Death isn't a single switch that shuts down your entire body at once. When your heart stops beating and your brain goes silent, trillions of cells inside you are still alive, desperately trying to keep themselves running. Death isn't a single moment, but a slow and surprisingly complex process that can last for weeks.

What actually happens when you die? What makes death so mysterious, and which cells are the last survivors within your body?
