Mark Sheppard is opening up about a run-in with death.
On Saturday, the Supernatural alum posted a selfie on Instagram which was noticeably taken from a hospital bed. There were multiple electrodes stuck to his tattoo-covered chest and he was in a green hospital gown. He gave the camera a humble grin, and then revealed quite the shocking reality in his caption. He wrote:
Whoa, scary… And it gets SO much worse. He explained:
WTF! SIX heart attacks? Brought back from the dead FOUR times?! He really is Supernatural!

He referred to the heart attacks as “the widowmaker,” which, as he described, is when you get blockage in your LAD artery. For context, the American Heart Association reported that only about 12 percent of people who suffer widowmakers outside of the hospital survive.
He went on to thank his wife, Sarah Louise Fudge, the Los Angeles Fire Department, and the Providence of California Saint Joseph‘s hospital staff, noting that without them, “[he] wouldn’t be writing this.” He said:
Wow. However, he seems to be recovering well, and said at the time:
He’s SO lucky!
In the comments, his Supernatural co-stars sent their well wishes. Misha Collins wrote:
