Near Impossible?

How would you repay someone for saving your life?

as in from a near death experience. I'm not sure how I need to explain this for It to sound right but It seems like there would be no way for you to thank a person enough.. That person saved your life... kept you from death's doorstep.

there are no words that would be equivalent to such an act of [kindness]

hope you catch my drift >.<;

maybe there are no words but if you save that person's life I am sure that they would know what you mean.

There is no way to repay someone for that gift except of course saving their life.

I think just being alive and happy is payment enough for the other person to watch.
