I'm not sure if you guys have ever heard of Dr.Duncan MacDougall but basically he was a man in the early 20th century who set out to scientifically prove that people have a soul and that the soul is a material object and therefore has mass. He weighed six patients and each time each one died they lost about 21 grams. No scientist to this day has a logical explanation of why.

I've read aout this, always thought it was cool.
But i'm sure that the atheist came up with some explanation. , like blood settling ... or something
Kind of like NDE's, they can't explain it so they ignore it because it challenges their faulty beliefs

Exactly but his experiments even state that he tested certain variables like the last breath leaving the patients body, if the blood settled it would actually make the body heavier (more pressure) like you said they have no excuse so they ignore.
