Nobody is saying this guy didn't experience something. But the experience itself proves nothing about the existence of an afterlife.
It's proof enough to him.
Truth is a personal fact that cannot always be demonstrated.
Plenty of people that experience NDE have no question that their experience was real.
How many people do you know that claim their dreams are real?
That’s just it, though.
Many theists claim to have had “personal experiences” and want the rest of us to accept that as proof.
Personal experiences are only truly “proof” to those who “experienced” them.
Once while working A&E I had a patient brought in who was adamant he was being chased by a small man with big teeth and red skin.
That was proof to him. The fact that he was higher than a kite at the time didn’t matter. Should I have believed him just because he was so certain and wanted me to believe?
