Where does the energy for muscle flexing come from in a dead fish?
Without a heart circulating blood (and ATP), My expectation would be that the muscles would quickly run out of power.
If you do that test where you apply electricity to a dead frog's leg to get it to kick, it will only work a few times before it's out of juice.
