I wish I had some of the books here to point you in the right direction of some fantastic reading on this subject.
May believe, self included, that when you die or are very near death your brain releases this chemical that takes you out of life and into death. The same as out body can send antibodies to help fight off infections of a wound or brilliant bodies also know when we are dying and can also help us with that.
Regardless if your heart stops beating and a doctor says you are dead, some studies show that your brain still continues to show some activity just for a little bit after your heart stops. This is when this chemical is believed to be released and into this state a human goes.
A human may THINK it lasts for longer than it does, but in reality it's only seconds or even milliseconds. The same as when you are on shrooms or acid and you think you zoned out for an hour and it's been 1 minute. When in certain states we are unable to accurately log or perceive time. This part has been proven in several studies about how humans perceive time. So we can't expect it to be any different in an hallucinogenic state during the time of possible death, or even during the actual moment of death.
