Given the amount of out of body experiences people have this doesn't surprise me at all. Your consciousness can actually separate itself from your body y'all, not just chill inside your brain for a bit after you die.
Thats fucking terrifying.From Dr Beaurieux's report:
I knew somebody who had a near-death experience when she was a late-teenager. Her and her friend were speeding and drove straight off the road when they missed a turn and hit a particularly menacing tree. The car was totaled and they both very nearly died.
The person I knew was the passenger. She said she wasn't even aware they were speeding. They were listening to the Riot album by Paramore. She was really into it and singing along and the impact of the accident was extremely sudden to her. She had zero awareness it was about to happen until they actually crashed.
She described having her entire life pass before her eyes - just like the cliche - and even though it was instantaneous it was a "deep instant." She felt like that single second reached deeper beneath a different axis of time and she was able to fully re-experience her entire existence in the moment that flashed after the impact. Then she lost consciousness.
In the wake of the accident and during her recovery, she started to realize she now had two memories of everything that ever happened. There was the original memory from when she first experienced them and the second memory from when she experienced them again during the accident. She felt like she lived her entire life twice, in equal proportion, and had double memories of everything that happened before the crash.
So every time she remembered something from her life before her accident, she would have this sickening deja vu feeling. She described it as a 3D image improperly aligned. There's an image underneath in blue and the same image on top in red, but they don't line up right. They're askew. So the blue memory is all the normal feelings and emotions she felt when the memory originally happened, but the red memory only conjured up feelings of extreme terror. She said it was like looking at old photographs and noticing the grim reaper in every photo. And as you flip through the photo album and see yourself as a baby, and as a little kid, and graduating high school, there is a cloaked figure you never noticed before that seems to be as much the subject of the photo as you are.
But worst of all, she remembered her death.
Her double memories end abruptly at the accident. Everything after the accident she remembers normally. So, to her, this termination point feels like her death. So she remembers a timeline of her life where she was killed at 19. When she thinks about herself, there is a prevailing and nagging thought that she was killed in the accident.
And she remembers that girl. She knows that girl. That girl was her. That girl is dead.
She can't listen to Paramore anymore because it brings up too many memories. Twice as many as they should and some that abruptly end. She doesn't like to revisit the moment she went askew.
Of course this could all be hearsay since theres no recorded evidence of this happening. Blinking could easily be muscle spasms or rapidly changing fluid physics affecting eyelid response. The brain could also just be sending panic signals everywhere due to the trauma.
Curious executioners tall tales should not be trusted.

Fantastic claims require fantastic evidence.

Uh - this is strange. I had a near death experience when I was grade 3. I almost drowned. When I went under for the last time I saw myself floating in the water. The next thing I remember is walking around on the beach eating popcorn with no idea how I got there. A friend of mine said his big brother saved me and pulled me to shore.
I didn't have the "life flash before eyes" moment, but that nagging and prevailing thought, yeah, that is definitely there.

true but I don't care because IMO testing on 9 rats doesn't deserve to be published or used as proof in any way. look at how some ppl in this thread are using this incomplete research to prove w.e. point the wanna prove.Funnily enough, it's a bit harder to get ethics to sign off on anaesthetising humans and inducing heart attacks.
And she remembers that girl. She knows that girl. That girl was her. That girl is dead.
That's how she remembers dying.

The way you write these posts makes it sound like a creepypasta. I feel like we're being meme'd here.

But that depends on external factors. Sure, you can keep a person with multiple organ failure alive in the hospital. Let's take medical assistance out of the equation. If your heart fails you're dead.
You're talking about personhood rather than life.
And this isn't a new discovery or anything. Of course your mind stays alive after you die for a little bit, otherwise CPR would never work. The awareness you feel as all your systems begin to shut down is why a lot of people see they can see the afterlife and shit during near death experiences.
Here is a cool video about OOB experiment:

Basically, your brain is fooled that it is at the cameras position.

When she originally told me the story, I asked her what she meant by "remembering her death." She had a hard time describing it. She had to compare it to other things, using similes and metaphors, to help put what it felt like into words.
She started by saying that she knows she lost consciousness. She remembers being pinned inside the car. She remembers being sideways. She remembers her vision going black - which she described as her POV being quickly burned from the center outward. Like her field of vision was a piece of paper that swiftly disintegrated to reveal nothing but blackness behind it. She says this feeling is scary, but she knows that this was her losing consciousness and not her being killed. She knows this wasn't her death because she was consciously fading out, and even after her vision went black. She remembers being disoriented. She remembers being shocked. She remembers thinking to herself "what's happening?"
This is her "blue memory."
Her "red memory" plays out differently. She remembers being pinned inside the car. She remembers being sideways. But her vision doesn't go black. It stays completely clear, crisp, and vivid. But there is no consciousness. No background thought. There is no disorientation, there is no shock, and there is no train of thought. To her, this final image is not the field of view of a living thing. It's like the recording of a video camera that was knocked over. But there's no director. There's nobody behind it. It just lays there recording until it runs out of tape. Then it stops.
That's how she remembers dying.

I mean if you want to believe consciousness ends the Instant blood pressure drops to zero or blood stops moving of course it's difficult to prove otherwise, but I don't see the big deal about thinking that the brain will struggle on under its own residual power for a little while, and maybe in some cases blissful unconsciousness doesn't trigger. They tested rats already and found brainwaves continued for a short time after a clean fast decaptation.
Not promoting this as any spirituality, just it strikes me as too convenient to say in a messy complex system as we have, that there is a neat "off" switch tied perfectly to cessation of blood flow and blood pressure. A lag may occur,
Someone writing that down without corroborating evidence is proof of nothing. It's like saying the bible is true.
He and his team are looking at people who suffered cardiac arrest, technically died, but were later revived.
I'm not gonna get spooked with some random noise, am I?
Interesting article with some actual doctors and physicists talking about quantum theory and consciousness being a separate entity. I dont really think the subject has been studied all that much because its too hard fo scientists to not be working towards their firm belief that consciousness is only created by the mind.

Unless you died in the morgue I wouldnt worry about it lolSo its the ultimate sleep paralysis, good to know. Imgaine being laid out in a morgue with other deceased and being aware of it.
No, this is all stupid. Those feelings are explained by the fact that your brain is still floundering around after death, so you see and feel crazy shit. It's just all in your head.Most will say you're talking nonsense, but odds are you're right. Given time this will be proven to some degree in my opinion. Right now it's conceptually absurd to those who have never experienced anything of the sort, and most metaphysical concepts, in general, are HIGHLY looked down upon by a great number of people, especially those who have this crazy rigid view of science itself.
They think even entertaining the notion of metaphysical concepts is for the "stupid", yet some our greatest mind in history explored these areas, and many could argue that some of sciences most fundamental understandings came from people influenced in varying degrees by ideas that would be considered metaphysical, etc.
Curiosity and openness, especially to that which was considered absurd at the time has been proven time and again as a major pathway to some of the most powerful and life-changing discoveries man has ever made and will continue to make (directly or indirectly).
Its much easier to say something is not true, too difficult, is stupid, etc. than it is to think deeply and ask questions into how something could possibly be true if true. This is pretty much how the impossible becomes possible in any field of study.
