People that Remembered their Past Lives Continued
Ryan Hammonds, a ten-year-old boy, believed that he was a Hollywood extra turned agent in his past life. He even appeared on The Today Show to discuss his memories. Initially, Ryan's mother, Cindy, was skeptical when Ryan told her that he used to be someone else. However, their perspective changed when they discovered a photo from the making of Mae West's first movie, "Night After Night." Ryan pointed to a man in the photo named Marty Martin. Although Martin had no speaking lines in the film, Ryan accurately recalled 55 different details about Martin's life. Ryan spoke about having two sisters, trips to Paris, five marriages, and living on Roxbury Drive with Mae West. He also mentioned missing an orange soda called "TruAde." Dr. Jim Tucker, who documents cases of children remembering past lives at the University of Virginia, investigated Ryan's claims and confirmed their accuracy. Ryan's memories were not things that could easily be found on the internet. For instance, Martin's love for orange soda, living on Roxbury Drive in Beverly Hills, having two sisters, and spending time in Paris with his fifth wife were all confirmed.
