A GLIMPSE OF ETERNITY
One man’s encounter 
with life beyond death.
Ian McCormack
‟s story
 As told by Jenny Sharkey
“A Glimpse of Eternity” is the incredible true story of one man’s encounter with death
and the realms beyond it. Stung by five box jellyfish while diving off the coast of Mauritius, Ian McCormack later died in hospital and was dead for 15-20 minutes.During this time he experienced both hell and heaven and came back to tell the story! Dying was his doorway to true life and his story is transforming lives around the world as it touches on some of the deepest questions we all eventually ask.
Dedicated to our children, who are our pride and joy,and to all those children of the worldwho are yet to find their home with the Father.
“Trust in Go
d; trust also in me.
In my Father’s house are many rooms;
if it were not so, I would have told you.
I am going there to prepare a place for you.” 
- JesusJohn 14:2 (NIV)

Ian McCormack's story is profoundly moving, and completely credible. Although I amfamiliar with Ian's story, I found that reading this short book caused me to questionagain the ultimate purpose and destiny of my own life. Hopefully, other readers will beprompted to ask the same questions.As an experienced General Practitioner, I have no doubt that Ian died following multiplestings from Box Jellyfish. The Box Jellyfish is one of the most dangerous venomouscreatures in the world. Death from Box Jellyfish stings can occur within five minutes.Death is due to respiratory failure, caused by paralysis of the respiratory centre in thebrain, or to direct effects on the heart, causing electrical conduction disturbances andparalysis of the cardiac muscle. Patients who have been stung by Box Jellyfishfrequently become unconscious before leaving the water.In my opinion Ian McCormack sustained a cardiac arrest, due to the toxic effects of BoxJellyfish stings. No blame is attached to his death, since a considerable time hadelapsed before the antitoxin could be administered to Ian in hospital, making theprognosis extremely poor.Ian's account of Jesus Christ, Heaven and Hell are completely in accord withthe Biblical descriptions. In fact, like all supernatural events, the truth of these eventsshould be checked against the truth of the Scriptures, as the Bereans did (Acts 17:11)*.Ian later became an ordained minister in 1991, and has travelled widely all over theworld speaking about his experience. Ian has made it his lifetime's goal to see as manypeople as possible end up in heaven, rather than hell, which is the reason for histravelling. His motive is not financial.After hearing Ian speak, he so greatly impressed me that I co-authored two books onNear Death Experiences, and I now travel widely speaking on Near Death Experiencesmyself. I sincerely hope that as readers are confronted with the reality of heaven and
