Some patients experience hearing old, popular songs, whereas others say that it's like something they've never heard before.
5) Some see horrific things
Although some dying people claim they saw heaven, others describe seeing frightening and mysterious stuff. Some patients have been recorded as saying that they were seeing t he man in black. The nurses don't see anything haywire in the corner where even the patients claim they see something. Some patients identified a man as wearing a dark flat cap and bloodshot eyes before dying.
