Ivy brought up a good point. I think secretly, many of us aren't as scared about the fact that we will stop experiencing the world, as about the fact that the world will keeping going on just fine without us. My worldview has ME as the glue that holds all my experiences of the world together: and without me, the world as I see it will fall apart.

So death won't only unravel me, it will invalidate everything I "know" about the world.

Perhaps in some cases that might be the case. In mine, not so much - I have no illusions about my role in keeping the world from coming unglued. YMMV of course.
