if she want it that is
The reason why I would love this is because I was born was a disability meaning I’ve been on pain meds my entire life and was addicted to them as a kid and to my teen years and only recently started to recover tho I still have a long way to go. My sister was also an addict, actually almost everyone in my family has had addiction in some way whether they admit to it or not and it’s important to show it can happen to anyone and just because it doesn’t look like someone does they do and it affects everyone I wouldn’t mind doing an interview because my story is different than others but it’s still valid
You should talk to Jessica Kent on RUclips, she’s great:)
I won't be surprised if Eben has a book or course to sell.
Ebens description is so calming and fascinating. It really gives you some good old trust in life - and death. And the whole circle of it. That pain has an end. And that every problem is kind of... well, gone someday.
I regret nor being able to send an application, I would have loved to show the darker side of being in a come. I was in it for 19 days and had constant nightmares where I was being seriously hurt and killed, being in a coma can be an amazing experience for some people apparently and I’m happy not everyone in a come have such terrible nightmares. I love this series and I truly loved hearing how it was for others
I‘m really sorry for you and proud of u for staying strong!
I just wrote a comment about how Katie Piper said she had the same experience. I’m glad you are out of that and I hope you are doing better
I've heard more than a few cases like this.
Hi i was in a coma for two weeks in 2019 and I had a similar experience ...it was like a never ending nightmare that felt so very real and after waking up it took me a while to realize that those things didnt happen in reality...it was kind of a disturbing experience for me ...since the things I went through in my nightmares in the coma felt like a way of my brain to try to deal with my existing trauma...it was horrifying.. and Im more than thankfull I got a second chance and survived this... im so happy all my family and friends prayed for me and were there for me in this awful time ~~~
Omg same it was like I was fighting for my life in all these nightmares I was in my coma for almost 2 months
This is my favorite series on RUclips by far!
mine too
@@renab.7390 👍🏻
I love these interviews so much also!
same!!!
stopped watching for a bit idk why
i know thelast episode i watched was the mia khalifa one
comming back holy shit
all the new episodes are serious topics now
i appreciate anthony so much, he puts so much effort into his videos :)
I'm currently studying neuroscience at college and wow Eben was a FANTASTIC guest. He confirmed nearly all my theories about the universe and even has a more in-depth background in my field. I went into this field with the idea of life beyond and streamlined consciousness, so hearing that from Eben was so facsinating.
eben: reject humanity, BECOME WORM
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel like Eben went to heaven and back
I mean he did, he was brain dead so he couldn’t have hallucinated, he did a video about it where he went through his medical records
@@corneliogallo3250 brain dead? I’m not fully finished with the video yet but isn’t brain dead meaning dead? I just did a quick google search and it said that you’re not brain dead in a coma your brain dead when your dead but I didn’t look into it much so I don’t know for sure
@@person2602 no no not literally brain dead it’s just your brain can’t process anything and you basically black out or become “brain dead”
@@lizzynothere3788 oh that makes more sense lol.
Yeah I agree
I'm a stay at home mom and enjoy listening to your videos while cleaning my house. That way I don't feel alone while my daughter is in school and some of your videos my daughter can listen to as well. I like to expand her mind on so many things
I’ve read Dr. Alexander’s book Proof of Heaven!! It was really, really great! I love that I get to hear him speak about it now. Thank you, Anthony, for having him on this series!
"I spent a day with people with Depersonalization Derealization Disorder" could be very useful in helping spread awareness of the disorder.
yes!! not many people are educated on the disorder and it would be great to spread awareness about it
ive never heard of it. can someone elaborate?
@@wiwiwojdsjnskqkwldnf it basically feels like you're watching a movie, that's actually your life.
@@wiwiwojdsjnskqkwldnf Depersonalization and Derealization are two different things that happen (usually when triggered, but can happen randomly) when you have the disorder. Depersonalization is the feeling of detachment from yourself, and the feeling you don't control yourself, you can some times have the experience of feeling as if you are watching yourself from afar, or inside your body but with the feeling you have no control of it, even though you do. Sometimes when looking in a mirror you may not accept that what you see in the mirror (yourself) is real and that you don't remember looking like what you see, even though it is you. You may not be aware that you are able to talk until you start talking, but you may also feel like you didn't start talking because of the feeling you can control yourself and that you are not real. You feel like a robot, you feel like you can't control what you are doing.
Derealization is the detachment from the world, you may feel real, but the world around you feels artificial, people don't even seem real, you feel like you are trapped in a bubble, because of that sounds may be slightly drowned out, another example is feeling like there is a fog or veil between you and reality, sometimes people see a lack of vividness and emotional color, they may have familiar places feel alien and bizarre, sometimes it is described as viewing the world through a TV screen. Fake but there.
DPRD (Depersonalization Derealization Disorder) is very common with interpersonal abuse, E.g. Childhood abuse, mainly focusing on domestic neglect, abandonment, and childhood emotional abuse. Only about two percent (2%) of people are diagnosed with the disorder, though 50% may have experienced a symptom once before due to intense stress.
Yes! I just recently heard of this and have been wanting to be more educated in the matter
him destroying the roof gets me every single time.
@Lucy Lightowler nah
@Lucy Lightowler no way it’s real 🙄🖐
@Lucy Lightowler wait what
@Lucy Lightowler ....next you’re gonna tell me Santa isn’t real
@Lucy Lightowler what so is the tooth fairy not real?
Why am I watching this, I could LITERALLY pass out just hearing about the incident (no like fr though I barely can breathe but I really want to watch this video)
You always ask the best questions.
You need to do a “I spent a day with previous mental hospital patients” because I’ve been to many mental hospitals and I have a LOT of stories and crazy things I’ve done or had happen to me and it would make a good video if you interviewed people like me who have been through that before
Hb workers
That'd be so interesting!
I just started my first Internship at a mental hospital and trust me every day I work there is so overwhelming. I would love to see this as an episode
I unfortunately shared my experience with some friends and recently one of my friends had some serious suicidal ideation and refused to get help because of my experience at our local hospital. Unfortunately, now when I deal with suicidal thoughts, I also lean towards not getting emergent help because of my horrible mental hospital experience. (I'm in Florida, USA).
Rihhhh psych ward stories are the best tho,, some of mine are fucked up but I got hella funny ones too lol
Eben’s description completely just blew my mind, it was so descriptive. I just can’t imagine how it felt.
Most definitely!
well he basically had a dmt trip
Fascinating! Thanks!
