I’ve searched and the specific story OP recounted doesn’t appear to have a verifiable origin in documented medical literature or news reports. It seems to be a narrative that has circulated online, possibly as a modern urban legend or a piece of fictional storytelling. While there are documented cases of individuals regaining consciousness after prolonged periods and experiencing significant memory gaps, there is no credible evidence to support the sequence of events described in this account.
It was covered in an episode of Radiolab and they interviewed the guy who experienced all of this. I’m not invested enough to find a source but it’s definitely not an urban legend.
