This happened early in January this year, my fmaily and I went on a trip to Geelong (Australia) on one of the days there we went to a rainforest called Erskin Falls.

It was a busy day that day, it was a really hot summers day and the lakes in the Rainforest were very high.

When we reached the actual rainforest after a long walk of stairs we were standing on a low balcany. Under us was the main lake which was at least 4 metres deep. Suddenly someone knocked me and I fell over the railing and landed in the water.

I didn't take a breath and couldn't see and was struggling to stay alive. But then I blacked out.

And suddenly I was standing on the rocks by the lake. A crowd of people were kneeling near me. I looked down and realized that I was looking at myself.

A crowd of people including my family were crowding around me checking my pulse. I had turned a grey/blue color. I was soaked and I heard the guy checking my pulse say that I was jsut barely alive. I startd to move closer and realized it was harder than anything. I sort of floated as I moved my foot and found it hard to move without feeling weightless. I made my way to the open side of the crowd and bent down to look at myself.

I was in panic mode and thought I was dead. As I bent down, I felt a weird energy in my gut that told me I was in the wrong place.

I thought it was my imagination going wild and then the fact that everything was a dream hit my mind. But it wasn't. A man was trying to get my heart started properly again, I reached out to grab myself when suddenly I was pulled towards myself and suddenly I found myself opening my eyes to see a bunch of people leaning over me asking me if I was ok.

I never told anyone what happened but I know I had an Out of body experience that day.
