Oh no, that's his knife lodged in my gut. I'm blacking out, too much blood loss. I can't die now! I had so much to live for! I can see my parents smiling as they tuck me in as a child. My school days as a lanky teenager, worrying about homework and girls. I see the day I got The Call and meeting up with my four new friends. You know, after seeing that sequence of relevant scenes either exposing parts of my Backstory or using somehow familiar visuals I see that this can't be the end. I have to get up and fight! That, or it's just my brain going into overdrive, and I really am dying. Characters using this trope go about it in two ways. In one, the audience is treated to a mini Clip Show of Stock Footage or Flash backs. In the other, a character experiencing a harrowing experience says his "life flashed before [his] eyes". In that case, a common follow-up is mentioning how the flashback was awesome, boring or too short. Truth in Television. According to Wikipedia, the phenomenon is known as life review and is a widely occurring experience of people seeing much of their life history in chronological sequence and precise detail during near-death encounters. Compare Contemplate Our Navels, Dying Dream (where the entire story is revealed to be this), and Regained Memories Sequence. Really Dead Montage is a meta version. |

In the first Dune novel, Duke Leto Atreides' life flashes before his eyes as he succumbs to the poison gas he released in an attempt to kill Baron Harkonnen which only killed Piter de Vries. The moments that stand out the most are the happy times he shared with Paul and Jessica, in particular the day he taught a young Paul how to fly a kite. | |

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has a variant. When Snape dies, his memories come gushing out of his head as the Pensieve fluid, which Harry is able to collect. The memories Harry views form a series of short vignettes from key moments in his life which give Harry and the readers an idea of who Snape was as a person. | |

We're only shown a brief scene of Sheep grazing, the narrator explaining that since Sheep is a sheep, his life being uneventful is to be expected. | |

Played with in Arrow After Oliver Queen is fatally stabbed in his duel to the death with Ra's Al Ghul (he got better), there's a montage of his friends and loved ones, ending with Felicity Smoak who he'd finally given a Love Confession to before taking part in the duel. Oliver dies again during the Crisis on Infinite Earths (2019) but is resurrected as Spectre. Before this happens Oliver sees flashes of his battles with Big Bad's from previous seasons, driving home that every fight in his life has been leading up to his final confrontation with the Anti-Monitor. |

Downplayed twice on CSI: NY: Sheldon gets trapped underwater while he and Danny are scuba diving for evidence in "The Deep." After helping rescue him, Danny asks Sheldon if his life had flashed before his eyes. He replies that the only thing he saw was the Medical Examiner, "Sid Hammerback standing over me firing up the rib spreader." Adam and Stella have a similar conversation in "Green Piece" after Adam is injured when a car bomb goes off near him while he and his buddies are playing street hockey. He tells her all he could think about was the little girl with whom he'd shared his first kiss in middle school. |

In Death Parade, this happens as the deceased players start to unfurl the reasons as to how they wound up at Quindecim, a place where the fate of their souls are decided. This is done on purpose - the arbiters make it so that the players' memories are released slowly throughout their games so as to show their true colours. The players usually don't remember until right until the end that they're dead. | |

In DCU Infinite Holiday Special issue #1, Supergirl gets to answer some of the Christmas letters that get sent to Superman. One of those letters is from a girl who wants to see her father. However her father is an asshole who doesn't want his daughter to know he is a screw-up. Supergirl convinces him to clear things up with his ex-wife and daughter through an unorthodox method: she lets him drop from a height of 29,000 feet, hoping he will see his life flashing before his eyes, including changes he would have wanted to change if he had gotten more time. | |

Shrek: In Shrek 4D at Universal Studios, after Donkey and the other main characters are sent over a waterfall, he says, "I'm sure my very life is flashing before my eyes!" Shrek the Third also has Gingy going through this when Prince Charming threatens him. Apparently he's been in prison. It breaks him to the point he starts singing "The Good Ship Lollipop." Played for Drama in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, when Puss, now down to his last life, panics when the Wolf actually manages to draw blood in their fight. The Wolf picks up on this and taunts him with his fear. It happens again briefly during a later encounter, appropriate as the Wolf reveals he is Death itself. |

Attack on Titan When Eren's losing to the Armored Titan, he has a flashback to his days training in hand-to-hand combat alongside Annie, and he briefly wonders if it's a case of his life flashing before his eyes. It ends up giving him an insight he uses to get the upper hand on the Armored Titan. When Marlowe takes part in a Suicide Mission against the Beast Titan, with his comrades dying left and right, his last thought is of Hitch, the girl he's implied to have feelings for, shortly before a rock hits his head at high speed, killing him. |

This is how entry into Heaven works in Supernatural. After someone dies, they must follow the Axis Mundi (the road through Heaven) to reach the Garden in the center before entering their own personal Heaven. Along the way, they will relive their best memories from life. The road and Garden will also appear how the person expects them to, or as images from their memory, such as a two-lane highway and a botanical garden. | |

Garfield: In one of the comics the titular cat says, "My life just flashed before my eyes. It looked like a fast-food commercial." Not surprising considering all he does is eat and sleep. The electronic scale says "If I had eyes my life would be passing through them". |

Played around with in various Discworld novels: Death states that humans do indeed see their lives flash before their eyes before they die, but this happens starting from their birth, and is called "living". (He says this a lot - Death doesn't have many pearls of wisdom to give out, he doesn't have the capacity to understand most, so the ones he can show up often. People in his line of work are kind of stuck to a theme.) Also in Discworld, it's mentioned as early as The Light Fantastic that Rincewind had seen his life flash before his eyes so often that he could sleep through the boring bits. Vimes has done this once or twice, complete with him hoping they could skip a few bits. |

Averted in Dolphin Island. Mick falls into Snowy the orca's pool and thinks she's going to eat him, but instead she gently nudges him with her nose. Afterwards he tells Johnny, "You know, it isn't true about recalling your past life at moments like this. All I thought about was those teeth. I wondered if I'd go down in one piece, or whether she'd bite me in two." | |

He flashes back to protesting the integration of the University of Alabama in 1963, getting a ship captain drunk and causing the Exxon Valdez oil spill in 1989 and creating Jar-Jar Binks for George Lucas in the late 1990s. Roger then remarks "I did it perfectly" and gets ready to be hit before Stan saves him. | |

In the Young Wizards novel High Wizardry, Dairine relives all 11 years of her life in the span of several milliseconds when the Motherboard downloads all of her memories. This happens to everyone the first few times, apparently. It happened to Roshaun when Dairine took him there in Wizards At War. The whole planet is a wizard computer chip with (almost?) unlimited memory space. You expect it to not do this to everyone it can? |

In the anime version of Vinland Saga, Gardar has a series of flashbacks to his time both as a slave and before becoming one, as well as a Dying Dream of being reunited with his son as he bleeds out and slowly dies. This was created for the anime; in the manga version we saw the events only from Arnheid's point of view, and there the two simply talked until Gardar was too weak to continue due to his wounds and blood loss. | |

In Chapter 75, Marcille has been impaled via Telefrag by Mithrun, and is about to either captured or killed. She sees the entire adventure up until that point inside her head, which consists almost entirely of the many painful or embarrassing moments she experienced. She laments that if they had just given up, she wouldn't have suffered so much for naught, but it ultimately renews her resolve, because it's not in her nature to just give up. | |

Gundam: A split second one in the finale of ∀ Gundam, where we finally see what's in the mind of the former Moonrace soldier Corin Nander when bears witness to the full power of the Turn A and Turn X, which reveals pretty much everything one needs to know about his past and why he was so afraid of the Turn A, calling it a "Gundam" when no one else had. What does he constantly see? Wing Gundam Zero. Played completely straight in Mobile Suit Gundam 00 when Lockon dies. |

Before its completion, a press release for Life, the Universe and Everything gave this as the way Arthur learned to fly: he was so taken aback by some of the things he saw as his life flashed before his eyes after jumping off a cliff that he neglected to hit the ground. The scene played out differently in the completed novel, of course. | |

In the last episode of Death Note, as mortally wounded Light Yagami runs away from those who have just exposed him, he begins to cry softly as he has flashbacks his younger self, innocuous and well-meaning, and finally sees a vision of that same younger self walking past him as he runs towards his death. | |

Lost episode Flashes Before Your Eyes has an interesting variation: not only do the flashes triggered by a near-death experience continue after the event is over, they actually are a combination of premonitions and Mental Time Travel. This trope is merely used by a character to describe the weird things happening to him. | |

Superman: The Leper from Krypton: As Superman is dying from an alien disease, he starts seeing images of his past since he was a baby rocketed from a dying world. In DCU Infinite Holiday Special issue #1, Supergirl gets to answer some of the Christmas letters that get sent to Superman. One of those letters is from a girl who wants to see her father. However her father is an asshole who doesn't want his daughter to know he is a screw-up. Supergirl convinces him to clear things up with his ex-wife and daughter through an unorthodox method: she lets him drop from a height of 29,000 feet, hoping he will see his life flashing before his eyes, including changes he would have wanted to change if he had gotten more time. |

Gungrave uses this trope as much as possible. Every character (good and bad) seems to have a flashback sequence or a life flashing experience as part of their death scene. In fact, only the nameless mooks seem to be able to die without fuss. | |

Dollhouse. In "Haunted", Echo is implanted with the personality of Margaret Bashford, a deceased friend of Adelle DeWitt who wants to find out Who Dunnit To Me. It's only a temporary arrangement, however, and at the end of the episode Margaret is about to have the implant erased, 'killing' her permanently, when she asks, "Will I see my whole life flash before my eyes?" Adelle chokes out the reply, "Every single moment." The scene then cuts to the standard erasure moment when all the previous Echo scenes of the episode flash up on-screen. | |

Butthead's life just showed him and Beavis at various ages, but always sitting on the same couch chuckling at the TV (he concludes that his life was cool). Beavis flashes back to when he was just a sperm, hitting on the ova before he gets shoved in by the other sperm. | |

A variation occurs in Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, a modern graphic novel retelling of Little Women. Jo has been angry with Amy for a week after Amy used her story manuscript to make paper mâché, but when Amy is almost hit by a bus during an outing (the equivalent of the original Amy falling through thin ice), her whole life flashes before Jo's eyes, from their mother's pregnancy, to taking care of her when she was a baby, to the present, making her realize she still loves her little sister after all. | |

Interestingly, the order of events shown go from the present time and backwards, showing the events of the series in rewind.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Subverted, in that Ford Prefect uses the flashback in order to gain inspiration on ways to get out of dying in the current situation. Before its completion, a press release for Life, the Universe and Everything gave this as the way Arthur learned to fly: he was so taken aback by some of the things he saw as his life flashed before his eyes after jumping off a cliff that he neglected to hit the ground. The scene played out differently in the completed novel, of course. |

Mad About You: This series has an entire episode revolving around this trope, "Paul Slips in the Shower". As the title implies, early in the episode we see Paul taking a shower when he suddenly slips. As he falls, flashes of random scenes from his past start playing for almost the entire episode. About a minute before the episode ends, we jump back to the present where we see Paul barely managed to grab the shower curtain, saving his life. Note that despite the premise, this episode is not a clip show, as all the footage is entirely new. | |

Discussed in Chrono Trigger. The heroes pose the idea that some "entity" note Word of God says the planet itself is guiding them on their adventure in order to relive the key moments in history. Ayla compares this theory to the trope. | |

Delicious in Dungeon: Used via In Medias Res in Chapter 57, which begins with Laios gravely injured but he can't remember why. This is followed by a series of flashbacks, which confuses Laios even more, until he realizes it's because this trope is in effect. He waits until the memories reach the present day to remember why it happened. In Chapter 75, Marcille has been impaled via Telefrag by Mithrun, and is about to either captured or killed. She sees the entire adventure up until that point inside her head, which consists almost entirely of the many painful or embarrassing moments she experienced. She laments that if they had just given up, she wouldn't have suffered so much for naught, but it ultimately renews her resolve, because it's not in her nature to just give up. |

Doctor Who. In "Time Heist", cyborg Psi lampshades the trope just before his Heroic Sacrifice, only all his memories have been wiped including those of any loved ones, so he has no life to remember. Played with in "Oxygen". As she's dying of oxygen deprivation, Bill remembers putting up a picture of her mother on the wall, the only memory she has of her. |

Blake's 7. Scorpio slams into an asteroid with possibly fatal damage. Villa's response is to get drunk and start rambling on about this trope. One of the life events he relates gives Avon and Tarrant a "Eureka!" Moment on how to repair the ship. After they've left the bridge, Villa reveals he was only Playing Drunk so he could suggest a solution without being 'volunteered' to carry it out. | |

The Grand Finale of Eureka has wormholes opening up all over town. Things get dangerous when they start crisscrossing, meaning people could get sliced in half while traveling through one (Deputy Andy loses an arm, but, luckily, he's an android and can be fixed). In order to close the wormholes, someone has to jump through one with a device designed to collapse them. Of course, Jack chooses to go. As he's flying through it, he sees images from past episodes in the tunnel. However, he comes out the other end just fine. This may also explain his feeling of deja vu when Allison tells him she's pregnant, as this experience may have jogged some memories from an alternate future erased by Henry, in which he and Allison are married and have a family. | |

Later, Tanjiro has the same experience due to being on the receiving end of a deadly attack from Rui. It allows him to remember the Hinokami Kagura his father taught him, which gives Tanjiro the means to counter the attack and go on the offensive. |

A variation of this occurs in Elfen Lied when Kurama blows himself up with his diclonius daughter. A vision of what life could have been like if his daughter wasn't a diclonius and his wife therefore hadn't died rather than how it actually was (thus avoiding the usual Clip Show part of this trope) flashes before his eyes just before the bomb goes off. Bandou plays it straight. | |

Family Guy: In "And the Weiner Is...", Peter gets cornered by a grizzly bear while on a hunting trip and starts to see his before before him. Images of him constantly being held back in the fourth grade appear, with the last one showing him passing hours before going on the trip. In "Stand by Meg", Meg tied up in an abandoned warehouse and, feeling she's doing to die, starts to see her life flash. What she sees is a montage of clips from earlier episodes, and she's not in any of them. |

Mega Man: Mega Man X5: Zero's ending has him witnessing a flashback of his own memories, including a image of his creator, before deciding his end would be the only way to erase the Maverick Virus. The short Japanese commercial for Mega Man Zero 4 begins with a bunch of gameplay videos scattered around the screen, accompanied by sad music. Suddenly, all of them are thrown away as Zero, surrounded by light, dissolves. |

When Ted of How I Met Your Mother gets in a car crash, he says that he didn't see his whole life flash before his eyes - just the important things. This made him realize he wanted to be with Stella. Barney, who gets in a considerably worse crash shortly afterward, has a similar revelation about Robin. | |

Parodied when Toot from Drawn Together is forced by seniors who faked having Alzheimer's so they can be waited on hand and foot to walk the plank into the disgusting nursing home's pool It Makes Sense in Context (or not). As her life flashes before her eyes, we're treated to a happy sounded montage of various foods interspersed with random grim photographs of the Vietnam War. | |

At the end of Mission to Mars, one of the characters is about to fly away on a Martian starship to meet the rest of the Martians. The pod fills with some sort of oxygen-saturated liquid that allows him to breathe (and acts as Inertial Dampening). Just as the ship is taking off, he gets flashbacks of episodes in his life, most of them including his dead wife. While he's not really dying, it's heavily implied that he'll never make it back to Earth. | |
