I am sure most of us don't know this! We lose 21 gm of weight after we die and this loss of weight is because of loss of life or soul from our body! Duncan MacDougall a physician from Haverhill, Massachusetts, hypothesized and attempted to measure the mass of the soul by measuring the difference between the live and dead bodies. He concluded that the human soul weighs about 21 gm! There after there have been many controversies about this theory but this concept is popularly known as 21 gm theory and the experiment is known s 21 gm experiment! Did you know about this? Now having known about it how do you feel about it?

That is what the inference of the experiment! Many people never believed this experiment and there were many controversies too! This experiment was never even repeated! So I am not sure if we really worth 21 gm or more!
