The same thing happened to me today and has happened many times. To make it worse when I came out today after it just booted me I was stuck stunned In the mask room. I restarted the game then was stuck stunned in the heart forge. I could not use the hearth or link to the graveyard in the help character stuck section. I had to go deep into the ticket process and finally there was a option to move the character, which finally just set me outside of Org. Lost my chests and it did not send me a recovery email, so they are just lost. I have lost so may vessels from this not working and now to lose the loot also is beyond discouraging to say the least. I hope blizzard takes this issue seriously and fixes it soon.
Failed two out of three times this week. I have no masks, so it isn’t masks. Both times sanity went to zero, not health, no mobs around. (Was letting the last bit of sanity run out to get that 500 bonus and finish the area.)
I’d like to add that submitting a bug report in-game worked for me, but you only get a few hundred characters to describe what happened. The details of where, when, etc. can’t fit in the in-game report.
Today it happened in The Valley of Spirits in Orgrimmar, going after the Valley of Spirits boss, but waiting to get the +500 sanity before taking him on. Yesterday it was in The Drag, after killing that boss, letting the sanity drain out. Previously, in the Trade District in Stormwind, it worked properly. Not in combat, but sanity drained, IIRC. I agree with the people who suggested an icon pop-up to make sure you know it happened (to convince those who think “you just missed it”).
4/11/20 Still broken. Had a pull go bad and the talent failed to revive me. I did stay dead on the ground for about 60 seconds unable to release before it pulled me out of the vision.
After dying numerous times without being revived (and kicked out), it appears to me that it 100% of the time doesn’t work when you are in combat. A few weeks ago, it worked when I was not in combat and just let sanity run out to benefit from this talent.
So you engineers, look into this pronto, since tens of thousands loyal fans (for now) rely on that premium feature. If you can’t fix it, get the Everquest engineers from Sony to fix it.

I think you are right. I’ve had it fail several times this week with different toons. Just had my pally die to Alleria when sanity&health went to zero. I had used my last orb before attacking the cathedral guards, since I was down to 20% sanity or so. I figured I’d go into the battle with Alleria with 150% sanity. Nope. Now that I think about it, I’ve been in combat every time it has failed. If I had known, I would have waited until my sanity went to zero, gotten the 500 back, and then attacked them. I know from experience, I can finish the two guards and still have sanity left. Run to the entrance, and then use the last orb. Sigh…
Just chiming in, my first vision run of every week per character has the Emergency Cranial Defib not happen, but all runs after that it works fine. It’s hard to say if it’s 100% of the time on the first entry of the week because I’ve often not needed it on the first run, but needed it on the second run and it’s worked, even though I never did anything to trigger it on the first run of the week. But yeah, if I need it on my first run of the week, it fails me.
Also, if I’m in a group, it will also fail to work, just had my priest carried and it never went off once despite being rezzed 4 times throughout the vision by other party members, but started working in the run after it.
I just had this research talent fail to revive my character. I died to sanity loss while fighting the Voidcrazed Hulk in Orgrimmar. It was with five masks active and I had assumed it would work properly and thus decided to save one of my two remaining sanity orbs. The last time I had to rely on the revival it worked, but that was probably several weeks ago.

Still not working 100%. Actually I have never had it work, but I have heard of others having it work so it must sometimes. I hate horrific visions with a passion as the imbalance is absolutely absurd, but having this not work when I finally decide I have to do them just reconfirms that I need to go back to not doing them ever.
Was very disappointed failing a solo 4 mask SW first time, counting on this to proc, yet ended the run instead. Please fix this, cannot be that difficult.
Visions have been out for how long? This is still happening. I understand that you gave up on BFA (and rightfully so) but my character is completely stuck and there is nothing i can do. Furthermore, there is no guidance on what to do.
I just got the talent, was afraid to die not being sure it would work…so does it? can you die and immediately get revived with 500 sanity and full health?
May 7th and I have made 4 runs today and it never worked. On my Main.
Happened to me last night…engaged boss in lost zone and was trying to save an orb… ran out of sanity and was kicked from instance…rabble rabble

Still bugged, how is it possible for Blizzard to go so long without fixing this garbage? Can we even get a response?
It’s not a bug, you’re dying again or losing your sanity again before the “res” cast goes off. You are not immune while it’s animation plays.
Still bugged. The buff is being removed upon start of the vision when wrathion finishes casting. Last week when it was stormwind I could see the buff in the buff bar the entire run until I procced it on purpose. Every single Org run I have done this week the buff is being stripped off at the start.
Incompetent company.

Legit just did one today was in the Valley of Honor has not died ran out of sanity mid fight and it just said NOPE I was kicked out. Its extremely buggy. It will work like 70% of the time. It is unreliable.

You probably ran out of sanity due to avoidable/interruptable mechanics. The boars on Rexxar are notorious for this. They chunk your sanity for quite a bit and if you have many of them up, they chain cast it. If it were a five mask run, they would eat through 500 sanity in seconds.
All of these people making these claims that it’s not working, yet no videos of it or combat logs of it…
I don’t buy this claim for a second. There was no indication whatsoever that it triggered. It simply proceeded to kick me out much like it did prior to purchasing the research trait.

That’s right, there isn’t any indicator when it DOES go off, if you have the trait. There’s no cast bar or anything. There’s a short animation, where you can’t do anything. During that time, you still take damage and sanity damage. If you take 100% of your health or 100% of your sanity damage, before the animation finishes, you die again.
This is why Blizzard hasn’t “done anything” about it because it’s not a thing. You’re simply dying again. Also, some people are popping the defib during a run, without realizing it and then when it “doesn’t go off” later in the run, they claim it’s broken and that it never went off; when in fact, it did already at some point.
