I’ve always heard gave up the ghost applied to machines. I’ve never even thought about it in regards to people. Odd how it basically has the same meaning but is focused on a particular thing to me.
It is possible that I’m using the phrase wrong, I’ve done that lots haha. I always picture an old timey cartoon where the ghost rises out of the person and then returns to the body after doing something
