Dr. Stuart Hameroff, an anesthesiologist at the University of Arizona, believes a mysterious brainwave spike after death could be the soul leaving the body—a claim shaking the scientific world.
A groundbreaking EEG study found that in two of four dying patients, the brain showed unexpected gamma waves, linked to thought and perception—even after the heart stopped.
Hameroff suggests the energy surge at death is more than neurons firing—it might be consciousness escaping the body, possibly proving near-death experiences are real.
Gamma waves, the same brain activity linked to memory and perception, were detected moments after death. Could this mean we experience our own passing?
While some experts say these signals are just the brain shutting down, others argue it’s evidence of lingering awareness—suggesting we may be conscious after death.
Hameroff’s theory ties into quantum consciousness: he claims our soul is quantum information that leaves the brain at death—and possibly exists beyond time and space.
Researchers now believe the brain may still "think" after death, raising eerie questions: Do we know we’ve died? Can we see or feel in our final moments?
The study’s shocking data challenges the idea that death is an instant "lights out" moment. What if we remain conscious, trapped in a fading body?
If Hameroff’s quantum consciousness theory is right, death may not be the end. Instead, our awareness could simply move to another dimension—a terrifying or comforting thought.
