6. For the first time in history, scientists were able to record a person's brain activity at the moment of his death. This happened when an 87 years old patient with epilepsy who was undergoing brain research died unexpectedly from a heart attack. Canadian scientists had a unique opportunity to analyze changes in brain function 30 seconds before and after cardiac arrest. The study results showed a significant increase in “gamma oscillations", which are typically associated with memories and dreams. This observation may provide scientific support for the long-standing hypothesis that in the last moments of life, people can experience fragmented memories of past years.
