This may sound incredible, but 24-year-old Justin Smith attests that this is the truth: He had memories of his life when he was still inside the womb of his mother!
Smith, a worship leader at Liberty University's Thomas Road Baptist Church, posted a video on his Facebook page, recalling the things he saw and felt while still inside his mother.
Smith said he felt compelled to share his story when his mom posed a question to him and his sister about their earliest memory and after watching a video about pro-choice and abortion, CBN News reported.
Smith said he told his mom, "I think I remember when I was inside you," shocking her.
Groping for the right words to describe his memories, Smith said, "I remember being in like this opaque, bluish light and I see my arms out in front of me, like silhouetted in front of me and so I'm in this kind of like blue kind of, I didn't use this, ethereal, but I'll use it now sort of feeling I'm sort of like floating, right.
"There's this big bright light in front of me and see my arms and I hear voices of people, talking, kind of mumbled though...and that's the whole thing that's all I remember. But it's very distinct I still remember it. I still remember it now," he said.
He said his mother was "freaked out" by his revelation.
His mom told him earlier that when she was 20 weeks pregnant with him, doctors told her she had a tumour the size of a grapefruit on her ovary and that it was harming the baby.
She underwent emergency surgery to remove the tumour—an experience that Smith also recalled.
"They opened her up, took me and the uterus, while I was still in the uterus, pulled me out and set me on top of her stomach under this operating light for the duration of the surgery and they couldn't put her under for it because that would have endangered me. And so she's lying awake," he said.
"There's a curtain at her waist and she's looking straight up at his huge surgery light and there's doctors and nurses all around talking, 'scalpel, sutures, whatever."
His mother had never told him about this surgery, which proves that he really experienced the event that happened.
Smith's video has been viewed by thousands online.
