Did not know who Graham Nicholls is, so looking into it brought me to this video:

Looks like what he calls as OBE, I’d call falling into a trance or entering “shamanic Journeying”.
His experience in the video sounded similar to the one I had - years ago, when in a meditative state I suddenly fell into a spontaneous trance in which I was swallowed by a giant wave.
That was the eve of the 2004 tsunami which hit Thailand.
After that, for a few days staying in a light trance - in which you are partly here, partly there (in another dimension) painting ‘spirit canoes’ to guide the souls “home” as they seemed totally confused and disoriented about what had happened.
Only later did I learn that my cousin’s husband and their son had died in that event.
So yes, his experience does sound genuine and those are the kind of stories the old folk used to tell each other all-the-time.

But why would he see a Saami man in his ‘OBE visions’, if he is not related?
Perhaps it was a prompting from his own guidance to look further into experiences relating to the shamanic multidimensional reality.
