Joseph Hirl

A Boston native, Joey survived an abusive childhood and a brush with the wrong side of the law as a young adult, only to suffer a massive heart attack years after of turning his life around.

Joey had a widow maker heart attack that killed him and he was clinically dead for 57 minutes. A true medical miracle, he recovered from the heart attack 100 percent. While he was dead, Joey experienced a spiritual miracle that changed his entire outlook on life. From an outlaw biker who did not believe in God or the afterlife, he now has a message from the other side to share with the world.

Joey lives in Western Michigan and is a spokesperson for Spectrum Health’s Cardiac Center where he regularly speaks to medical groups and other heart attack survivors on his experience. Joey also has spoken at the Annual SaveMIHeart conference in 2016 and again in May of 2018.
