But during the neurological recording, he suffered a fatal heart attack, which showed the scientists an unexpected result of a dying brain.<\/p>\n The unexpected recording showed that the 30 seconds before and after the man’s brainwaves followed the same brain waves as if you were dreaming or replaying memories.<\/p>\n Dr. Ajmal Zemmar, a co-author of the study, said that what the team, then based in Vancouver, Canada, accidentally got, was the first-ever recording of a dying brain, He told the BBC: “This was actually totally by chance, we did not plan to do this experiment or record these signals.”<\/p>\n So will we get a glimpse back at the time with loved ones and other happy memories?<\/strong><\/p>\n “If I were to jump to the philosophical realm, I would speculate that if the brain did a flashback, it would probably like to remind you of good things, rather than the bad things,” Doctor Zemmar said.<\/p>\n “I think there’s something mystical and spiritual about this whole near-death experience,” Dr. Zemmar said. “And findings like this – it’s a moment that scientists live for.”<\/p>\n image credits:PRILL<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.fiveminutesspare.com\/healthandfitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_336552437-300x217.jpg\")
