Researchers in the US State of North Carolina have made a startling announcement.

In their words, despite the common view on the existence of heaven and hell, they do not exist.

The researchers, however, argue that when a person dies, he goes to a parallel world

Also, they have put forward a theory that after death, a person could relocate to a completely different dimension and be reborn there, according to Planet Today.

The researchers noted that this can explain the emergence of mermaids and monsters. In their view, all these creatures could be the representatives of another dimension.
