That show looks dope, gotta check that out
To answer the OP.. my guess is that when we die our physical body breaks down (obviously) and our life energy/awareness just disintegrates into the universe.

Probably?
Speaking of documentaries, I saw a special on the sea floor. A whale died, fell to the ocean floor, and fed many creatures for over a year. The cold of the water preserved the body and a plethora of species fed on it as it slowly decayed for a long time. The only inevitability is that our bodies will decompose fairly quickly unless we are mummified or frozen.

Sent a PM, you should check it out. The way the show is presented reminds me of eerie feeling of waking up in a zombie apocalypse and realizing nobody is around. Animal life is not the only focus of the show, I was fascinated by the disintegration of man-made structures and the realization that we take maintenance of them for granted. Bridges and skyscrapers crumbling, houses being overrun with vegetation etc.

I dunno what you will become, but you body is made out of molecules and organic matter that gets recycled back into organic and non-organic forms. So um, maybe you could become a glacier.
Sub-consciously this is why a lot of people want to be cremated and have their ashes dumped in certain places.

or i could freeze into a block of ice preserved for the humanoids to discover me 1000s of years later.
you're better than that.

Sorry wasn't aware you wanted to take the Mammoth approach, I thought you wanted to die and somehow end up in a glacier. Yes, you could get your body dumped in a frozen climate and hope the ice caps don't melt or you don't get eaten by a Polar Bear.

I know most of you don't believe in heaven.
But I think we all get recycled on earth over and over again because heaven or hell doesn't have room for everyone who ever existed. That reached its capacity a long time ago....

I agree that hell has reached its capacity.
The concept of heaven and hell is very open to interpretation. Some biblical scholars argue that the concept of hell doesn't really exist but if it does MOST people who have in human history have gone to hell. God sent his "son" to die for our sins because hell has reached its capacity.
Look at how ridiculous we sound, we are using a word like "capacity" to describe something that doesn't make any sense to begin with. Props to everyone in this thread using their imagination, human life after death is the biggest mystery and one that spawns infinite possibilities.

I would guess it's like sleeping. The type of sleep with no dreams or anything like that of course.
The idea that we get a rush of DMT making our last moments feel like forever is crazy. You'd be living in a dream thinking it's reality, with no end.... maybe what you're doing right now

If I may ask, what is this human aversion to non-existence and oblivion? I want an afterlife where I perpetually have sex with white women in mansions but is eternal life a good look? I was raised Catholic and I was taught that heaven was you praising God for all eternity :x.
-Does anyone rly want to live forever? Vampires have this appeal that is a reflection of a human obsession with eternal life. A lot of vampire stories actually show the down side of immortality.

I used to think that the feeling of death was like the feeling before birth, if that makes sense.
I wonder what that DMT trip would be like after death

Read some article saying that we use more of our brain during sleeping and dreaming. So our dreamworld could actually be our reality
- 6,384

I disagree.
We use %100 of our brain regardless of consciousness. So it's impossible to use more of your brain when you already use it all. The brain is active at different parts of each sleep cycle. Once you get into REM sleep the brain produces dreams that are meant to percieve and organize information you learned. Not some alternate reality.

One of the saddest days of my life was when I came to the reality that when we die, that is it. The saddest part is the people you once knew and loved will never be seen again, EVER. Honestly I hope i am wrong about there not being a god or heaven in the way most christians imagine it (not word for word in the bible).
Right now I believe when you die it is similar to sleeping without dreams. My worst fear is there being a dream and not being able to differentiate it from reality.So what if you dream about being born again as a baby in this dimension? How could you know if it was real?
I don't know what happens... and it is hard to even begin to imagine what really happens.
