I ‘died’ after family’s horror car crash – when I woke mum told me dad had passed…I knew already as I saw him in heaven
A MAN who was declared medically dead three times after a horror car crash at the age of eight claims he saw his father in heaven.
Landon Kemp from Charlotte, North Carolina, was involved in a major collision with an ambulance on October 19, 1997.
The Pontiac Sunfire in which Kemp and his parents Andy and Julie were travelling from church was T-boned by the emergency vehicle.
Andy died in the accident and his eight-year-old son had to be revived at the scene, on the way to the hospital, and when he was at the Carolina’s Medical Center.
Kemp believes that on each occasion he went to heaven and that on one of these times, he saw his father before he was told of his death.
‘I SAW HIM’
In an interview shared on YouTube his mother who suffered from broken ribs, a collapsed lung and a concussion, has detailed the moment her child revealed he had been to heaven.
After being in a coma for two weeks, Kemp opened his eyes and to the shock of his doctors had not sustained any brain damage.
However, his mother Julie knew she had to tell him about the death of his father.
“I didn’t want to hurt him anymore. So I asked him, Landon, do you know where your Dad is at?” she recalled.
“And he told me, ‘Yes I know where he’s at – I saw him in heaven.”
Kemp who is now 35 also claims to have seen other dead people including his two unborn siblings and Jesus.
Each time he went to heaven it was different, he explained.
“I remember being able to see my dad and his friend Olan Palmer who had passed away less than a month before he did, also in a car accident,” Kemp said.
“And Olan’s son, Neal Palmer, who had died on a four-wheeler years before.”
He claims that no one spoke but that they all stood around each other until he was revived.
Just being in heaven, I guess you know your own or you know who everyone is.

Kemp also reportedly saw two other people who he had no prior knowledge of but knew they were family when he saw them.
“He looked over to me and he said ‘Oh mum by the way I forgot to tell you I saw your other two kids,'” Julie recalled.
“I just looked at him because I wasn’t sure what he was talking about.”
She revealed in the interview that before her son was born she had suffered two miscarriages which neither she nor her husband ever mentioned to their child.
“I knew that they were my siblings even though no one had ever told me about them,” Kemp said.
“Just being in heaven, I guess you know your own or you know who everyone is.”
On his third visit to heaven, Kemp says Jesus came to him and instructed him to return to Earth to “be a good Christian and tell others about him.”
‘SPIRIT REALM’
While it is rare for people to believe they have seen things fro a higher place after a near-death-experience, others have shared their stories.
A mum-of-three who died for 40 minutes detailed last year what she saw as doctors were reviving her.
She claims something “magical” happened and she was “brought back” to life.
In 2021, a 55-year-old man who died when his heart stopped during an operation has since claimed that he became separate from his body before he was revived and was “in the spirit realm.”
“I knew I had died. I was separate from my body. Then I just went to sleep and I woke up, alive and the bleeding had stopped,” he said.
Meanwhile, two other women claimed that they have also seen heaven and that one is excited to return.
