A character who is dead or having a Near-Death Experience steps out of his body and observes what is happening with other characters in the story at that time. The events so observed are shown one way or another to be real and not the fantasy of a dying brain. Alternately, the character gets to review key events in his life, providing the justification for a Clip Show. Either variant can turn into yet another version of Yet Another Christmas Carol or It's a Wonderful Plot.
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The sequence usually ends with dead characters moving on to the Afterlife, and comatose ones waking up (occasionally as a Mistimed Revival). Reawakened and revived characters rarely remember the experience as more than a blurry dream, although specific recollections are sometimes allowed for punchlines or An Aesop.

Desperate Housewives manages to kill off its Character Narrator at the start of the first episode. She continues narrating, giving us glimpses into the personal lives of her still-living friends that they don't get to see in each other. She actually appears to Lynnette in one episode.

In Ranma ½, an old man named Harumaki has a foot in the grave already, and he can leave his agonizing body temporarily to go and annoy female-Ranma. He takes advantage of his ghostly form (and wispy, snake-like lower "body") by floating everywhere and trailing spirals around her.

An episode of House (Three Stories) involves him almost dying and having flashes of the other two patients he was talking about, as well as their eventual fates in regards to the legs they were worried about losing. Interestingly, he then claims that it certainly didn't make him believe in anything like God or the afterlife or even life flashing before his eye, just that his mind was creating a hallucination as he died to make him feel better.

Scrubs:
Subverted in "My Lucky Charm": As J.D. tries in vain to resuscitate a patient (with some nurses masking the patient's face from view), a man walks up behind him as he gives the time of death. Said man begins to talk about how seeing himself die like that was strange, even starting to give a speech about death itself... until J.D. turns around to confront him.note It turns out that the man, Jerry, was suffering from Cotard's syndrome.
However, there is also an episode that plays it straight: J.D. gets sick and has to undergo surgery where he has an out-of-body experience looking over Turk's shoulder as he's operating. Turk asks him (though "the ghost" isn't seen) to go away because he can't concentrate.

Sin-Eaters who bear one of the Elemental Keys and the Oracle Manifestation get a fun variant of this — they're able to undergo an out-of-body experience and travel wherever they wish. Thing is, to do so, they must take damage in one form or another. Depending on the Key in question, this may involve being buried alive, setting yourself on fire, getting strangled, or drowning yourself in the bathtub. Mind you, if you successfully pull it off, you're healed of all damage once you "snap back."

In the first season of Saving Hope Charlie falls into a comma and has an extended out-of-body experience where he wanders the halls of the hospital and interacts with the spirits of other dead or comatose patients. It is implied to be a standard experience and that most coma patients who wake up forget most of what they experienced. When Charlie finally wakes up, he remembers all of it and can still see the spirits..

Orpheus split the "Laments" between actual ghosts and living people who were able to project their soul out of their body. Skimmers could do it through meditation, but Sleepers required cryogenic tanks to bring their body to a state of "death" that would allow them to "vacate the premises." In fact, that's how Orpheus got into the "post-life management" business — they were doing extensive research into cryogenics, and discovered an interesting side effect...

In Stargate SG-1, episode "Meridian", Dr. Jackson lies dying of radiation poisoning. While the other characters take turns sitting at his bedside, he is in deep conversation with Oma Desala about whether he is satisfied with the life he led or not. Eventually, he makes himself visible to Jack to tell him to let him die. Then he walks through the active Stargate and ascends.

A variant of this happens Avatar: The Last Airbender; after Aang is electrocuted by Azula in the season 2 finale, he goes into a coma. Between seasons, there was an online puzzle game on the Nick website that featured Aang's spirit (while he was in a coma) in the Spirit World learning about the previous Avatars. While he's not learning about his current life, he is learning about his past lives.

Briefly happens to Gabriel Miller in Sword Art Online. After he gets defeated by Kirito in Underworld, he returns to the real world and sees his own corpse and that of Vassago in the other nearby Soul Translator, and shortly after gets Dragged Off to Hell by the ghost of his childhood friend Alicia, whom he murdered years ago.

In the manga version of Chrono Crusade, Rosette dies and has a vision (or perhaps goes to the story's version of the afterlife) of being on a train. While there, she looks into the glass of her watch to see Chrono saying that he still has hope for her to return. She does, and uses the surprise of her revival to shoot Aion's sword and destroy it.

The season two episode "Epiphanies" gave Battlestar Galactica's on-the-brink-of-death Laura Roslin the chance to remember The End of the World as We Know It. It was the day she got told she had terminal breast cancer, got dumped and fired by the former President, stopped a union crisis, listened as the Cylons nuked her homeworld, got sworn in as the new President, and left a whole bunch of people in the hands of the Cylons. Oh, and she figured out Gaius Baltar betrayed everyone because he was making out with a known Cylon. 'Cept she can't prove it. Luckily, she said Screw Destiny and woke the heck up due to some hybrid blood from the extra-special baby Sharon was carrying.

In the Warrior Cats book Squirrelflight's Hope, Squirrelflight discovers that while she's in a coma, she has the ability to step out of her body and observe what's going on in the Clans in spirit form. Shadowsight later uses this in the Broken Code arc, intentionally eating a deathberry to get himself in between life and death to try to figure something out.

Jacob's Ladder is about Jacob, a Vietnam vet, trying to find out why (in 1975) he's hallucinating (after coming back from the war in 1971). He eventually learns that he was covertly given a drug called "The Ladder" to increase aggression, along with his whole platoon. Instead of attacking the Viet Cong, they attacked each other. It's revealed to be a dying dream when his son, who died before he went to Vietnam, leads him up a stairwell into light, and he dies in a triage tent in 1971, of the wounds received in the battle.

In Family Guy, Peter is struck by lightning and has a Near-Death Experience. He proceeds to steal money from his own wallet and later tries to reenter his body through the mouth, having about as much success as a flesh-and-blood fat man would have trying to climb inside an unconscious person. Death (a recurring character) shows up to hang out with him for a while as part of his Near-Death Experience, and when Peter asks when he's really going to die, he's told it'll be a few years after Lois divorces him. Peter tries convincing Death that'll never happen, and leads him through a bunch of flashbacks depicting their courtship, showing how deeply in love they were. In the process, Peter realizes that he's been taking Lois for granted lately, and has the epiphany necessary to save his marriage.
