I'm quite sure that if anyone had preformed such experiments, they would not be willing to confess the act to the athorities. These actions you describe would certainly be illegal if preformed the way you are suggesting. On the other hand, there have been many cases reported where someone has been declared clinically dead only to be later revived. Google "near death experience", I'm sure you'll obtain a wealth of information on the subject.
