For the first time, a human brain has been continuously scanned throughout the process of dying, and the results suggest our life may really flash before our eyes. Pictured, a real human brain is displayed as part of The Real Brain exhibit on March 8, 2011, in Bristol, England. The exhibit had full consent from an anonymous donor and needed full consent from the Human Tissue Authority. The brain is suspended in large tank engraved with a full scale skeleton on one side and a diagram of the central nervous system on the other. (Matt Cardy/Getty Images)
