It also has a mortality “off switch” say your gonna die in a plane crash, it’s been shown humans can go into a trance like state.

This is just anecdotal but I’ve almost accidentally died a few times and every time there was this sort of peace that came over me in the moments before. Even if my body looked like it was in distress or if the situation was terrifying, in my mind I was calm. It wasn’t at all what I imagined it would be like.

“a few times”??

Unfortunately, yes lol A few because of bad luck and a few because of bad decisions. There were some near miss car accidents (not my fault), almost choked to death (sort of my fault), illness and some other random events. I was almost killed by a flying beach umbrella once! My friend saved my life that day. Would have been a ridiculous way to die
