Not everyone gets a second chance at life. But for teenager Liliana from Arizona, her experience of dying was just the beginning of a whole new world.
When she tried drugs for the first time, she suffered a rare allergic reaction that caused her brain and heart to briefly stop working. Liliana posted a video on TikTok describing what happened in the afterlife. This was her first public description of her near-death experience.
In the video, she wore black eyeliner, a black sweatshirt, and some pink streaks in her hair. According to her, she witnessed a tunnel of white light and spent some time in the afterlife. Now she hopes to let the world know exactly what she saw and why more people should appreciate life at this moment.
“Okay, so I’ve died before,” the teen from Arizona admitted during her first TikTok video on her near-death experience. The video has since been viewed more than five million times. “Let me just tell you what’s true and not true.”
Liliana said that she was still able to think a little bit when she died. She lost her sense of sight and touch but kept her sense of hearing.
“You lose desires, but you still be thinking a little bit,” she said.
She added that witnessing a beam of light when you die is also true.
“You leave your body, but it’s not like a hovering over everyone and watching the situation. It’s like you become another being. I can’t f**king describe it,” she continued, adding: “The light parts true.”
Liliana had this incredible but terrifying experience when she smoked marijuana for the first time in 2018. She had been warned about drug abuse but still risked her life to experience a high.
“I took one hit and then started losing cognitive brain functions,” she said. “I couldn’t focus or sit upright, and then my friend offers me water, and I said, ‘What’s water?’ and then passed out on the floor.”
When the paramedics arrived, Liliana could hear them trying to revive her, but she had already fallen into what she described as a tunnel that then turned into white light.
According to Liliana, you leave your body at the end of the tunnel and return to what she referred to as “the source.” However, Liliana confirmed that she did not meet a divine being or experience anything like heaven or hell.
“I didn’t meet God, there wasn’t heaven and hell, there was source,” she wrote, noting that “there’s a lot of spinning and some shapes.”
She added, “It is scary, but in the last stages, you feel nothing, there’s no fear, happiness, or sadness. You become another source of energy, and you’re not having human thoughts. It’s really hard to picture it without experiencing it, but it felt like an eternity.”
She said that there was just a lot of spinning and some abstract shapes at the end of the tunnel. In the final stages of this passage, you don’t feel any emotions or have human thoughts anymore. Instead, you become another energy source as part of eternity.
The paramedics eventually forced her to throw up, which allowed her to breathe again. Once she was breathing again, she returned from the dead.
“I didn’t ingest anything near enough for me to become high and trip,” she clarified. “I wasn’t breathing. I didn’t have a heartbeat.”
Liliana came back to life when the paramedics forced her to throw up and she could finally breathe again. She clarified that her near-death experience was not a high or a trip.
She had completely lost consciousness, wasn’t breathing, and didn’t even have a heartbeat. This was a true near-death experience. Liliana was very brave to share with the world what happened to her.
