Can the near death experience be proven?

I haven't seen any scientific evidence for it as it is more of a feeling than something measurable. It fits more into the realm of the paranormal and parapsychology. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_review Mar 21 09, 8:19 AM

Although it can never be proven, people who have survived near death experiences claim the term life flash before my eyes is true. Car crash survivors claim this extraordinary phenomenon happens in the moments during the crash. Time slows down and the person’s entire life is replayed in flash images through their mind. The images are seen as very quick pictures, and the experience can be recalled after the incident. Once the accident has happened, or is avoided, the images stop and the slow motion feeling that is experienced returns to normal. Medical experts think it may be the brain’s reaction as a way of coping with trauma. The last thing we think of is our most precious memories of loved ones as a way to lessen the trauma. Some experts say that during trauma, the brain is deprived of oxygen, which causes this strange occurrence to happen. The main trouble with the life flash before my eyes theory is that no one can prove it actually exists http://www.wisegeek.com/how-can-my-life-flash-before-my-eyes.htm Mar 21 09, 8:49 AM
