Scientist are now beginning to think you are still alive hours after you are clinically dead.

When they cut up organ donors the bodies are strapped down and given anesthetic because the body twitches and struggles. 100% true.

It would suck to find out you could feel the scappal and saw hours after you died.

“Scientist are now”

Climate scientists?

Once the brain is deprived of oxygen, you’re out. So say absolute max of two minutes for any form of consciousness.

But many electrical signals originate from the spine, not the brain. These are reflexes. They respond to not so gently prodding like bone saws and scalpels or that little rubber hammer the doctor taps your knee with in order to check your spine.

Anesthesia can suppress reflexes though.
