A description of the experience
Dr Robert Crookall – More Astral projections
Case No. 273 Mr F.W. ”Parr" of Bexleyheath, sent the following to the Daily Sketch (Oct. 5, 1960).
I submit an account of a personal experience.
Place-an Army barracks room.
Year-1947.
Finding my 'thinking self' suspended in mid-air over my body should have been rather a shock, but all the time I felt it to be quite natural, and not at all unpleasant. Indeed I found the buoyant feeling that accompanied my apparent weightless state most interesting.
If I thought of a given position to the left, I instantly moved left, if to the right, I moved right, and so on without any effort whatsoever.
I went into the corridor, where I observed someone had left a light on. I returned to my bunk and there found my body lying in peaceful repose. At first I just thought this rather odd, but soon panic seized me as I realized the implications of the situation and wondered how to get back 'inside'?
A swift black falling sensation followed. I remember no more until the morning.
Shortly after 'Wakey, Wakey !' a Sergeant came round demanding, ''Who left a light on in the corridor last night?"
