A guy in Michigan has a heck of a story to tell: he was dead for 20 minutes!

He was electrocuted when the metal ladder he was carrying hit a power line.

The 20-year-old was healthy and fit and emergency room doctors say they refused to give up – even though he showed no signs of life.

After 20 minutes of trying, they finally got his heart going again.

Doctors say it’s a double miracle: not only is he alive, he didn’t lose any brain function.
