    There’s no such thing as a nice peaceful death. I’ve witnessed what people medically consider the “die peacefully in your sleep”. People still spasms and throw fists and kicks after losing consciousness. It usually just happens when no one is watching and lasts only for a minute or so while the brain stops working completely.

        It is, but it doesn’t look like it from the outside. The body still moves and trashes about for a while after consciousness has presumably faded. Hell, bodies sometimes sit up on gurneys before embalming.
