Over the years, a variety of people have told me that when you sneeze, you are as near to death as you will ever get while alive. Some have even insisted that we are, in fact, dead for that instant when we sneeze because our heart and all vital functions cease.
Of
course, this is a persistent old wives' tale.
The
nearest we ever get to death and momentarily cease all life functions is actually
in that instant when we think we've lost our smartphone.
