Scientists Discover When You Die You Know You Are Dead
Scientists discover the mind still works after the body shows no sign of life and reveal people have heard their own death announced by medics
One thing for sure is that we’ll never truly know what happens until we are actually dead. In the meantime enjoy life!
(London Independent) Death just became even more scary: scientists say people are aware they’re dead because their consciousness continues to work after the body has stopped showing signs of life.
That means that, theoretically, someone may even hear their own death being announced by medics.
The claim was made by Dr Sam Parnia, director of critical care and resuscitation research at NYU Langone School of Medicine in New York City.
He and his team are looking at people who suffered cardiac arrest, technically died, but were later revived. It’s the largest study of its type ever carried out.
Some of those studied say they had awareness of full conversations and seeing things that were going on around them, even after they were pronounced dead.
These accounts were then verified by the medical and nursing staff who were present at the time.
