Is it true that the brain stays "alive" for 12 minutes without any hea!


Question: Does that mean, that, if you die from a heart attack, some nerves can still be active, and you would feel/think/hear even after you are dead ? Perhaps it would be like...trapped without beeing able to move ?

Come on guys, I thought most knew this. Hadn't you hear before that brain damage starts within 6 minutes of the brain not receiving oxygen. Well, once the heart stops supplying oxygen rich blood it begins to die. So it would be very possible for the brain to last to 12 mins before completely dying. But you feel nothing.

nope

yeah avg is 5 min tho

I think you mean 12 seconds.

I think when you have a heart attack you lose consciousness.

no no no

I don't know, I couldn't tell ya since I'm still ALIVE.

yes if in icy waters

I'm not sure. My mom just recently died and her brain actually was dead FIRST before her body, and the doctors said that was unusual. Usually the body is supported by machines but there still is brain activity.

I'm not sure..

But how horrible would that be..if you could still think..hear...

If you were around people you'd be able to hear them crying

and all you'd be able to think was I don't want to die..I'm too young too die..Don't be sad. Stuff like that..

and if you need to tell them something..
you can't..

wow..
I don't even want to think about that...

maybe the person is still alive...but i doubt that they are still conscious.

yes actualy its still alive for ten seconds.

No, because you are only truly clinically dead if your brain is dead. How could you hear this information, they're dead?

Trapped without being able to move is not as rare as you think. Poison, paralysis, and other neurological disorders can cause that.

You would be unconscious.

The brain remains alive, but six minutes after your heart stops pumping, you're braindead.

Nobody really knows the only persons who ever came back
from the dead have been dead for almost 2 thousand years.
And Jesus who was dead for three days hasn't returned
yet but when I meet him I guess I will know.
