What Do We See When We Die?
Показать описание
Scientists finally have clues about what we see when we die. For the very first time, scientists have recorded the brain waves of a dying person. The recordings indicate that there could be some truth to the popular statement “my life flashed before my eyes” when someone has a near-death experience. An 87-year-old male went to the emergency room and rapidly deteriorated while hooked up to an EEG machine that captured his brain waves as he passed from a heart attack.
Immediately following cardiac arrest, scientists noticed changes in the brain waves involved in higher-order cognitive functions, including information processing, concentrating, memory retrieval, conscious perception, and the different stages of dreaming, possibly indicating the brain was actively engaging in memory recall. What is most intriguing is that this seems to be occurring when the brain is shutting down at the end of life.
This is not the first time we’ve seen the brain activity in a dying person—some patients who have been pulled off of life support have had simplified EEG recordings taken, though they’ve been limited to frontal cortex signals.
This, however, is the first case of detailed recordings that may be able to shed some light on what we experience when we die.
The team working with the patient was able to capture about 900 seconds of brain activity and focused most of its analysis on the first 30 seconds before and after the patient’s heart stopped beating.
Immediately following cardiac arrest, they noticed changes in the brain waves involved in higher-order cognitive functions, including information processing, concentrating, memory retrieval, conscious perception, and the different stages of dreaming, possibly indicating the brain was actively engaging in memory recall.
life after death, afterlife, near death experience, is there life after death, what happens after death, what happens when we die, what happens when you die, can we be immortal, what we see when we die, what we see before death, what happens to the brain after death
