On the Threshold – Near-Death Experiences in the Light of Scientific Research on Dying | Documentary

This Thanatos TV documentary provides an overview of near-death experiences and death research and summarizes interviews from more than 10 years. The central question is: Is there life after death? Time and again, people report amazing experiences close to death: They experience themselves outside their bodies and drawn through a tunnel to an indescribable light. They experience a panoramic review of their lives. Many encounter deceased relatives or have “all-unity experiences.” Scientists offer various explanations for these phenomena: oxygen deprivation in the brain or the body's own drugs. There are also psychological explanations: hallucinations, fear management strategies, protective mechanisms in the brain. Two scientists, physicist Werner Gruber (Austria, University of Vienna) and philosopher Godehard Brüntrup (Germany, University of Munich), look back on their own near-death experiences. How do they assess their experiences? Despite significant neurophysiological findings in recent decades, the phenomenon of “near-death experiences” has remained mysterious. This is because only certain aspects of the experiences could be explained. However, studies show that profound near-death experiences change many of those affected forever—in their religious and ideological orientation, in their personal interests, and in their social contacts. How can this be? The documentary series “Project Thanatos” – named after thanatology, the study of death – explores the phenomenon of near-death experiences in detail. Over a period of 10 years, hundreds of interviews were conducted with people who had had near-death experiences, as well as with doctors and scientists who are researching the diverse experiences of people who have come close to death. The results showed that although those affected describe their inner experiences in very different ways, depending on their own worldview, life situation, and education, the content of all experiences is surprisingly and strikingly similar—across all demographic and religious boundaries. The 100-minute documentary “On the Threshold” – part 1 of the film series – focuses on near-death experiences in the light of scientific research into death.
