What Happens To Your Body After You Die

However, your brain takes a few minutes to die

There are two types of death, cardiac death and brain death. Brain death occurs when the brain is the first organ to stop, while cardiac death is when the heart stops first.Cardiac deaths are far more likely, but the concerning thing about that is that when your heart dies first, your brain actually stays alive for up to 10 minutes.Scientists discovered that your brain seems to still be alive for a while, meaning that there's a chance you may realize you're dying. It's obviously a little bit hard to know for sure though.
