The Miracle of Alex Malarkey

Kevin Malarkey's car accident resulted in his son Alex suffering from severe injuries, including an internal decapitation, leading to a two-month coma. Alex's miraculous recovery captured public attention, particularly after he described experiences of an afterlife filled with angels and a visit with Jesus, which resulted in the best-selling book 'The Boy Who Came Back From Heaven.' This book, co-authored with his father, fueled a genre of near-death experiences and sold over a million copies, attracting both acclaim and skepticism. However, years later, Alex publicly denounced the claims in the book, revealing that he fabricated the story for attention, which led to its removal from publication and a fallout within his family.
