Have you read the book "The Boy Who Came Back From Heaven"? It was an inspirational book written about a 6 year old boy that was in a car crash in 2004 and had a near-death experience. He is now saying he made it all up!

Almost five years after the book was published and more than a million copies were sold, Alex disavowed the book in an open letter to Christian bookstores and described his near-death experience as a fabrication. As a result, Tyndale House removed the book from print, and Christian bookstores removed it from their shelves.

In the accident, Alex suffered various injuries, including a severe spinal injury, severe neck injuries and brain trauma, and was left a quadriplegic.
