The most likely thing to have happened was he just didn't die but was in pretty bad way for sure but just survived the ordeal. Then apostles saw him. That in no way proves he arose from the dead like the mythology states.

Of course that flies in the face of Christian dogma, and no doubt any true Christian would pummel me if they heard me say that to their face. But that in no way proves anything either.
