In this Thanatos TV original interview, Gerhard Schug (Germany) talks about his experiences during a ‘hellish’ near-death experience. We also discuss the insights that the experience triggered, perceptions of angels and reincarnation.
Gerhard Schug lives under extremely difficult physical conditions – cervical spine injury with paralysis, severe lung disease, Parkinson’s, heart attack, depression. After the loss of a beloved daughter, he attempted suicide, was rescued and, during his stay in intensive care, had a ‘hellish experience’ that changed his life.
Today, despite his physical problems, he radiates optimism, is a loving grandfather and faces all further developments with a deep faith in God. He is convinced of life after death.

Impressive experience and impressive man
Sometimes we have to experience hell in order to find the path to heaven.
Thank you for sharing your story. From Canada
So even after this experience he still don't believe that Jesus Christ is our saviour?
Hell was really intense? Who would've thought 🤔
Well my friends, you don’t “end up in Hell” during a near death experience… and 🫵🏻 ONLY DROP ☠️ DEAD ONCE.
Godbless you for sharing this with us ❤
I had one when I was young, I woke up in hell as a child, I was a child at the time of this dream, for some reason I was in my underwear and I was in this long ravine. Instead of water it had black liquid, could have been blood I’m not sure but there were these worms resembling grubs, they were brown and shaped like an NFL football. For whatever reason I could not get them off of me, they would attack eachother just to eat pieces of me. They couldn’t die and when I got 1 off, 2 more would jump on me, the sky was dark and I saw a giant eye, a flaming eye in the middle of this ravine, it was floating in the sky, not sure if it saw me but I just knew I was In a pit and that this was my forever. I wasn’t sad or mad or anything, just confused. I wasn’t even traumatized by the worms. I was just so curious why I was there. I think hell is scary because some people don’t know that they’re there. Just that they’re in pain and it won’t stop. It’s like air. Air never ends or never stops and that’s what hell was like. It never stopped and you knew there was nothing you can do.
God doesn't send people to hell, they send themselves.

Do people of other religions see the "Devil" Jesus etc..? Boodhists see Boodha, Muslims see Allah, Americans see cheese burgers and Hollywood etc,…
Thanks a lot! May God bless you and yours! ❤
We'd all go there if not for Christ's mercy and sacrifice. Praise and thanks be to him.
I do not want to live anymore.But I am afraid to end up in hell.I ask God everyday to take my life, but HE does not…
It was just a dream because he didn't die.
Thank you have helped me so much. l am in my 80s and have similar health problems. Your story is important to people like me. Thanyou.
This is simply a case of human overlay. There is no hell, but sadly we have been conditioned by our human infrastructure to believe that such things as hell and punishment are a reality. When we leave these man-made doctrines behind we find peace. We are simply beings having a human experience. Ending one's self doesn't take us anywhere but to God's love and home. We are here to experience both good and bad as to enable self and universal growth. It's when we understand and remember this that we are truly set free. There is not judgment. If he'd had a longer experience, he would have seen the light- regardless of his idea to leave this earth.
Jesus is only way to god! God is the way the truth and life no one comes to the father except thru the son!
Himmel eller Helvede er ikke et sted,men en tilstand.Du kan enten være i Himlen,eller helvede mens du er her,det
En indre eller mental oplevelse.☯️nær Gud,eller langt væk.👍👎
There is no such place
I am so sorry that you suffert so much. I am praying for you. Love. LYNE. ❤❤❤❤❤😊
Mr. Heumer is a very kind and effective interviewer. Excellent discussion.
Speak to those in remote areas who have not had any contact with GOD and religions. Who have their own beliefs and see what they have witnessed when having a near death experience.
He was raised Catholic. Well that's it. The mind is conjuring up imaginary from his experience's. He has not gone to another place. Its in his mind. I dream vividly and my dreams feel so real that its like I am living another life. And that happens most nights so I can see how powerful the mind can be.
A Japanese devil?
Accepting things with confidence takes humility and courage – respect for this man's honesty and fortitude
The tarot cards the angel cards same thing they're really demonic that's a no-go being a Catholic second no-go and if I were him I would try and get to a Healer there's this woman somebody was telling me about her everybody that she torches gets healed it's something to consider
Jesus Christ loves you more than you can comprehend call out to him today before its too late. Eternity is a long time. The devil owns the fence.. Only two choices Jesus Christ or the lake of fire
Strange. The experience is not very biblical. The devil doesn't rule hell nor gives orders around. He is just "another guy" suffering the consequences of his actions
Para no ir al infierno debes aceptar a Jesucristo como tu único y suficiente Salvador, y seguirlo, arrepentirte de tus pecados y perdonar a todas las personas que te ofendieron. Debes confesarlo con tus labios y pedirle que te guíe en su camino. Solo hay dos caminos, el cielo y el infierno, la reencarnación no existe.
Aceptar a Jesus, obedecerlo en todo, alejarte del pecado es el camino para ir al cielo y salvarte de la condenación eterna.
