This is a discussion of reports of a sensed presence felt by mountain climbers, sailors, Polar Explorers and the like who get themselves caught up in life threatening situations and come close to the brink of death. In such situations, there is often a sensed presence, which may be seen as another person there with you, or just merely felt—a strong feeling no doubt that there is someone else with you, guiding you, comforting you, instructing you and giving you strength to carry on when otherwise hope seems lost. Is there a natural explanation for such reports, or do some of them defy rational explanation and require a paranormal explanation? We go over reports in Geiger's book and also from his forum he set up to allow people around the world to share their experiences with a saving presence (https://thirdmanfactor.igloocommunities.com/forums).
