Do you think there is something to learn about this or other
worlds that is so shocking a human might die if he/she were
to learn?

as in the human mind is not able to survive on receipt of
certain knowledge?

maybe if you were to take life way too seriously

and maybe if you had a ridiculously weak heart and sensitive
disposition

people have died in the past from shock after all

what do you mean by "might die"?

if you mean information that might stress a person to the
point of committing suicide, then the answer is
unequivocally yes.

Yeah, what you mean? Die of shock? Not sure this is
possible, you might pass out. It's feasible you could die if
you had a really bad heart condition.

have you seen the BBC documentary called dangerous
knowledge? according to it, those who tried to explain the
unexplainable pushing the rationality limits to the max
drove their mind insane and eventually committed suicide.
especially some geniuses of mathematics, who apparently
discovered that the whole castle is standing on the air
using an extremely logical instrument, have been severely
opposed by the scientific communities of their times.
