Diary

23 July 2024.

We've just gone on another extreme swim. My wife Irina and I went to the river together. About a ten-minute walk from our house flows the Voronezh River with its picturesque banks. When we went swimming, clouds were gathering in the sky. While we were swimming, it started to rain and we heard a thunderstorm approaching. A strong wind was blowing, it was warmer in the water than above the water. I am not a supporter of risking our lives and I believed that it is better not to swim in a thunderstorm. Irina didn’t want to get out of the water, because it was warmer in it. I crawled ashore and began to persuade Irina to go home, because staying in the river during a thunderstorm was dangerous. Irina looked at me and tried to convince me that the storm would pass by and wanted me to continue swimming with her. And suddenly she saw how my three-dimensional image separated from me, like a white hologram, and moved straight towards her, simultaneously decreasing in size and increasing in the number of copies of me. Having reached her, it entered into her. And she was very frightened, because she had never seen anything like this before and began to talk in detail about this unusual phenomenon. What do you think it was? I still managed to convince my wife to get out of the river and go home, when very loud thunderclaps were heard above our heads. Cold, heavy rain and hail painfully lashed our shivering from the cold bodies, giving us a massage. We came home and warmed up by eating warm pea soup.
