It is called a near-death experience or NDE.
Typically people feel that they leave their body and are 'weightless', able to float and fly.
They can still see and sometimes can see their own spirit body and sometimes that of a guide or guides (angel(s)).
Then they often see a tiny bright white light. They feel drawn to it and as they approach the feel a very comforting, loving feeling unlike anything they've ever experienced before.
Upon entering the light they often see Jesus, and deceased relatives and other 'kindred' spirits. Typically in the light is a heavenly place for them.
At some point they realize that it is not their time yet and they must go back (to earth). Typically they are not too happy about it after being where they were. At times they have certain gifts (telepathy, more spiritual, psychic, etc.) upon returning to earth.
Very few accounts are negative (hell like). These people do not go to the light for some reason.
Sceptical scientists believe that the near-death experience is produced when the brain is under stress and is not 'real', but a 'biological hallucination' of sorts.
You can read more about it at the resource listed below, facinating accounts of what happens.

When a people die there is one less tribe left on this world, sadly ....
but when a person dies, his body either slowly turns to earth and rocks or it quickly turns into ash, but either way, any so called spirit which is widely (but not necessary correctly) believed to inhabit us returns into the planet Earth's earth or sky in general.
There is no Judgement Day (unless I am wrong but it sure don't seem logical) nor a hotel reception style thingee upstairs.
And the most likely explanation for a warm tunnel of swirling green and purple lights being what they go through when they are dead is just the brain's way of keeping busy & distracted while the busy dies, I believe.

Okay... First of all:
You can't die and come back to life. Death means The cessation of life.(Medical) Not, losing your heartbeat for 2 minutes and coming back to life. You could call this, almost dying or, on the brink of death, not dying.
Second:
I believe if you did something great in this life that you believe was something truly great. For instance, if you saved a child from a burning building, you most people would call that an act of bravery or something to that affect.you may feel good that you did that but if you also got to know that child and touched his or her life, i would deem that worthy of a second life greater than the first. who knows maybe you better life would be in the time of the Renaissance or in 3059. i think the next better life of mine (if i get it) would be a superpower, hey maybe i have a superpower now i just don't know it.

I agree with Mr Sceptic: If they came back, they didn’t really die.
As for the visions of some others: of course you would say you saw something beautiful when you come back from near death and realise that you are still alive. A good feeling creates good visions.
I think the whole question has a lot to do with what you WANT to see!

my great aunt died for a few seconds, she said she saw heavens gate opening and the first person she saw was jesus. if she saw god she wouldn't have come alive again...i don't think. ya i think it's not always the same for everyone, maybe it's what means the most to you.

I spoke to people who were almost dead and they saw the body lying and the spirit floating above.
