Yes, I think you're right that Harry must die, too. But remember what 
Dumbledore said in the first book about how, to some, death is the 
next great adventure? And what of Nearly Headless Nick admitting that 
fear was what kept him from the beyond? And consider how hard Voldie 
is trying NOT to die. It's quite possible that, for Harry, death will 
be better than winning the Quidditch C

I don't know, I've had thoughts of Harry dying - visiting his parents and Sirius on the other side, gaining valuable information from them, then striding back through the veil in the Death Chamber, out of the Ministry of Magic, to finish off Voldemort once and for all. We know Harry is special. We know he has abilities that no one else has had - perhaps he will be the first person to conquer death in the Wizarding world.

This could also hold with the Biblical themes in JKR's books. I found OOP to be the most biblical of all - prophecies, the veil, visions of winged animals, etc. Harry could be killed and emerge from "the other side of the veil" after three days.

What think ye?
