gib65 Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 There's a study out there that proves the body loses 3/4 oz. of weight at the instant of death. Has anyone heard of this study? Does anyone know where to find its publication? If anyone believes in these results, do you know if it's been replicated? If you believe in these results, do you have any other explanation other than the "soul" leaving the body? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternate explanation: the beam scale Dr. MacDougall used was limited in accuracy and precision by the motion of the patient before death, and four data points does not a conclusive study make.
