What really happens when you die?
Due to gravity, blood will begin to pool in the parts of the body closest to the ground after a few hours. This is referred to as livor mortis. If the body is held in the same position for several hours, certain body parts will become bruised, while the remainder of the body will become pale.
Does a dying person know that they are dying?
A conscious dying person can sense when they are about to die. Some people suffer in excruciating pain for hours before passing away, while others pass away in a matter of seconds. People with terminal illnesses, such as cancer, are especially aware of approaching mortality.
