Default 21 grams

ok who else has seen this movie? i just rented it tonight and watched it with my bottle of VAT 69 sittin next to me. well i got confused a lot during this movie but the end kinda made me think a lot. remember when benecio del torro talks at the end and says "everyone loses 21 grams at the instant they die.." he say a bunch of shit after that but this is the part that stuck out to me. is this actually true, if i wasnt drunk id probably figure it out but shit touches me when im wasted. (ps, i typed on word first so i could spellcheck so you homos wont keep pm ing me about not being able to read my shit when im drunk, lol, later bros)

i looked it up so it can be better explained.....

Supposedly, 21 grams is the weight of a human soul. It is said to be difference in the weight of a living person and the same person's weight immediately after they die, a difference that cannot be accounted for by say, the weight of the air in a person's lungs, moisture in the skin, electricity in the nervous system, etc. This urban legend has its roots in experiments conducted by Dr. Duncan MacDougall in 1907 which indicated the human body loses about 21 grams at the instant of death. MacDougall's experiments are not accepted by the scientific community because they were too few, and too flawed in various ways, yet, the legend lives on. This film will only add fuel to this strange legend.

not sure about the 21 gram thing and the soul, but that movie sucked balls. I can't remember a sean pen movie I ever liked. He is such a sniveling bitch trying to educate the world about "kerry", bahhaa I can't help it. But seriously that movie sucked big time, was painfully boring to watch and then after it was over you just realized you wasted 2 hours of your day
