Like if you get shot in the head, your death is obviously instantaneous (in most cases) because your brain is literally gone. Does that mean that after getting shot directly in your heart, you would still be conscious for a little while until your brain stops due to the inability to get fresh blood/oxygen to it?

I experienced this… you def. are conscious. When I was pregnant I had undiagnosed gestational diabetes. It messed with me in many ways, one of them being heart arrhythmias. One day I was at a park with my mom and my first kid and i felt really “off”… so I returned home with them… once there I went into a bedroom and laid down. My heart started racing, then it did a loud THUMP and dead stopped….. I was like what the fuck… I was all alone in the room and knew my heart wasn’t beating and oh my god I’m going to die and I can’t even get up to tell anyone, they will just find me dead….
I started to count, knowing things would go black soon… I got to about 10 seconds and started to feel tingly like I was passing out, and I’m thinking fuck so this is how It ends….then two huge THUMP! THUMP! And then it just started beating regularly, the tingling went away and I’m left thinking
HOLY. SHIT.
