How many times did Ash "die" in the anime?

Question

When I mean by die, I mean like actually die, but he comes back. I know this is a really weird question.

Answer 1

Well, I can think of 2

ANIME SPOILERS

First in the first movie when Ash punches Mewtwo and turns into stone- all the Pokemon cry and he comes alive again

Then he ALMOST died in Victini and Reshiram/Zekrom where the stones trapped him- then Ash manages to escape.

There are rumours he dies in Tower of Terror but I don't believe he did

Okay thanks I guess lol this was a weird question lol.

Answer 2

In one of the earlier episodes he's in that tower in Lavender Town and some ghosts drop a chandelier on him (and Pikachu) so they can have a buddy. He messes around with the ghosts then gets revived somehow and promises to come back but face it, that kid's immortal. Poor ghosts.
