A fascinating new study of near death experiences – the largest of it’s kind – has made an astonishing discovery. The study showed that 2 out of every 5 people who are brought back to life from cardiac arrest experienced awareness for several minutes after their brains completely stopped functioning.
According to goodnewsnetwork.org:
The research suggests the light at the end of the tunnel that some people believe is the afterlife may be, more importantly, an extended second chance at this lifetime.
The brain normally shuts down completely, about 30 seconds after the heart stops, but multiple studies by a team of researchers called AWARE (AWareness during REsuscitation) are pushing that time frame, suggesting people can be resuscitated much later than previously thought.
Scientists at the University of Southhampton spent four years studying cardiac arrest cases in the UK, North America, and Europe. They interviewed 140 of the 300 survivors in their study and found 39% of them had similar experiences.
