When you are dead, how will you see without eyes to collect photons and a visual cortex to process them? How will you feel without nerves? How will you think without a brain? Do you all think this stuff just happens by magic, or what?
Enjoy life while you are alive. There is no afterlife after death.
Point taken.
But how do you know there is magnetism or radio waves? There are things that exist right now which we can't see with our eyes, for example.
Perhaps there are aspects to our existence which we can not see, feel, hear, or touch with our physical nerves.
Perhaps there is an essence of us that is eternal.
And yes, we cannot see, feel, or hear this essence with our eyes or nerves.
