When you die 'you know you're dead because your brain keeps working', scientist claims
• https://www.foxnews.com, By Harvey SullivanWe know we are dead when we die because our brains keep working to make us aware of what's happening around us, haunting new research suggests.
I call BS on this,...and I can,...because I have been dead. I had a cardiac fibrilation,...similar to a heart attack but different,...wherein my heart stopped and I lost consciousness. I was dead. Fortunately, I had implanted in me, for just such an eventuality, a pacemaker/defibrilator that sensed my heart had stopped and shocked me back. I never felt a thing, and was not entirely sure I had passed out. I had simply gone black. Nothingness. I was only aware of what occurred 3 weeks later at my scheduled cardiologist appointment, when they did their routine diagnostic interogation of my implant to verify everything was ok. The database listed what had occurred. All I knew is that I was sitting on the couch and suddenly felt very tired and my vision dimmed. At an unknown time later, I was awake again, not knowing I had been clinically dead.
