I can tell you what its like to shoot yourself in the head and live from it.. You do it, you remember the bang. But everything goes black. You get like long but very quick memories you also get this terrible feeling of regret.. Then its just blackness.

Depends. It could be peaceful, you could never even know it was happening, it could be painful, or voluntary.

Either way it's a complete mystery. One that each and every human being that has ever existed on this planet has or will have to experience. You're no different, and neither am I.

Ive seen a lot of people die in a lot of different ways. It never fails that the ones who live a good fulfilled life are much more peaceful than those who feel they are leaving some earthly business undone.

>>687249669

If it where a slow death, I would assume that it would be a very short stint of complete (inconceivable) insanity.
A slow death would means that the heart stops pumping blood leading to the exhaustion of the bits that the brain needs to do it's thing. Leading to the logic parts to misfire, crossfire or collapse all within the last moments of chemical and neurological reactions. Which I would interpret as an extremely random mix of emotions, sensations or memories. Hence inconceivable insanity.
As for a quick death (say brain trauma), nothing more than a on/off switch for conscience. Nothing.

Terrifying. I still have nightmares about it. Basically some guy tried to drown me. I remember my lungs filling with water because he held me down long enough for my body to force me to take a deep inhale. It's a weird sensation, it's like a violent ripping feeling in your chest while your ears pop and your face is under so much pressure that it feels like it's going to fly off. Then I remember getting cold and sleepy, followed by the sudden sensation of falling 1,000 miles per hour. I don't remember actually being dead. I don't even remember and "blackness" or anything like that...it's almost like time literally just jumped from that to me coughing up water and a bunch of people standing around me.

There is no fucking why. There was random chance that life evolved. random fucking evolutionary chance influenced by envirornment, fed into a fractal natural geometry.

Memories exist not for a purpose, but simply because they fucking exist. When you die they cease to exist.

It is like asking why anything exists and then dies. Why a rock melts into lava, why a star creates light and then stops.

You can learn how it works, but there is never any why it works.

You have not existed for the past 13 billion years. It will be the exact same after you die as it was for all of that time.

Nothingness without even the capacity to comprehend what nothingness is.

I think it depends on the situation but i believe that the last moments are just the same for everyone and its like when ur falling asleep. Youre just shutting down except when ur falling asleep part of ur brain keeps working (and body, logically) but ur conciousness is off. When u die, both conciousness and auto pilot shuts down.

Anyway, im more interested in what happens afterwards

WTF is a soul. A magical download of all of your memories that gets uploaded into a magical afterlife?

If an alien civilization was advanced enough to create an artificial afterlife that downloaded the memories of every living sentient self aware being, then they would also be smart enough to model the entirety of every combination of thought and experience that could ever exist and there would be no need to build an artificial afterlife.

I know what death is like because I'm a fucking G. It grabs your face son, that's all there is to it. It grabs your fucking face and you are consumed by a sense of clarity and oneness that dissolves the biological illusion that is you. It's like falling away from your TV screen into the same thing that's behind all TVs. It's a wall that made everything. Ain't no fucking angels. Ain't no fucking ghosts. When you are gone everything that is you and ever once was you is gone with it and you will never be you again. It's actually pretty fucking nice but our pesky biological machines are hardwired with a little program that makes us avoid it. Those who have met the end before are blessed with the ability to identify this game and a vague understanding of its outer boundaries and limitations but at no point can the biological machine that is a mammal stop being a mammal. You'll see that reptiles, bugs and your mother all go to the same place. It's glorious but you're never gonna want it after you've been there.

Not to sound like an edgelord, but i've always thought it would feel relaxing.
I mean death is basically an endless sleep right?
So you wont be able to worry about anything.
At the same time i think it really depends on the person dying.
I'm a unemployed lonely faggot who sits at his pc all day, so for me it wouldnt really be that bad.
But for someone who actualy has a life, have kids/a buissness etc, it would probably feel like youre leaving stuff undone.

Based on EEG scans this does happen. The whole "life flashing before your eyes" thing is a flurry of self-destructive brain activity. It basically dumps all the memories at once and it way overpowers the inhibition neurotransmitters so time essentially slows down for you.

That's more or less what weed does (at a very very small level of effect), it removes the limiters.

>>687249669
It's actually a big mindfuck to think about. When you think about the afterlife, do we resurrect into some higher form humans can't grasp their minds on, or are we nothing. When we are something higher then, when will we die in that form? Or will we exist forever in that form? Here comes the scary part: if we live forever, what will this mean. Does it mean we will be conscious forever? And what would it take to not exist anymore, and what would that be like... To not exist? The same counts for if there is no afterlife. Say humans that live can live as long as they want, which is a very rational thought in about 30 years (that is if those fucking sand niggers won't fuck the world up). And you choose to live until the end of times when the universe is spread thin. Do you just say peace out guys, it's been one he'll of a ride? And what happens then? Will "god" still be there waiting for the last ones to return, together with your loved ones to embrace your return? And after that? Eternal existence in the afterlife?

I'd rather be nonexistent after I die

I died and was resuscitated after a car accident.

Everything goes black, like you go to sleep. It feels calming as the darkness hits you and then you're gone. Permanent sleep, until they wake you up in a fucking ambulance.

It made me see all the bullshit we care of, and society as nothing but people walking in fear of death, always on edge. Everyone is scared about something.

Death is nice, life is meant to be lived. Fuck what everyone says. There is no afterlife, no heaven or hell.

It's just black. Nothing. No consciousness or muh spirit.

There's a quote (of sorts) that someone said in another thread quite like this. I copied it because I liked it and liked to think it is true.

'Everything in this life is made and adapted to this life. When you die, you experience the dissolution of the material world and it occurs on numerous levels. Any experiences of "Pearly Gates", tunnels of light and harp playing angels would be vestigial concepts of what the afterlife might be and these too will be dissolved. When this world has passed away to you, then you will experience what is beyond life. What we think of now of what that will be are only analogies and relative descriptions where no words would ever fit to describe what is immaterial. The bottom line is if you believe nature has put this much energy into a consciousness and vehicle only to discard both as useless you can only be stupid. More than that, it's a deep existential cynicism born out of trauma and negative, depressive life experiences and no actually rational thought. So you can just fuck off, the rest of us don't need your bullshit'

It's hard to think where the universe came from. Where DID it come from? It's a confusing question that has many answers and even thinking about possible answers makes you think how grant that shit is. So far we're the only sentient life that we know of in the observable universe. Small yes, but considering that it's 92 billion lightyears in diameter it's difficult to think that we're the only things that are capable of seeing so far yet finding nothing.

In the grant scheme of the universe, our lifetimes are insignificant. It's sad to think about. I'd like to think that there's something after you die, but I cannot see any possible way for that to be true.

I've already invested cryonics, the only realistic way to live a longer 'life'. Untested and unproven as it is, it's a chance and a chance that i'm willing to take considering the opposite is nothingness.
