And also will I know if I die cos of overdose? I mean I am in a trip right?

I'm pretty sure that regardless of when you die, you probably don't know you are dead. I'm sure that there are situations in which you are aware that you are dying but, how can you know that you are dead once you lose consciousness?

I'm assuming that death and uncosciousness happen at the exact same moment; I don't see how it could be otherwise unless we start talking about afterlife and such.

I DISAGREE. You can be unconscious without being dead

But you can't be dead without, in the end, being unconcious.

It would be difficult to process such information without a functional brain.

unconsciousness is temporary while death is perminant.

If a person is sleeping & someone places a cyanide capsule in the sleeping persons mouth & cracks it on their tooth so they breath it in, they may suddenly wake for a second before death. In that one or so seconds I do not think the person will have enough time to register what is actually going on; that they have been poisoned. The person will only know that the body is having a seizure/convulsions. i am not exactly sure how cyanide works, but I know that it attacks cells & prevents them from using oxigen; so it would be a respitatory failure that leads to death, & who knows how long that takes.

I watched the Germin war film 'Downfall' which is about the last days of Hitler & in it 6 kids are given a lethal dose of cyanide & it took just a few seconds for death to occur. They twitched a bit (maybe a small convulsions) & then lay still, though they did not open their eyes (they were given sleeping pills prior). Freaken great movie btw.

After death there is nothing. Not a thing = doornail.

LOL!

I see. Well, I'm also inclined to think that one would probly not know whether they died or not and perhaps even have a perpetual kind of dream where they thought they were alive and considered everything real, no matter what kind of incredible dream/nightmare it may be. But ultimately the question is insoluble, as there's no research that can account for any posthumous experiences....afaik.

Be Cool!

don't use that tone of foam on me!


and also, death is death your dead, the body dies no more animate unless you get bit by a zmobie, but is a zombie consciouss, is the person aware of what their reanimated bodty is doing without being able to control it?

oh wait.


nevermind

This is like the most freaky, surreal and introspective thread. The bad news is we'll be dead, the good news is depending on your viewpoint we'll all get to find out one day, of course we all won't be sleeping when we get that chance.

I don't know why...but this reminds me of dane cook - exaggerating girlfriend.

GF: "I got home from work today...I took like a 100 hr nap"
Dane: "No you did not, you'd be very sick if your taking 100 hr naps. That's a coma...say you took a coma after work and I can follow the story."

GF: "I took a coma..."
Dane: "100 hrs? Was it about 100hrs? That's a great coma, thats a good coma"

Moholik: ....and this morning he woke up dead

Soyomon: how in the hell do you wake up dead?

Moholik: cos you're alive when you go to sleep

Soyomon: so you telling me that you can go to bed, dead & wake up alive?

Moholik: you can't go to bed dead, man. That shit would be redundant.

Soyomon: No, it wouldn't. Cos you can go to bed & not be dead, & you can die but not be in a bed

Moholik: But you are in a bed, man. That's how you wake up dead in the first place, fool.....
