A person is brain dead when a medical professional declares them to be. what the above definition does is leave a loophole to deny any unexplained instances that may occur.

So basically no matter how "dead" the brain may have been, any successful resuscitation just means the brain wasn't really dead...

See how flawed that is?

...the definition I gave is the definition by physicians in the Uniform Determination of Death Act. And it's not the same as a persistent vegetative state - what the layman might call brain dead.
