This actually looks tragic.

It's like it suddenly lost it's outer layer and all the insides spilled out

Bernardo Kastrup thinks single-celled organisms have a private conscious experience. It does sort of make sense when you see the analogy between the bodily boundary of its cell membrane and the apparent mind-body centeredness of our private experience. In his paradigm, upon dying, the cell's private consciousness re-associated with the larger mind, just like its body re-associated with the larger environment.

And he's not that far from truth, probably
