21 Grams of Soul

This is the weight of a soul imagine what 21 grams can do? This is not a myth Wikipedia The 21 grams experiment refers to a scientific study published in 1907 by Duncan MacDougall, a physician from Haverhill, Massachusetts. MacDougall hypothesized that souls have physical weight, and attempted to measure the mass lost by a human when the soul departed the body. MacDougall attempted to measure the mass change of six patients at the moment of death. One of the six subjects lost three-fourths of an ounce (21.3 grams). Explain to me how you cannot believe? Pictures to arrive at a later date.
