You are thinking only of the physical body. Read about Near Death Experiences. The people who actually die can float above their body on the operating table or wherever their death takes place, hear and see what is going on as well as hear and see heaven or hell == then are usually sent back.
Their lives are changed forever....many of them becoming Catholic.
I am very skeptical of near death experiences (you really capitalize that?) I don’t attribute it completely to a dying mind tricks but the evidence is so ephemeral that I don’t spend any time thinking about it.

No hope in that!
