I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not (for the sake of humanity, I really hope you are), but I have a sinking suspicion that you're not. Explain to me how exactly what you said is not made up. You are reminding me of Joseph Smith in this episode of South Park right now:

Psychoblast is dumdumdum.
Well, let's start with some basics. When you die, either nothing happens (i.e., your consciousness is extinguished completely) or there is some sort of afterlife (i.e., your consciousness continues in some capacity). I believe the latter. I would explain, but this thread is not about whether an afterlife exists, but is about what it is like, so let's take the existence of an afterlife as a given and move on.
I think it is easy to see that the moment of death and movement to an afterlife is an abrupt, qualitative transition in consciousness. Have you ever experienced one of those? I think falling asleep and waking are probably the most logical analogies. In the absence of any evidence that this process feels like anything else, it makes sense to initially theorize it would be akin to waking up. This is called extrapolating from the known to the unknown and, in the absence of proof, it makes sense to expect the unknown to be like the known (the law of similarities).
Now, also from the law of similarities, we should theorize that everything is conscious. I mean, I'm conscious. I only know for myself whether I am conscious or not, and I certainly am. It would be absurd of me to assume other people or things are not conscious when my only sample study (myself) is conscious.
Also, we see fractals all around us in nature. It turns out, pretty much everything in the universe can be seen as a form of fractal. Even sentences. Applying the law of similarities, it is likely that consciousness is a fractal, that our consciousness is a part that makes up a whole of a larger consciousness. Similar to multiple neurons making up a brain.
Anyway, from having experienced ego-death, I learned that death is not to be feared because the larger, higher consciousness is immortal and my body is a relatively unimportant, if divinely inspired, physical shell.
Throw all this together and add a dash of habadashery (unless that means hat store, in which case omit it), and the most likely scenario seems to be that our death reunites our fractal / fragmentary consciousness with the next higher level of consciousness of which we are a part. We basically become that of which we are now only a part. Obviously, we cannot know what this feels like, but the most analogous experience we have on a regular basis is the process of reintegrating our consciousness upon waking. In fact, in dreams, we are generally not ourselves, but are a fragment of our self and so when we wake from dreams, we often have to reintegrate the dream-self with our fuller, real self.
The bottom line is, I doubt there can be any more logical guess for what death feels like, than that it feels like the process of waking from a dream -- in which this life was a dream -- and then being reintegrated into the larger consciousness of which we are a part.
I will qualify this to the extent that it may require that our own consciousness is unified and somewhat in touch with the higher consciousness, so that we are drawn up upon death. Otherwise, if our mind is divided against itself and we are rooted into the conflicts inherent to our physicality, it may be that we go the other way, and our consciousness fragments, and we become lots of conscious, albeit inert, organic parts that then get slowly reintegrated into higher consciousnesses (like worms to birds, etc.)
Basically, there is a whole consciousness food chain and you can slip down the chain or rise up it. It really does not matter since, in time, everything works its way up.
