What does it feel like to die?
Our only clues come from those who've been to the brink and returned. Their bizarre tales of floating out of their bodies, travelling down a tunnel towards a bright light, and seeing dead relatives seem to defy our understanding of science.
But neurologist Steven Laureys believes these sensations are not only real, but can be explained by the human brain.
To prove it, he's putting his own body and mind on the line. He'll spin at 7G in a centrifuge, take magic mushrooms and endure being locked inside a sensory deprivation chamber as he tries to unlock the secrets of these Near Death Experiences.
