Tony: That is one reason why I refrained from trying to put explicit times. For example, what about the case of a person who died under hypothermic conditions? For all intents and purposes dead, but still some infinitesimal degree of spark remains. The second reason I refrained from putting times is that time, when free of physical constraints, does not seem to run according to our laws of physics from accounts given of NDE/OBE's.-Hypothermia is a very special situation. Look up the Pam Reynolds hypothermic surgery for a brain aneurysm. An amazing story, but a very unusual situation. Not a resuscitation, but a planned hypothermic surgery, but in an induced anesthetic hypothermic coma she knew what was happening. Remember as a cardiologist I've done a number of resuscitations. We follow specific guidelines because we know the time limits are so stringent. The leading researcher on this issue is Sam Parnia whose book "Erasing Death", 2013, is the leading publication on this developing field. I recommend it highly.
