Nope.  But it does require something much more before we can just say "Oh, well they reported their experiences so their experiences must be true" and jumping to the conclusion that consciousness can exist completely removed from the physical state of the brain.

The point is, there should be no experience while the persons brain isn't functioning correct? A person being able to describe what happened to them while having no functioning brain, that experience also being confirmed by the doctors, is not anecdotal.

The lengths y'all will go to to reject scientific studies when it contradicts your world view is phenomenal, especially since NO ONE has proven that consciousness cannot exist after death of the body, but you'll accept that explanation no questions asked.

Show me evidence that it happened during the time of "no brain function" and not during the transition times from full function, to partial function to no function and/or the reverse.

There is already cognition transition evidence where people see and hear phenomena, it's called hypnagogia and hypnopompia.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
