There is this magazine called "The Week" that my husband gets and in it it had a little article about Out-of-body experiences and what they think/ found out about....
"People on the verge of death, experiencing a psychedelic drug trip, or having an intense dream have all reported 'out-of-body experiences,' in which they look back on their bodies from some other point in the room. One in 10 people, in fact, say they've had the sensation of seeing their own body from another location. But in a new study, Swedish neuroscientist Henrik Ehrsson has created a similar sensation among perfectly healthy and wide-awake subjects by tricking their brains with virtual-reality goggles. Ehrsson asked his subjects to sit on a chair and wear special goggles that allow them to see live video images of themselves take from behind. A researcher stood behind them, extending a plastic rod into their line of vision, and then with, another rod, touched their chest. With their brains confused by these contradictory signals, the subjects strongly experienced a feeling of being touched by the stick. They felt that 'their center of awareness 'self' is located outside their physical bodies and that they look at their bodies from the perspective of another person,' Ehrsson told Science. 'The brain can trick itself.' He said, though, that the experiment only revealed one artificial means of creating the sensation. 'Whether all out-of-body experiences arise from the same causes is still an open question.'"
Thats what it said, to me, it sounds like they only found out where the feeling comes from, they didn't prove nothing really. I still believe in it and always will.
