  • This is why all the nay sayers who talk against cryonics are wrong...here is proof that it could work some day...despite their claiming cells are destroyed ect ect..the frog is alive and well..and if nature can do it some day we will be able to copy nature and perhaps do much better!

  • AMAZING, INCREDIBLE! How come we weren't told about this in school! What a gyp!

  • Hey I found 1 of these.

    Is it also called a Spring Peep Frog.?

  • Aaaaw, he looks sooo tired! Just wanna give him a hug!

  • but will it blend?

  • whhaaatt the fuck???

  • we really need to understand this more....it would be excellent for cryogenics research

  • @landbridge There is alot we havent been told in school. Critical thinking and logic are rarely taught in school. We are expected to accept traditional norms with out question such as what death is. We are also told to throw out other traditional norms such as the austrian business cycle of how recessions are created by central banks. Keep asking questions and seeking knowledge and you will be better for it. Cryonics is really an untapped mystery to the masses. It holds the key to very long life

  • @jityr2 That would be useful and it is being looked into. It is always better to have an organism produce its own dormancy then to try to force it on a organism that has a different genetic coding.

  • @fromstart2finish They are.. One theory is that the animals body produces biological antifreeze like compounds similar to glycerol that prevent ice crystalization. The cryonics organizations have developed formulas that act in a similar fashion. Tissues frozen that have been purfused with these formulas show very little crystalization...instead they vitrify like glass maintaining the structural integrity of the cells and thus the organism. Cryonis patients benefit from this research as a result.
