You ever get the feeling you weren’t meant to die yet?From childhood accidents that should have left scars, to cars that refused to start until danger had passed, to narrowly missing a terrorist attack at Parliament… Simon Burridge’s life has been marked by impossible escapes.Some call it luck. Others call it fate. But what if there’s something else at play — a hidden system woven into reality itself? A force that shields certain people from death until they’ve fulfilled their purpose. A pattern we call The Protector Code.In this gripping episode of the Cherrywood Conspiracy Files, we dive deep into Simon’s personal experiences, global stories of “spared ones,” and the theories behind this phenomenon — from quantum resets and predictive systems to whispers of something far darker.Are these coincidences… or proof of a code that won’t let us die until our role is complete?⏱ Timestamps0:00 The feeling you’re not meant to die yet1:01 Welcome to the Cherrywood Conspiracy Files1:22 Childhood accident – no injury2:37 Teenage race – the car that wouldn’t move3:58 The missed Parliament job – spared from an attack5:11 What if it’s not coincidence?6:13 Theories: quantum, biological, technological7:00 Darker possibilities – preserved for the future8:12 “You’re not done” – the chilling phrase9:04 The pattern called The Protector Code10:00 Minimal Intervention Theory explained10:17 The Spared Ones – global stories shared11:22 Simon’s life of near-misses revisited12:20 Does the code ever lift?13:12 Are you being spared too?13:43 Sponsor messages🙌 SponsorsClub Awesome – For autistic children and their families.De Medici Associates – Chartered structural & civil engineers. demidiciassociates.comRight at Home Medway – Quality care in the comfort of your home. rightathome.co.uk/medway | 01634 979000Clearwater Kent – Licensed cleaning & facilities management. clearwaterkent.co.uk | 01634 681885Cherrywood Productions – Award-winning weddings & video. cherrywoodpro.comHindsight Directory – Reach 30,000 homes with your business. hindsightdirectory.co.ukNu Digital – Web design, SEO, Google Ads, and more. nudigital.co.uk🔑 Hashtags#CherrywoodConspiracyFiles #ProtectorCode #NearDeathExperiencesWelcome to Cherrywood Podcast, your source for inspiring conversations and compelling stories.
