Answer 1

In a word, no, your heart does not stop when you sneeze.  From my

perspective, it is hard to even imagine what this would mean.  A sneeze

itself is really a very brief event, occurring in a shorter time then a

heartbeat.  Of course, there is the building up to the sneeze (the "ah" of

the "ah-choo"), but the heart certainly does not stop beating because of

this ah-ing.  Check your pulse next time to prove this to yourself.

As I answer this question, I am trying to imagine just how the heart might

even "know" that you are sneezing.  The heart beats because a small part of

it called the SA node has a "pacemaker" activity.  What this means is that

there is a type of electrical cycle going on that triggers beats roughly

once every second.  Sneezing does not change this electrical cycle, so the

heart keeps beating.  Said a different way, the muscle of your heart is a

big mass of electrically active tissue, and this electrical activity will

not stop because of a sneeze, or anything else for that matter.

And yet, a sneeze is definitely a complex cardiovascular event.  As you

"ah" and "choo", you significantly change the pressure inside your chest,

which in turn affects blood flow and thus the beating of the heart.  Still

further, I assume that a sneeze involves a significant activation of

certain pathways of the "autonomic" (roughly means automatic) nervous

system.  These also innervate the heart and do affect the frequency and

other aspects of the heartbeat.

Answer 2

That's an old wives tale; that's actually where 'bless you' came from. People believed that when you sneezed your heart stopped for a moment, potentially allowing a demon to possess you. Thus, the quick blessing. :-)

Answer 3

About heartbeat I don't know, but your eyes will be definitely closed. Whatever you try you can't keep your eyes open while sneezing.

The heart absolutely does not stop when sneezing. A sneeze lasts shorter than the normal duration of a heartbeat and has absolutely no effect on the heart beating.
