Cheating Death: Over the edge and back again

You've heard the term "near death' experience, but imagine having an actual death experience then coming back to tell the story.

That's what happened to a high school football referee. He collapsed on the field with no heartbeat for nearly three minutes. Watch as he tells our Dr. Sanjay Gupta what he saw as he slipped away to the other side.

Program Note: Join Dr. Sanjay Gupta as he examines the medical miracles that are saving lives in the face of death on “Cheating Death,” Sat. & Sun. 8 p.m. ET.
