I mean it depends. If you get liquified by the implosion of a submersible three quarters of the way to the Titanic, there’s not much of a process.
A very momentary process.
Many who have watched someone die will likely know this
It’s not like the light leaves their eyes and that’s it
My cousin’s breathing stopped, but his heart kept stopping and starting again. He was clearly gone, but certain parts didn’t stop working for several minutes
Yeah nothing about this seems like it shouldn’t be obvious, it takes some time for everything to fail, just like being ‘alive’ and having a single organ fail, you can be in various states of ‘alive’.
My death is when I permanently stop experiencing life.
Not sure what that means for an ‘Upload’ scenario… I guess he’s just a swamp man of me and he’s alive but I’m not anymore… but I’m not signing up for the digital afterlife anyway.
There’s a big difference between mostly dead and all dead.
At what point do I go through their clothes and look for loose change?
The article by the Guardian that is linked is very interesting! I can really recommend reading it to people interested in this stuff.
Thanks for recommending the guardian link. Crazy stories in there and an interesting conclusion on what we’re learning about death.
Makes me wonder about organ donations and if the timing for those may change based on newer findings…
Yes, that is an interesting question as well. I am wondering what the people with near death experiences could still experience from their bodies, because that would make a big difference as well.
And this is why I carry an organ donor card prohibiting taking my organs.
Death is a poorly-understood process and I don’t want doctors under extreme time pressure to decide when to end it.What a low effort article.
These feet are nasty
WTB device to make it a point.
As someone else in here mentioned, a trip to titanic in a private submarine controlled by a rechargeable Xbox controller and a narcissist captain would be a good bet
I need something much cheaper.
