there are other versions of hell which may be more real....
the Tibetan hell is a realm of your own minds making filled with what you fear and dread which become a nightmarish realm
that drives you back to being reborn as the means of escaping it.... sort of like what happens to people in solitary confinement, divorces from sensory in puts the mind feeds upon itself and invents a nightmare world.
those of higher spiritual training are thought to sail through relatively unscaythed...and either come back or move on to some other realm
then there are those who experienced an out of body or NDE when their body went into cardiac arrest and later reported finding themselves in a realm filled with beings who continually ripped their bodies apart in the most painful way, sort of like those hell raiser movies... but since they were not true flesh and blood in that realm, it never ended until their body was resuccitated[?]
