What is death like since we'll never experience it?

I have two ideas that could possibly mean an afterlife from the individual's
perspective. Try to debunk these for me.

1. Taking a idea off the omega point theory where the last few seconds of
the universe seem like forever, what if people dying experience pleasure and
colors (like people dead for 24 hours) but experience this feeling for
hundreds of years from their perspective much like certain drugs and slow
down your perception of time. This would enable an afterlife in their minds.

2. Taking a idea off the many worlds theory, what if the person only dies
from our vantage pointor universe. If I am correct, every decision i make,
I'm jumping through universes. So the person could appear to have died in
our universe but from their vantage point they're still alive going on with
their life.
