I actually did. When I was 18 I got into a group fight against some local rival H.S. kids. There were about 10 of us and 10 of them. After all was said and done, they were running and I was bleeding. I got stabbed 3 times; once right below my right art through my rib cage, once in my stomach, and once in my thigh. They landed a medi-vac helicopter and had to clear out the movie theater so they could land the chopper.

While in the air, I heard the flight tech say, "We're losing him!". By that time I was in severe shock and had already lost a lot of blood (some still stains the walk area at the outdoor mall as a macabre reminder). Once I heard him say that I honestly remember seeing my life flash before me like some grotesque slideshow. I remember seeing my family, friends, and distant memories. I don't recall seeing a light or a tunnell but I did see myself from outside my body.

I was kneeling down next to my body and I could actually see myself unconcious. To be 100% honest, it was one of the most peaceful things I have ever encountered. I was at total peace with myself.

I finally arrived at the hospital with a punctured lung, ruptured instestines, and a severed ligament in my thigh. They slapped 89 internal stitches and 36 staples into me and I finally recovered. A grim reminder of my childhood.

So yes, I have experienced one and it was the most peacful thing ever. That is one of the reasons I don't fear death. Peace and tranquility without a hint of fear or pain.
People who have near death experiences often report that they were outside their bodies during the episode. They almost universally report feelings of peace, just like you.
