This philosophy course on death by Shelly Kagan [1] - 26 lectures of 45 minutes - is one of the best courses on anything I have ever watched. It covers many aspects of death, from identity, minds and souls over eternal life to suicide, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the topic.
EDIT: To get a feeling for the course maybe watch lecture 14 first which is also quite close to the article. Not that the first lectures are not interesting, quite the opposite, but - at least if my memory serves me well - it takes quite a few lectures to establish and discuss fundamental concepts before the focus really shifts towards death. If you like that lecture, watch the entire course.
