I had a near-death-experience some time ago--I was caught in the Kansas City Flood and swept under the front of a parked car. I grabbed the front bumper and braced one foot against the front wheel, but was slowly being pulled down under. I could breathe, but was also coughing on water. Then all of a sudden, I felt euphoric, and felt like letting go. But (my mind, I guess) said to me, "You CAN'T DO THAT TO KAREN!" Karen is my little Daughter and I then fought to keep my grip. Two brave young men then waded out and pulled me out from under the car and took me to the near-by hospital where they pumped some water out of my lungs. About 40 people died that night, and I gave thanks that I wasn't one of them. I later researched that experience, and found that when the brain is dying, it releases its whole load of endorphins--thus the euphoria. Not scared of death--but prefer to go on living my life to it's full length. Happy at 83.

  2. Yes, but at the same time I'm curious to know what happens after death. I believe there is life after death, I don't have a religion no heaven or hell but your concious is still alive somewhere and you meet dead people. If I was sure what happened after death I probably wouldn't be scared.
  3. Everyone is scared of death, we are genetically programmed to avoid death.
    Even adrenaline junkies fear death which is where the thrill from their stunts comes from.
  4. Death is scared of me.
