Corpse in motion? Dead bodies are still 'constantly in motion' a year after death, scientific study finds

Introduction: A person's life is a process from birth to death. Although everyone's life span is different, everyone will experience death. Generally, the death of the human body is the cessation of the heart and the brain, after which the body will be corrupted, and then gradually become mummified or corpse wax. The body stops functioning after death, but according to the research of Australian scientists, it is found that even one year after death, there will still be different states of movement, and even some movements.

How can a corpse move?

The reason why Australian scientists make the above point is mainly because Australian scientists have seen some unexpected situations on the corpse farm. At that time, there were more than 100 corpses in the farm, and because these corpses were left for a long time, they rotted and so on. This also resulted in a rancid smell permeating the corpse farm. Although it is difficult to stay here, many corpses are also the main places for forensic research, so many scientists have also entered the corpse farm one after another.

At that time, scientists set a research plan, that is, to insist on taking pictures of a corpse for 17 months, each time taking pictures 30 minutes apart. After 17 months of research, scientists also found that the corpses were constantly moving, and their movements were following "their own will". After that, other scientists have also conducted investigations, and the final conclusion is the same as the previous conclusion, that is, the corpse is constantly "moving".

A scientist named alyson wilson usually studies criminology and medicine. In the scientist's research and investigation, it was found that the arm movement of the corpse was the most obvious. First, the corpse's hand would extend from one side of the body to the other side, and after the arm was extended, it would retract back to its original position. Although corpse movement has been demonstrated, this study does not show that life is continuing, but rather that corpse movement is a side effect of natural decomposition.

After a long period of research, the main reason why the body produces movement is that in the process of ossification of the body, the ligaments are very strong, so they are the last to be decomposed. When other stages change and disintegrate, the ligaments will also make some strange movements with the bones. Although many people think this is of little value, in the eyes of forensics, it is a huge help, because the conclusion of the movement of the body can simulate the position of the body before it is alive, thus providing assistance in murder cases and other issues.

Do people come back to life after death? Is there an afterlife in life?

Generally people talk about the afterlife of human beings, but as to whether there is an afterlife for human beings, this question is inexplicable, because no one can be resurrected after death. In fact, there are many people who are dying in life who say that they have seen a tunnel or the future, or a warm world. However, according to the investigation of scientists, it is found that there is no commonality in the world after death, so those worlds that seem to be in the afterlife are just another world created by the brain.

Many times the beautiful world that comes out of the dying is just the brain's comfort to itself. It's just that sometimes people who are on the verge of death are rescued by doctors, so many people will say that they have seen the world after death, but this is only "single-handedly" caused by the brain.

Conclusion:

In fact, many things about death still cannot be explained, such as whether people will be reborn in the afterlife, whether people will travel to see the past, and whether there will be souls after death. Although technology is advanced today, there are still many unknown things, and these things can only be given scientific answers to people by the continuous exploration of scientists.
