Looking up his biography and came across this, doubt that many would have survived!
Read more here: http://www.bnd.com/living/liv-column...#storylink=cpyA well-known fitness buff and health-food devotee, Walker, then 44, was enjoying a day of skiing on the slopes of Mammoth Mountain, north of Bishop, Calif. On one run, he suddenly lost his footing and crashed. One of his ski poles wound up piercing his chest up to its ring or basket (about 4 inches), puncturing the ventricle of his heart.
“It was a freak accident, just one of those crazy, crazy things,” he told the Associated Press two weeks after the near-fatal mishap. “To my knowledge it hasn’t happened to another skier. I was traveling fast on difficult, steep terrain and took a spill. I wound up impaled on the sharp end. All my weight was on it. I could see the hole it had made as I rolled off it.
“Spread out in the snow, getting weaker by the minute, I said, ‘God, I’m in real trouble. There’s only one way I’m going to pull out of this. That’s with your help.’ I’m thoroughly convinced that’s why I’m here now.” For an agonizing two hours, doctors wouldn’t have given a plugged nickel for his chances as an ambulance rushed him semiconscious 45 miles to Northern Inyo Hospital in Bishop.
“They said when I got there that as far as they were concerned, I was a dead man,” he said years later during a lengthy interview about his life for the Archive of American Television. “Two doctors pronounced me dead, and I was out of body. I was in that spirit body. They tell us we have two bodies, and we really do. And that spirit body’s got this one beat all to heck. You’re more alive, more alert, more aware. You know things you never knew before, and that spirit body, there’s no aches and pains. I mean, very comfortable.
I realized I wasn’t all that concerned about going back, but I thought, ‘There’s something that I came to Earth to do and haven’t done it and I gotta go back and take another crack at it. And don’t ask me what that was, ’cause I don’t know. Maybe it’s the things I’m doing now. But I said, ‘God, I need your help. I wanna go back and take another crack at it.’”
That’s when God or fate or whatever you want to call it stepped in in a big way.

We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
Ergo, religion.
rac·ist
rāsəst/noun
a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
If the answer is yes, you are a racist.

He was luckier than sonny bono the former hippie icon. He shouldn't have sold out the hippies. Karma.
sounds of silence!
Again I must make you look like a blithering idiot!
