So the idea that we suddenly have this burst is a quite unusual thing to say. Now, there is one cardiologist, one emergency physician in New York, Sam Parnia, who has studied people who were being resuscitated.

And when you do that, you're either pounding on their chest for a while, then you stop for several seconds to see where their heart started again, and then you do it again, or you may be shocking them and then waiting to see. And in the period when they were waiting between compressions or shocks, he measured the brainwaves. And he found that in about half of them, there was some activity.

Now, I'm not sure that's reliable because these brain waves he was actually measuring also are reflecting muscle jerking around, muscle activity. And when you're pounding on someone's chest or shocking them, your muscles roll jerking. And the few seconds you're taking to look at whether the body's recovering or not is not enough for it to relax.

Furthermore, you reported in this study of almost 500 patients that six of them reported near-death experiences. But none of those six were the ones they found the EEG activity in. The ones that have the brain activity were not the ones that reported near-death experiences. So again, it really doesn't tell us anything.

Not that we've found so far. That doesn't mean we never will, but we haven't found one yet.

Yeah, that's a great question, Jack, because we really don't have the answer. We have lots of accounts from people whose hearts had stopped, and we know that because we've documented it, their hearts are stopped. And we have lots of accounts from people who, as far as we know, their hearts didn't stop, people who were in a car accident and they somehow survive it, or people who nearly drowned.

We don't have any heart measures, but there's no reason to think their hearts stopped. And yet the experiences they tell us are identical. So it doesn't seem that your heart actually stopping is a necessary component to having a near-death experience. That's led some people to say that it shouldn't be a near-death, it should be fear-death experience.
