A short YouTube discussion (dialogue) in which Mihail Pautov and another speaker compare subjective near-death experiences to rapid psychedelic experiences like DMT. They describe common NDE elements (tunnels, bright light, perceived entities) and mention a hypothesis that the brain may produce endogenous DMT during clinical death.

I've read somewhere that when you have a clinical death, and usually people, when they get back from a clinical death, so their heart, heart stops and it's not beating for two or three minutes and then starts. It starts to beat again. They all describe something similar. They describe a tunnel and they get. Yeah, the light. They get into like another dimension. They see an entity. This entity said something to them like, you didn't finish a job yet, and they get back to life. There's a supposition that our brain is. When he knows you're going to die, he is making his own dmt.
Yeah, I mean, it's not a crazy theory, but it is a theory. There is no question that the subjective experience of near death is very similar to a psychedelic, particularly a rapid psychedelic experience like dmt.
I suspect.
The only place you can really make DMT is in the pineal. And I don't think you could make enough the pineal to get the brain affected so fast. I suspect you're getting the same effect, but you're getting it for a different reason. It's not that there's a chemical driving it, but the brain itself is changing as a result of hypoxia problem, lower levels of oxygen.
