Cba going back through, in case its been mentioned

Anyone got a theory to Jacob's Ladder? I watched it 4 times to get a plausible theory....
 

Came across this article after reading thru a load of articles on a site that I may have been on due to this thread....

About the ending of Inception, can't remember if someone mentioned it earlier? But if this pans out I think it's rather good:

Cobb's totem was a spinning top: If it kept spinning forever it meant he was dreaming, and if it fell down he was not. In the last scene, Cobb makes the top spin on a table ... and then the movie cuts to black. So did it keep spinning or not? The Internet has been furiously debating this for years and we are no closer to an answer.

The Theory:

... and that's because we've been looking in the wrong direction. The top was never Cobb's totem -- it was his wedding ring all along.
 

The grey, is all that shizzle actually happening or do the wolves just represent what is killing neeson, in the hozzie he is lying drip side of the bed next to his wife, so it could be him that's ill, either that or he is a very inconsiderate visitor and is lying across her drip
 
So like a hallucination/vision of the life he was denied?

Reckon so, the bit about soldiers being spiked did happen, reckon his kid had died, marital problems after tied into the druvs, fantasy about a girl, sort of real time total recall. The boy meeting him to lead him away (to heaven presumably), and that passage that gets repeated about angels and demons is a genuine quote too, Eckhart von Hochheim (sic), so a mix of reality and subconscious stuff at the point of death.

(Incidentally there is some good work on death, dying and what happens by a local bloke Anthony Peake, his book the Daemon is very worthwhile reading, go google )
