NDE research gets stranger and stranger:
"One case was validated and timed using auditory stimuli during cardiac arrest. Dr Parnia concluded: "This is significant, since it has often been assumed that experiences in relation to death are likely hallucinations or illusions, occurring either before the heart stops or after the heart has been successfully restarted, but not an experience corresponding with 'real' events when the heart isn't beating. In this case, consciousness and awareness appeared to occur during a three-minute period when there was no heartbeat. This is paradoxical, since the brain typically ceases functioning within 20-30 seconds of the heart stopping and doesn't resume again until the heart has been restarted. Furthermore, the detailed recollections of visual awareness in this case were consistent with verified events."

"This supports other recent studies that have indicated consciousness may be present despite clinically undetectable consciousness. "

From the PDF file:
"a 57 year old man described the perception of observing events from
the top corner of the room and continued to experience a sensation
of looking down from above. He accurately described people,
sounds, and activities from his resuscitation (Table 2 provides
quotes from this interview). His medical records corroborated his
accounts and specifically supported his descriptions and the use of
an automated external defibrillator (AED)."
"Thus, within a model that assumes a causative relationship
between cortical activity and consciousness the occurrence
of mental processes and the ability to accurately describe events
during CA as occurred in our verified case of VA when cerebral
function is ordinarily absent or at best severely impaired is
perplexing. This is particularly the case as reductions in CBF
typically lead to delirium followed by coma, rather than an accurate
and lucid mental state."
Too bad no one could see the little pictures they placed on the shelves in the ER. Their bad luck was that 78% of the cardiac arrests they studied took place in rooms without pictures on the shelves. The one really good case they got was, of course, in a room with no picture on the shelf.
