@pokemonkiller20 it's actually called "cryonics". it's not the same. usually patients are "vitrified" (something like freezing) through a cocktail of chemicals.

You're saying Wikipedia isn't a viable source because people can edit it. I'm saying that you shouldn't use Wikipedia as a source at all, but rather the reference that the Wiki article cites.

Imagine if there was an earthlike planet 1 million light years away from earth, and we somehow developed a way to automatically put people in suspended animation to be waken up 1 million years later (use an atomic clock or something). Now all we just have to do is figure out how to make a space craft capable of being powered by *dark matter* and we could move the entirety of humanity 1 million yrs forward that easily. I million yrs ago will feel like yesterday.
Go figure, in the states it is considered an emergency if you have no heat & has he points out there are many acct.s of folks surviving the cold. However if u have no A/C it's NOT an emergency. lt's just considered hot & just deal with it.
And NO ONE survives & is brought back 2 life from baking in the heat & burning in a fire!!

@Galactu5 yeah too bad most people are greedy fucks who could care less about this and more about money. If we had more scientists in our workforce I think science would progress at a much faster pace than it is now.
This is so cool! Imagine suspended animation that could work for many months, or over a year. Imagine I have an incurable cancer. Scientists could take a sample of cancer cells, put me in suspended animation, find a way to kill the cancer, reanimate me and cure me.
@circusboy90210 Of course, with limited resources and space, the choice is unavoidable: less babies or more deaths. In most societies, the demographic transition as been towards a lower fertility rate, so much so that all Western countries except the US are under the fertility replacement rate. Worldwide, demographers expect the Earth population to stabilize between 8 and 10 billion people.
Personally, if I was diagnosed with a mortal disease, I would egoistically ask doctors to cure me.
so you can put this gas in a cylinder and breath it with someone watching in a room with oxagen and that person when you get in the suspended state the person can take the mask off you and yo'll be ok?????????
The cases of suspended animation are by all accounts the exceptions. Their physiology is specially designed for this sort of thing. I do not think that something as constrained as a mammal can realistically do this.
It's not just the freezing, its the thawing. We aren't meant to thaw. Something like the wood frog can freeze solid, but this is a special case because it has the ability to resume. The same does not apply to say a red eyed tree frog

No, I believe Diezungen is saying that insurance companies will not allow for this product to be used on the average American...they will not cover it and the price for such a treatment will easily cost millions. I'm not a conspirists at all, in fact, I don't like them. However, withholding breakthrough medical advancements/new treatments is the US's gov't way of population control.For instance, if there was an instant cure for cancer, would the US allow for it to be used among its citizens?...
NO! Reason is, the gov't makes a lot more money putting cancer patients through dozens of costly chemotherapy sessions (ranging around $300,000/session).
Great, people can now live much more... now we just have to make something valuable with this life. And since we are living more, could we stop making babies in mass production too please?
@SophosVII dont fall into the delusion that population growth is hurting resources, wheather you know it or not, general mills cearals produced enough food last year to feed every person on the planet at least 1 bowl of ceral a day for the entire year, and thats just wheat and ceral products, not even includeing our wide variety of food, its not overpopulation thats hurting the planet, its americas gross resource consumption, we have one of worlds smalles populations yet consume more then others
@bary1234 well thats the problem. the fact is that we have enough food and space for everyone, we always had. have things been better when there were less people in this world? no. there will always be unequal distribution of wealth, it doesnt matter if we're 1, 5, 9 or 15 billion.
@Iker888 :It seems to me that you havent given this much tought. There is easily enough room for 35 billion humans, and enough food too. Downside of that is there is no biodiversity left since we kill all animals, and no plant diversity since we destroy all plants. So theres humans, cow, chiken, corn and rice. Nice planet. (exaggeration for effect, off course)
So if we are herded to one continent (Preferably Australia) and rest of the planet is left for nature, thats proper distribution.
@bary1234 Well yea, I thought you meant human sustainablity, not a gradual decay of earth's biodiversity. It's a good question, though im not ready to answer it; it's nearly impossible to reverse or even stop the constant increase in human population, specially under the banner of protecting earth's varied but fragile ecosystem. It seems that for humans to prosper all other life must be subjugated or exterminated... should this be so? and is there a viable solution?
@Iker888 : Its not really gradual decay, the wawe of extinction going on right now is faster than ever in the history of the planet. Species are dying of, every day, never to be seen again. Biodiversity is not something we can ever fix after damaged, it takes millions of years to develope new animals and plants. Population is increasing on poor countries, and slowly diminishing in rich countries. Aid in form of food and medicine is making the problem worse, people are breeding like rabits.
@bary1234 People are breeding like they always have, the difference is that we manage to keep people alive more often. The only plausible solution I could think of right now would be for developed countries to find their way; reach the status of a modern westernized society (though the latter wouldn't really be a necessity I suppose) and continue the trend of a decreasing fertility rate present in, as you mentioned, the industrialized world (not an easy feat). Population control sounds fishy...
@Iker888 : Population control turns in to naziz real easily. That is so damn hard to do fairly. Plaque that wipes out two thirds of us would be a fair solution. China had their one child-policy for years, and thanks to that there are now 200 million less chinese people. That was awesome success, even if their numbers increased nevertheless.
@bary1234 By the way, yes, in human terms it may be gradual, but relative to the natural processes of the earth it's terrifyingly fast. Nonetheless, don't underestimate natures power to heal itself. A great example are the vast coral reefs of Australia. Over the last decades they had been devastated over various reasons you are probably aware of; yet recently several organizations have protected them from hazards and its recovery rate was amazing.
@Iker888 : What is gradual? Extinction of species and destruction of nature? There is nothing gradual about them, its exponential and unbelievably fast.
Nature will survive, there will be cocroaches and flies and backteria and plankton, and after millions of years maybe some mammals and reptiles and fish appear again. That is not what I would aim for, I would rather preserve this present ecosystem and diversity.
@bary1234 (cont.) From an almost barren sea floor coral bloomed and fish returned. Naturally there are other ecosytems that would recover fast, and others which would take centuries. But several projects in the preservation and restoration of natural sites have shown nature's tremendous resilience. Nature won't need millions of years to present alternatives to the species lost, for it will readapt. There is a growing conciousness of this, and we won't just let everything die around us.
@Iker888 : They were existing fish wich migrated from other areas back to those barren areas. Problem is that we are destroying entire species completely, there is no coming back from extinction.
Off course some other animals will survive, but the ones we destroy are lost forever. As long as there is so damn many humans, animals are going to be killed off.
@SophosVII so dont fall into the delusion that the governments want you to beleive, population reduction is not the answer to problems, i figured people should know this by now... You know who else suggested population reduction was the answer, the Nazis.... We have enough resources right now in the world to raise the standard of living for every single person on the planet to AT LEAST trailer and mobile home efficincy, yet we dont because of the banks stranglehold on those countrys taxes.
@eveilslayer : So when everybody has that lovely trailer of yours, where in that beautiful scenario are all the pandas and tigers and whales? You support the people, what do you do to other lifeforms?
@bary1234 well first of all you need to ask yourself, who actually gives a fuck about your pesmistic comments, go jump through a hoop ya circus faggit if you dont have anything better to say to anyone
@SophosVII and this global warming bullshit is a hoax, yes there has been gradual climate change on the planet for the past 20k years, most scientsts that dont submit to psudoscience beleive its because of increased solar activity because of the sun spot cycles, anybody that seriously falls into beleiveing CO2 is causeing harm to the planet is ignorant, CO2 is plant food, if anything CO2 is helping the planet, the only reason the levels are rising is because were cutting down all the CO2 eaters.
@eveilslayer wow, really? a hoax? do you know we have fucking evidence that during the cretaceous period massive ammount of CO2 were launched into the atmosphere causing a dramatic rise in earth's temperatures which resulted in massive extinctions? over time the earth absorbed the CO2 and temperatures cooled? and that just to cite one piece of evidence of the dangers of CO2 in excess. haha plant food...go back to high school sience and try to learn something.
@Iker888 well im in college and if you knew the basic chemistry, you would know the 5 building blocks of life. carbon, hydrogen,oxygen and nitrogen (CHON) or (CHONP) carbon, hydrogen,oxygen,nitrogen and phosphorus which forms the phosphate groups present in Adenosine triphosphate,Adenosine diphosphate. or if you wanted to get down into the groups CHONPS the S being sulfer which is used in the amino acid cysteine and methionoe. and i dont think any of these crucial elemts would cause warming.
@Iker888 yes there has been a gradual warming over the past 20,000 years which is exactly what happend during the cretaceous period. The reason for the massive burst of CO2 was an asteroid hitting the planet burning the majority of things on the planet and throwing it into the atmosphere which is completely different then whats happening today. where not realeaseing nearly as much carbon into the air now as when that happend. but there trying to convince you we are which is FALSE.
@Iker888 we had a warming period like this during the midevil ages also, but they dont want to account for that, they insist that man is makeing all of the carbon emmision, which we are makeing a good amount but not a fraction as much as an asteroid could make. The real warming of the planet is due to sunspot cycles, the sun goes through a 22 year sun spot cycle which we are aproaching the next cycle, which causes more solar activity they actually beleive this cycle to end around 2013.
@eveilslayer We did not have a warming period like this in the middle ages, besides normal climate fluctuations which do not resemble modern changes in temperature. Yes, we can trace back temperatures in the earth to thousands of years. The sunspot cycle is 11 years (Marshall Solar Physics, NASA, 2010), not 22. These also fluctuate and would not explain the exponential increase in median temperatures that started in c. 1800.
@Iker888 which then the sun will release a massive blast of gama burst and flares, they actually beleive it will knock out the power on earth for a good while before we get everything running again at least thats what nasa is saying. We should start to see cooling on the planet at that point, because what Al gore and the rest of his psudoscientists dont tell you is its not only the earth thats heating up. the temprature on every planet besides earth is heating right now.
@Iker888 and if you beleive anything they tell you, your just as stupid as them and deserve to get taxed for carbon emmisions. which is exactly why there doing this in the first place, its a manner of gaining tax revenue. Do your real homework and quit letting the government feed you psudoscience that you preach like a little sheeple drone ya retard.
@eveilslayer What the fuck does the government have to do with all this? Let go of all your ridiculous conspirational theories for a second and think straignt, we're talking science here.
@Iker888 i am talking science to you. and im telling you whats up, like my opinion or not i really dont care : / all im telling you, is humans are not causeing this rapid warming.
@eveilslayer Sunspots and natural temperature fluctuations have clearly been disregarded as the causes of rise in the median temperature. Do you have any further evidence to support your case? (note: youtube won't let me publish links, so if you wan't so see the evidence i have to present please tell me so and i'll sent you a private message with the information)
@eveilslayer I agree with you as far as the carbon tax, and the sun warming the planets is concerned.
Carbon emissions however, does indeed cause a rise in temperatures. The problem is that even just a centigrade in difference would be catastrophic for many humans all over the world, and is in many places.
The fact that the sun is warming the earth is not something we can do anything about. Carbon emissions however is.
@Iker888 Because if you REALLY want to see carbon emmisions drop, PLANT TREES. QUIT CUTTING THEM FOR PULP. BECAUSE YOU COULD GROW MARIJUANA, WHICH CREATES MORE PULP PER ACRE THEN ANY TREE IN THE WORLD. THANK YOU GOODBYE
@SophosVII stop cutting down the forests and start growing marijuana and regulateing that shit, its a proven fact that marijuana produces more pulp per acer then any kind of timber on the planet, and marijuana can be mass produced, dont beleive the government they are lieing to you.
That's some serious business. think about it. you wear a gps for isntance, that monitors your heart rate, whatever. if it notices an inconsistency, ie- you're dying.. you are given a shot of the "potion" - services are alerted and you are brought back. amazing.
Now I want to know, you'll rot if you aren't frozen, right?
This is a particularly groundbreaking discovery. I remember seeing an article about him in Wired or Popular Science few months ago. You know, it'd be perhaps wise to get a tattoo on your chest saying "if I was cold for several hours w/o heartbeat, resuscitation is still very possible!" Maybe tattoos could have some use for emergencies like that?
This is too anecdotal to really impress me by itself. The research I'm doing after watching it is fascinating, but this isn't a great lecture by comparison.
We hear about Yogis, Siddhas and Monks living in the Himalayas who are considered to be immortals. And even in Hatha Yoga, there is a pose in the name of Kechari Mudra, which when mastered could make one into an immortal. Correlating these factors with those of Roth's gives me a feeling as if we are on the threshold of entering a New Age.
Therefore, there is a limit to how much we can slow the body's metabolism down.
By the way, hydrogen sulfide was a popular method of suicide in Japan in the last few years. Some failed attempts demonstrated this example of using hydrogen sulfide to reanimate the body. You can even create hydrogen sulfide from household products...but I wouldn't recommend anyone trying any reanimation experiments at home o.O.
I think that some of you are misunderstanding the technology. Hydrogen sulfide lowers the bodies demand for oxygen so that we could potentially freeze the body to slow metabolic processes (just like you can freeze food to slow the decay process); however, that doesn't mean that the processes stop occurring. Therefore, your body cannot be frozen indefinitely if we expect to reanimate it. Also, there probably is a limit to how much cold your body can handle before it is irreversibly damaged.
life extension properties of this? pause to sleep each night and reduce overall stress to tissues over adult life, all systems and tissues don't decay from use as much, life longer? this opens up the future for disreputable drugs and experimental treatments with some pretty dangerous avenues.
though i still have to say, genius genius speech. blew my mind.
It`s not that new of an idea, but I thought that tests on large mammals showed no influence on metabolism . The fact that he has a company makes me doubt his reasons. Maybe he's just looking for investors. How could he get to tests on humans without successful tests on large mammals, or record of such tests ?
Shaunt1- the only problem with cryogenics is that we cant wake those people up. We may never be able to. But with this however we can, that's why its so revolutionary.

The cases of suspended animation are by all accounts the exceptions. Their physiology is specially designed for this sort of thing. I do not think that something as constrained as a mammal can realistically do this.
It's not just the freezing, its the thawing. We aren't meant to thaw. Something like the wood frog can freeze solid, but this is a special case because it has the ability to resume. The same does not apply to say a red eyed tree frog

I'm not a conspirists at all, in fact, I don't like them. However, withholding breakthrough medical advancements/new treatments is the US's gov't way of population control.For instance, if there was an instant cure for cancer, would the US allow for it to be used among its citizens?...

bary1234 1 year ago
@bary1234 well thats the problem. the fact is that we have enough food and space for everyone, we always had. have things been better when there were less people in this world? no. there will always be unequal distribution of wealth, it doesnt matter if we're 1, 5, 9 or 15 billion.
Iker888 1 year ago
@Iker888 :It seems to me that you havent given this much tought. There is easily enough room for 35 billion humans, and enough food too. Downside of that is there is no biodiversity left since we kill all animals, and no plant diversity since we destroy all plants. So theres humans, cow, chiken, corn and rice. Nice planet. (exaggeration for effect, off course)
So if we are herded to one continent (Preferably Australia) and rest of the planet is left for nature, thats proper distribution.
bary1234 1 year ago
@bary1234 Well yea, I thought you meant human sustainablity, not a gradual decay of earth's biodiversity. It's a good question, though im not ready to answer it; it's nearly impossible to reverse or even stop the constant increase in human population, specially under the banner of protecting earth's varied but fragile ecosystem. It seems that for humans to prosper all other life must be subjugated or exterminated... should this be so? and is there a viable solution?
Iker888 1 year ago
@Iker888 : Its not really gradual decay, the wawe of extinction going on right now is faster than ever in the history of the planet. Species are dying of, every day, never to be seen again. Biodiversity is not something we can ever fix after damaged, it takes millions of years to develope new animals and plants. Population is increasing on poor countries, and slowly diminishing in rich countries. Aid in form of food and medicine is making the problem worse, people are breeding like rabits.
bary1234 1 year ago
@bary1234 People are breeding like they always have, the difference is that we manage to keep people alive more often. The only plausible solution I could think of right now would be for developed countries to find their way; reach the status of a modern westernized society (though the latter wouldn't really be a necessity I suppose) and continue the trend of a decreasing fertility rate present in, as you mentioned, the industrialized world (not an easy feat). Population control sounds fishy...
Iker888 1 year ago
@Iker888 : Population control turns in to naziz real easily. That is so damn hard to do fairly. Plaque that wipes out two thirds of us would be a fair solution. China had their one child-policy for years, and thanks to that there are now 200 million less chinese people. That was awesome success, even if their numbers increased nevertheless.
bary1234 1 year ago
@bary1234 By the way, yes, in human terms it may be gradual, but relative to the natural processes of the earth it's terrifyingly fast. Nonetheless, don't underestimate natures power to heal itself. A great example are the vast coral reefs of Australia. Over the last decades they had been devastated over various reasons you are probably aware of; yet recently several organizations have protected them from hazards and its recovery rate was amazing.
Iker888 1 year ago
@Iker888 : What is gradual? Extinction of species and destruction of nature? There is nothing gradual about them, its exponential and unbelievably fast.
Nature will survive, there will be cocroaches and flies and backteria and plankton, and after millions of years maybe some mammals and reptiles and fish appear again. That is not what I would aim for, I would rather preserve this present ecosystem and diversity.
bary1234 1 year ago
@bary1234 (cont.) From an almost barren sea floor coral bloomed and fish returned. Naturally there are other ecosytems that would recover fast, and others which would take centuries. But several projects in the preservation and restoration of natural sites have shown nature's tremendous resilience. Nature won't need millions of years to present alternatives to the species lost, for it will readapt. There is a growing conciousness of this, and we won't just let everything die around us.
Iker888 1 year ago
@Iker888 : They were existing fish wich migrated from other areas back to those barren areas. Problem is that we are destroying entire species completely, there is no coming back from extinction.
Off course some other animals will survive, but the ones we destroy are lost forever. As long as there is so damn many humans, animals are going to be killed off.

@SophosVII and this global warming bullshit is a hoax, yes there has been gradual climate change on the planet for the past 20k years, most scientsts that dont submit to psudoscience beleive its because of increased solar activity because of the sun spot cycles, anybody that seriously falls into beleiveing CO2 is causeing harm to the planet is ignorant, CO2 is plant food, if anything CO2 is helping the planet, the only reason the levels are rising is because were cutting down all the CO2 eaters.
eveilslayer 1 year ago
@eveilslayer wow, really? a hoax? do you know we have fucking evidence that during the cretaceous period massive ammount of CO2 were launched into the atmosphere causing a dramatic rise in earth's temperatures which resulted in massive extinctions? over time the earth absorbed the CO2 and temperatures cooled? and that just to cite one piece of evidence of the dangers of CO2 in excess. haha plant food...go back to high school sience and try to learn something.
Iker888 1 year ago
@Iker888 well im in college and if you knew the basic chemistry, you would know the 5 building blocks of life. carbon, hydrogen,oxygen and nitrogen (CHON) or (CHONP) carbon, hydrogen,oxygen,nitrogen and phosphorus which forms the phosphate groups present in Adenosine triphosphate,Adenosine diphosphate. or if you wanted to get down into the groups CHONPS the S being sulfer which is used in the amino acid cysteine and methionoe. and i dont think any of these crucial elemts would cause warming.
eveilslayer 1 year ago
@Iker888 yes there has been a gradual warming over the past 20,000 years which is exactly what happend during the cretaceous period. The reason for the massive burst of CO2 was an asteroid hitting the planet burning the majority of things on the planet and throwing it into the atmosphere which is completely different then whats happening today. where not realeaseing nearly as much carbon into the air now as when that happend. but there trying to convince you we are which is FALSE.
eveilslayer 1 year ago
@Iker888 we had a warming period like this during the midevil ages also, but they dont want to account for that, they insist that man is makeing all of the carbon emmision, which we are makeing a good amount but not a fraction as much as an asteroid could make. The real warming of the planet is due to sunspot cycles, the sun goes through a 22 year sun spot cycle which we are aproaching the next cycle, which causes more solar activity they actually beleive this cycle to end around 2013.
eveilslayer 1 year ago
@eveilslayer We did not have a warming period like this in the middle ages, besides normal climate fluctuations which do not resemble modern changes in temperature. Yes, we can trace back temperatures in the earth to thousands of years. The sunspot cycle is 11 years (Marshall Solar Physics, NASA, 2010), not 22. These also fluctuate and would not explain the exponential increase in median temperatures that started in c. 1800.
Iker888 1 year ago
@Iker888 which then the sun will release a massive blast of gama burst and flares, they actually beleive it will knock out the power on earth for a good while before we get everything running again at least thats what nasa is saying. We should start to see cooling on the planet at that point, because what Al gore and the rest of his psudoscientists dont tell you is its not only the earth thats heating up. the temprature on every planet besides earth is heating right now.

@Iker888 and if you beleive anything they tell you, your just as stupid as them and deserve to get taxed for carbon emmisions. which is exactly why there doing this in the first place, its a manner of gaining tax revenue.

Iker888 1 year ago
@eveilslayer I agree with you as far as the carbon tax, and the sun warming the planets is concerned.
Carbon emissions however, does indeed cause a rise in temperatures. The problem is that even just a centigrade in difference would be catastrophic for many humans all over the world, and is in many places.
The fact that the sun is warming the earth is not something we can do anything about. Carbon emissions however is.

Therefore, there is a limit to how much we can slow the body's metabolism down.
By the way, hydrogen sulfide was a popular method of suicide in Japan in the last few years. Some failed attempts demonstrated this example of using hydrogen sulfide to reanimate the body. You can even create hydrogen sulfide from household products...but I wouldn't recommend anyone trying any reanimation experiments at home o.O.
IceC80 1 year ago
I think that some of you are misunderstanding the technology. Hydrogen sulfide lowers the bodies demand for oxygen so that we could potentially freeze the body to slow metabolic processes (just like you can freeze food to slow the decay process); however, that doesn't mean that the processes stop occurring. Therefore, your body cannot be frozen indefinitely if we expect to reanimate it. Also, there probably is a limit to how much cold your body can handle before it is irreversibly damaged.
