Is This Boy’s Memory of a Past Life Real? [VIDEO]

Ryan is a typical 10-year-old boy, except for one thing:  He has memories from a past life.

His mother, Cyndi, tells NBC it all started when the boy was about four, and began having nightmares. At age five, he told his mother, "I used to be somebody else." After some extensive research, and the help of a Hollywood archivist, Ryan found a picture of the man he believes he was in his past life - a man that died 50 years before he was born.

Ryan recalled that he had two sisters, had been married five times, and other facts that pointed his parents to Marty Martyn. Martyn's Hollywood career included a role as an extra in a Mae West film, and a storied career as a talent agent. In all, Ryan 'recalled' 55 facts about Martyn's life.

This certainly isn't proof of reincarnation -- but it sure seems like a possibility, doesn't it? Let us know what you think.
